in addition to filling the area on the outside mentioned in the first post on this thread you also need, or at least sholud, weld up the inside of the rec floor to prevent the insertion of an unmodified FA bolt

Hiya Bil. I'd say let's eat some king crab, but the radiation and chemo pretty well destroyed my taste buds, and most foods don't taste right yet. I keep hoping it'll get better, but at least I don't puke on food anymore.

Next time we're both healthy and within a few hundred miles of each other, we'll have to get together.

Thanks JBaum-I had a great time having dinner with you, seems like years ago because it was, I'll have to stop out again soon! 42Rocker, I saw the birthday thread, thanks guys! And I will dig out the jig! I am still missing a bunch of stuff lent out from when I was here more, the rail alignment tool, the rivet tool, and worst of all, a converted SA MG34 grip assembly I lent so someone could copy it! :O I hope to be here more, as about all I can do right now is sit! :( I will have to dig out my subguns box and maybe do something with that, I can't lift more than 4 pounds right now! ...bil

I found my jig. I have to use it to weld togethwr a dummy teceiver before I loan it out. I do have some reservations about loaning it. This is my second jig I made. The first one was donated to another web site. It was than lost in the mail. I needed it again so I made a second very complicated solid brass jig. Beleive it or not. One of the memebers who needed it lived in the state where all of the Lost & Found for the East coast USPS goes. He went there & found it! Totally unbeleivable! Just don't want to have this one lost or damaged.

2 rules:

1. never loan it. Rent it out with a huge deposit - enough that you don't care if you get it back. At least $100 more than it's worth in time and materials. No deposit, no rental. 30 day time limit or forfeit the deposit (or some such penalty). If they don't return it on time, consider it a sale instead of a rental. Make another one, pocket the profit for more toys.

2. Insure it for that amount when shipping it, and send it REGISTERED mail. The post office is surprisingly careless even with insurance, but when it's registered, everyone who has possession of it has to sign for it. It keeps it from getting lost, or being left for a few days in a corner or back of a truck. When a name is on the sheet as being the last one to have it, that person doesn't want it around any longer than absolutely necessary, so it gets the fastest path to the destination possible. The renter is required to do the same sending it back to you.

I'm all for helping a buddy, but buddies don't keep and/or lose your stuff.

I finally found mine and it is available for rental. I will use JBaums suggested rules above-$125 refundable deposit, I know it sometimes takes time, have your pieces all ready before you borrow it, one month-30 days-should be enough. It will be sent registered mail as suggested and returned the same way. Also include a street address in a PM, I will mail it to a postal address, but if it doesn't get back to me I will get back to you...After 30 days I will subtract $25 a week from the deposit unless something is explained beforehand. You are responsible for all postal charges each way. That should about cover it. I am not on the site too often so e-mail me at staatsbil@yahoo.com. You guys can figure out who is first...thanks! :) ...bil
