yep that's mine now!
First one is completely finished, tuned, and running like a champ. It is heading out for ano shortly.
The second one, I just had a UL frame/tray finished for it from Travis, and also just bought a bluefork frame. I'm still looking to have someone mill the body but having difficulty finding a machinist wanting to take on the project. It will be milled to be as light as possible. |

Any chance you have calipers to see what around the feedneck was milled and how deep? |

Nothing was taken off the feedneck (At least on the sides). IIRC, the body is 1.005" wide so I kept all measurable widths at 1" minimum (Obviously there are some tolerances in there) |

Lufkon milled it, but I did a lot of hand finishing to get it smooth and round. A few posts up I have pictures of it fresh off the mill.
It has some milling under the solenoid, but not as much as DC would do. Fully assembled, including battery, ASA, and barrel it's ~1.9lbs.

Great to see that people are still making these. Some of these look really really good.

Wow, this one looks really, really similar to mine. I have a galaxy ano it, and it's all assembled but has a leak somewhere in the frame I am hopefully tracking down and plugging this weekend. |

It's got to be one of the solenoid orings. That would be my guess for a frame leak. |

I had an issue with a frame leak too. It was an odd leak though; it would only leak when I tilted the barrel down, or shook the gun, so it was hard to pinpoint. Replaced the solenoid gasket and it went away.

Got my new trigger mostly fitted. I always thought these Angel triggers were ridiculous and finally found a way to have one on a gun.

Ok so figured out why mine is leaking. The stupid body, when it got ano, stripped the first couple rows in the solenoid screws area. What sizes are the screws for the solenoid, and any idea where to get some that might be like 1/4 inch longer. After the first few threads, they're good. But the screws that came with it only reach the first couple threads. Whole freaking gun is done and this dumb problem is keeping it from working  . |

The only thing I have in front of me right now is the noid manual, but I think the bolts are 2 or 3mm bolts. I can measure mine up this weekend if someone else hasnt chimed in. |

Thanks, that helped a ton actually. Can check it out at Home Depot and see if they have any that will work.

Picked up a T2 frame, cyborg/droid board, eyes, vasa, bolt, and waiting on the body. Guess I am committed hahaha
Lots of good info in these threads.
