I showcase firearms and accessories manufacturing in a hobby workshop environment in excruciating detail. NotaGuntuber on Odysee, best, and YouTube, worst.

Updating my pinned post to be my whole playlist. A Tormach Introduction and Tutorial Series (TITS) if you will. CNC is for everyone! Even if you don’t have one yet. You can learn 60-70% of this directly in the free version of Fusion360 and its simulator. odysee.com/@NotaGunTuber:a/T…

Oh, did you guys think 2027 was just going to be more Cerakoted projects? No, no, no. Never stand still.

The two-tone of sandblasted and brushed surfaces goes way harder than it has any right to! @RiptideRails I definitely need to buy a replacement 8” barrel. No going back now! Ha!

Class, does this mean I’m famous now? Serious aside though, it is interesting that this is the one published design that they have of mine. Everything else I publish is specifically marked as non-commercial. But this file’s readme openly says it’s a free for all. 🤔

Reason I only used 5 panels in the workshop, despite buying 6, is because work happens in the office too! It also needs space to hang in-progress projects. Liking the combo of 1 U hook and 1 straight. Cheaper than 2 U hooks too. Need more of that combo and pistol barrel hangers.
Showed up & goes up quick! Hard part will be figuring out what I want to put, where. This does not have feng shui. But getting a feel for what goes best with the various hanger options I bought It's covering normal pegboard, so it's nice the @GunPegboard also takes standard hooks

Sandblast tested my first type II anodizing attempt with 30PSI red garnet (what you would blast for anodized substrate pre-cerakote). This took way longer to eat away than I expected! I now suspect a lot of the “type III hardcoat” I’ve blasted over the years is just bad type II!

Genuine question to those who know how “Paid Partnership” regs work. I asked, they gave a discount code. No ask to post. No ask for anything actually. I like Made in USA factories, so I chose to. Does this count? If someone sponsors a VIDEO and I post about the build, that count?
Replying to @emm0sh
@emm0sh you start a side hustle? Found a Made in USA gun wall company this weekend where literally everything is sheet metal. Panels, hangers, hooks, everything! & it’s cheaper than the Chinese import walls. Probably because it’s all sheet metal. Asked for a coupon. Got. Gon’ try

Better. Still not good enough. And I scrubbed them with simple green, after a long acetone soak and sandblasting! Always the edges. I’m starting to think that I need to be suspending the parts, so that they don’t touch any tank walls, during all stages. Not just the anodizing one

If you follow me for my desktop CNC/Anolex content & you’re not also following DG Machineworks, you’re messing up. Where my series shares through incremental projects. DG shares via raw, in your face feeds & speeds demonstrations and lecture style content youtube.com/@dg_machineworks…

Don’t know how to stop the poll, but results are in! Middle road majority wins. All signs say anodized! Took dye. No conductivity. Surface is highly scratch resistant. Aggressive attack with an Allen key merely burnishes the surface. 1 negative. Uneven dye uptake along some edges
My first attempt at anodizing something in my garage is running right now. How do you think it will turn out?
28%Perfect, first try
62%Visually flawed but funct
10%Fail. You suck.

$10 says the uneven dye is one of two things. 1- Not clean enough before the lye etching step. 2- The only surface prep that was done on this was etching. No blasting, steel wool, wire brushing.

I was warned acid will ruin clothes and to wear old, ratty stuff. So I chose to wear my “clearance is clearance, even with a chainsaw” pants from a few years back.

I really want to examine a Para Ordnance P18.9 If you have one and are willing to disassemble it and take some pictures as well as a few measurements with calipers that would also be greatly appreciated.

More weirdo 10/22 drilling jigs! Yay! And before anyone mentions it, yes, that ledge highlighted in red is purposeful! The original cast versions of these have draft angles that allow parts to fit. CNC version needs features that mimic this! Trigger packs are wider than bolts!

>Pink anodized housings aren’t real and they can’t hurt you. >What I see out of the corner of my eye.
Another instance of bullying works. @VOIDSPECLLC asked if I wanted to try a ACRD. Said no. Not really into that stuff. Ammo is expensive, I’m too poor. They asked again so I said “only if it’s pink.” This was months ago. Got this pic today. Looks rose gold. Still probably out 🤣
