I hope you don't take offense to me saying this. But that is the nicest, smoothest, cleanest thing I've seen you build.
Great work.

No matter where I live. I will always be THE founder of GBNH. So suck it.

Got both halves of the mold completed.

I ran blue marker around the edge of the mold before pouring the second half to make it easier to find after the seam after everything cured.

First pull. The surface is pretty smooth. The gray flecks in the pics are bits of primer that pulled off the buck.

The blue on the pull is from marker on the silicone mold. With the "legs" still on it I think the Gunbox looks like an old TV...

I made a few additional masters/resin pieces:

Also a new set of handles (see thread http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtop ... =2&t=26161)

Let's see what it all looks like together...

More to come...

Seconding this. Roach and I just did some work on his gun box, which included cutting the handle holes, and that looks pretty oversized. Not sure what size of pipe you're using in your test fit picture, but you can see just how much space there is between the edge and the OD of the pipe.

TC-

It was actually an experiment gone wrong. I have some sanding in my future to get the line out.

A bit more progress...

Yeah that handle is way too low, I think it should upper left. easy fix with bondo, you kit looks good, but not great. And I think you need to make it great, and I think you can. Also how are you going to do the trim around the bar graft?
