As anyone who has a received a Super6 can attest to, the detail work on the Super6 leaves no stone unturned. As many of you know, i have contracted out the larger bulk of the raw machining. In a perfect world, i'd just slap these parts together when i get them in and ship 'em out! But it's not a perfect enough world for me and once i get these raw parts in, the party has only begun as each unit will have several more hours of prep work into it before it is deemed worthy to be shipped out.
How do i accomplish this you ask? With a little help from my friends of course! Pictured below are some of my "friends". In every machinist's aresenal is an array of speciality tools, jigs and fixtures we custom make to make our job easier. Pictured below is 8 tools, jigs and fixtures that I custom made to make the finishing process on the Super6's easier. Each and every Super6 is touched in someway by all 8 of these before leaving the shop.
The Contest is "simple". (far from it, but you are going to have to work to win this prize).
1) You must name what part of the S6 all eight are used on (left to right, biggest to littlest)
2) And what their function is for on that S6 part
So for example:
From left to right:
Tool 1- Used on the Switch to hold it while drilling it out
Tool 2- Used on the Adapter to hold in while polishing it
Tool 3....all the way up to tool 8
Whoever can guess what S6 part all 8 tools/jigs are for and what function is being performed or aided by them wins a free Super6! Enter as many times as you want, but don't flood me just to guess. Keep track of things as the hints are given, and it can be solved!
You must either post your answer here or email it to futuresalvation@yahoo.com. If i am pm'd or emailed at my business addy, your entry will be null and void!
I also posted up a pic of the disassembled Super6 to give you a view of the parts.
Don't worry, i'll give some hints along the way
First Hint: The part S6 part names: Adapter, Adapter Center Post, Switch, Switch Brass Contact, Body, Spring Insulator
