MacGyver

I've got a friend who went several years working between undergrad and getting his masters, and then again for a few years before he went back for a PhD.  When he speaks about it these days, he talks about having to teach himself calculus three different times...

I'd 3D print it setting the fill at some lower percentage to make it strong enough, but also speed up production.

There was a time when it was considered the patriotic duty of an American to be familiar with the operation of the primary battle weapon of his country (i.e. see the Civilian Marksmanship Program).   I'd love to see some of that voiced back into the dialogue these days...

Sign me up!

^^ there's no need to look any further.

He's really not worth your time - or anyone else's either for that matter.

Y'all should be embarrassed.  This may be the first mention of Celine Dion on a gun forum - ever.  

I've got a 340PD you can try if you like. It's got a fair bit of wear, but it's reliable and packs a heck of a punch with full house .357 mag loads.

I'll take it, Steve.

I didn't realize he was an alumni of Webb School down in Bell Buckle. I think we have at least one other member who is a graduate.

Something just seems off about a chicom 1911...

McMaster.com - they're great - and their shipping is amazing. If you don't have it by then beginning of the week I've got a thread pitch gauge.

McMaster-Carr out of Atlanta. They'll be here tomorrow.

I crushed my 2015 resolution of working out 5 days a week. These days, if I count the 30 minutes of walking I do last thing before bed at night, I get a workout everyday. I had a surfing injury this year that's really put a damper on the last half of my year. PT is making it better, but I've got a ways to go to get my full range of motion back in my shoulder. My immediate goal is to get this shoulder back to where it was in June of this year. Or, maybe I'll just admit that I can't top Johnny Cash's resolutions and stick to what works:

Tell me the thought process behind this?  I'm interested.   I've always gone with heavier than I've thought I would have needed.  Does lighter line allow for better presentation?

I knew y'all would get rid of Carly Fiorina if we waited long enough. I'm still skeptical of how those biometric national ID's are going to work out for us.

A lot of the mini lathes have an inline fuse that is apt to blow if the motor is overloaded.  It's worth checking into if you're using this format lathe.

My enthusiasm far exceeds my expertise, but I'd love to have some plastics and jigs put together by a fellow TGO'er.  Send me a PM, or feel free to post up directly in the thread.

I laugh every time I see you post in an AR thread. I keep expecting to see a show and tell with one of your builds sporting walnut furniture and a lever action.

Hey, David! Good to see you on again! Hope your back is doing okay. That's normal. Each on mine have looked that way.

Did they make Carly Fiorina Vice President because they needed a token woman in this scheme or because she's incompetent to run any of those other newly created departments? I guess it lines up with the GOP's general march towards fanaticism, but I'm not sure biometric national ID cards are going to work out that well. May as well just get us all microchipped so they can find us when they "need us."

I don't think I realized this was still a thing.

One of my favorite holiday traditions...TDR's Christmas pay it forward!

If you're expensing money spent on guns, by definition you have a business. I guess you can pick the IRS or the ATF, but it sounds like you're going to make one of them mad. Tread carefully.

My thought on "enough mags" is that during the next panic I ought to be able to buy a boat and comfortably retire.  Anything past that is just excessive.
