Ok well before I post the raw body I will put the mounts for the detents to save eryone a hassel. I will also do some PDS covers but I need to know where the mount holes and eye holes are on the body. I have already changed my custom body a bit.

I did a guik mockup of the body with a trig frame on it using my shocker frame. I know its kinda cheap but hey its just a mock up.

You forgot the air transfer hole for the valve to the bolt. That is very important.

Thanks, good call.

The distance from the front of the marker to the center of the mounting holes is 1.9965 inches. The measured diameter of the mounting hole is 0.119 inches. The distance to the center of the mouting hole from the top of the body at the feedneck it 1.1085 inches.

[gregicd]

Which holes are you talking about? the tray mounting 6/32 x .19 DP holes or the asa 3/8-24 hole or the valve set screw 3/8-24 hole.

[Spitlebug]

Eye cover and eye tab mounting holes. That way we can have PDS on the marker. I drafted up the eye tab for the eye mounts. I am sure there is a better way of doing it if we are going to use cocker detents.

How do I post a image? I'll show you guys one of my b2k designs I did back in 02.

[Spitlebug]

Post [img ]image_url_here[/img ] without the trailing spaces in behind the "img" in the "[]" brackets. There is a button to do it when you use the "post reply" button at the top of the thread as well.

I like to use Hunt101.com to host my files. They give you a little text blurb to copy and it lets you post the picture in any forums properly.

[gregicd]

Is that a full tray? You are going to have to add some meat to between the two tubes on your design as there isn't a place to attach your eyes (I noticed you have a PDS switch on your tray).

Otherwise looking good!

MORE MORE MORE!!!!!!!

and dude BMX4LIFE, trayless........

[Spitlebug]

Hrm, custom Bushy frame the allows for a true trayless design...

Could re-route the air holes to fit a custom frame and then be able to attach barbs to the bottom. Just a though.

ATM I am getting Solidworks from the Mech. Eng down the hall. Should be able to design stuff myself with just a little time.

[gregicd]

There are no hoses are barbs in that design;>

I did realize that but I dont want to put pds on it since it will make it look ugly lol. I will take the tray out for you guys.

[Spitlebug]

Oh man, PDS isn't about looks it's one of those performance vs. style things.

[gregicd]

I have some PDS eye covers that would look pretty cool on your design BMK4LIFE. Remeber your making a custom marker. Just modding one part of the design would make it look unfinished or plain when you put it all together. My design philosophy: reliability first, performance second, ease of assembly third, looks last.

[Spitlebug]

I like to put it into these terms: F.U.D.S.

Function
Usability
Design
Style
