There use to be this real cool guy.. he would make stuff and I ( and others) would buy it... I haven't herad from him in  a long time.. and that makes me sad. 

 

Things I want to have for my 15-2:

I want some caps to go on the end of my loose barrels..plastic or AL

I want an 8" barrel in SS 1/12 twist and a slotted light shroud in blue with nothing but a mount for a scope.

I would like "someone" to figure out a "cover" that would fit over the bushing on the crane at the back of the cylinder could be covered. When I shoot 100+ rounds at competition its the one thing to get gummed up and makes it harder to pull the trigger, which in turn affects my score. 

I want a device that I could mount a barrel to that would spin it very slowly end over end. I would use the caps above and fill the barrel with slurry of bore cleaner and pumice. (well its an idea...)

I need a 4" shroud in titanium for my wife. or some other strong light metal. with slots, and  sight designed not to catch on things in her purse. 

I need a 2.5 barrel and shroud so I can sell my spare gun ( if she wants it) to my wifes friend. 

I need moon clips .. about 10 of them. 

 

I need a bumper sticker that reads:

This truck protected by Dan Wesson .357 on days that end in "y". 

 

Mini Gun

Soap Box, Ballot Box, Ammo Box

in that order.

I was wondering, does the cylinder have to be reworked for moonclips?

Buy the tools and start your own shop.Laugh  I'm patently waiting for the next run of BA to be put to market.  It is getting too cold to shoot here anyway.

Yes.

Eric's a one (and a half) man show, and one guy can only develop cool stuff so fast. I think what he's doing is great. Keep at it, Eric!Laugh

Yes, beggars can't be choosers and we are definitely beggars. Wink I am just tickled somebody is making aftermarket stuff for dan wesson revolvers at reasonable prices no matter how long it takes.
 

Can't wait for long ten inch plus 357 barrels and shrouds to be offered in a standard or standard vented profile, also would like to see some 44 barrels and shrouds that perhaps have had the twist tweaked a bit like on the 357 barrels. Drool

Calm down Pinetor! lol2

Very busy working away, the killer is CF said, small operation here. Laugh Sometimes it seems all I do is talk on the phone, order stuff, ship stuff, answer e-mails, and spend time on forums!Wink In other words no making stuff! Frown

I am trying to speed things up where I can, BA finishing may be outsourced, waiting to hear word back from there.

So in the meantime, your patience is needed!

Pinetor, there will be some very cool stuff coming out soon! So hold fast!

Now back to Shoot's projects before he catches me posting this! rofl

That can be double-edged sword, especially for us on the receiving end. The end costs are almost guaranteed to go up, but as long as the purcase price isn't doubled, I imagine there will still be a very strong interest in your stuff.Laugh

Besides, if you can give another fellow (Hotbluer?) some appreciated business, everyone should be happy in the end. occasion 

 

On a side note (and not trying to give you any more work, but)...I had an idea a while back. Is your shop in decent enough condition that you wouldn't mind having your part-timer-helper follow you around the shop with a camera one day? Just thought that it would be cool to see sort of a "behind the scenes" post of what goes on in your shop...sort of a shroud build from A to Z type of thing. Plus, you could put some of those "parts in the making" pics on your website.Wink

If your shop isn't really something you'd like to show off, I totally understand...I have a garage like that.Embarassed lol2  Total mess...Cry

Goodness knows I would be rather estactic if Hotbluer got in the mix and was doing the finish. I mean "HOT DAYEM" DW finishes are well known and respected.

 

Yeah Eric I was just teasing. Ya been laying low so I figured I would prick your ears so know we aint forgot about you. DWF Sign

Yep, Hotbluer. I dunno, it is nice to control costs as much as possible, but on the other hand I think its much better to have stuff available for sale even if it does cost a bit more!

I want to do the shop tour, that is on the list of things to do, the shop I feel is actually not that bad. Laugh Don't know about turning helper loose on the new camera though, lol!
