All right. Finally back to it. Started putting together my EE3
The5thhorseman put together an awesome build thread
here that I used heavily to figure out my build.
Started with the grip and made the hammer movable.
Then I moved onto the trigger and trigger guard.
Sacrificed one of my pen springs for the trigger.
Then moved onto making the breech movable as well. Spring loaded the back latch and used one half of a Chicago screw and Standard screw for the pivot.
Then moved onto assembling the grip and stock.
Lastly I made the flash tube from some 1.5" brass sink tube. Assembled the scope mounts with screw from the top down into the barrel. This took some doing to get the nut on. I remembered I had a flashlight with an extension that has a magnet on the end. This worked great for holding the nut in place while screwing in the screw.
Still a lot of work left to do. I need to swap out hardware on the scope mounts as I ran out of the correct hardware and used what I had laying around. Have lots of holes to fill in with Bondo, need to stain the stalk, add all the greeblies, and need to start painting everything. Hopefully will find some time to make some more progress this week.
