Rapid Prototyped Pitch Spacer

[Rosso]

Made this in work hard plastic rapid prototyped printed pitch spacer in 10 mins.

6mm to 1mm. Sets pitch to 1 1/2". How quick is that.

That's quicker than a very quick thing! :biggrin:

Top technology. Draw it up in solid works. Save the file for future adjustments. Hit print key and 10 mins later out it pops finished.

What material is it made from? Are you talking this 3d printer stuff? Is it brittle? Does it polish to a shine? Will it last after recoil?

So many questions, so little time!!  rankster:

Plastic / polypropylene string on a roll. Prints in layers. Black shiny finish needs a bit of finishing but very easy. Yes 3d printer stuff. Not brittle but is porous can be painted. Yes can be polished. Comes in all colours. Fits in between original pad and wood.

Are we talking  - Home 3D printer? or Commercial 3D printer (SLA)    or the uber super Laser Sintering 3D printer (metals)

the results from 2 & 3 are stunning

My brother has used and designed the tech that makes similar from plastic beads thrown in a hopper! He works in aero space! Said it would make a full gun stock to pretty exact fit of original or different if required!! The beads do cost a few quid though as can withstand 500 g force so I don't think recoil would be an issue!!

Nice, what's the effect on your POI when fitted ?  still trying to get my brain around the pitch thing. :fie:

 

[Rosso]

Some say it will shoot higher, others that it will not effect, will try this week end and repost.

Something like this?

Fitted spacer gun pointed high, dropped comb a bit to compensate.

Went shooting, raining windy, everything felt better, scores up. 25 at skeet on first go. Compak Fitasc much improved.

Don't know if it's the pitch alteration of I was just having a good day.

Will persevere and see what happens.
