Ali Shin tool parts from 'found' part - Taking Payments

**Mojo-Fett** · 07-19-2009, 01:28 PM

Hey guys,

As some of you may know I snagged what seemed to the last Stylus sweep arm from Mitchells turntable.
See: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f20/anti-security-blade-control-rod-finally-confirmed-32979/

I have been asked by some to replicate this to accompany the shin tool run also from 'found' parts that Bobby-Fett is doing. seen here: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?t=33087

I have re-drawn these in CAD and have passed the files to various new machinists in my area for quotation....

So this is an interest only to guage the quantities?
Altho... I must add this will be a 'limited' run... first come first serve.

*Update* - Ok guys these are gonna be $50 / £31 for the pair (shipped).
Please when sending PP please ensure that your screen name and what items description is on the form.

I'm dropping in next week to see the prototype and ensure that 'everything' is as it should be... pics will be posted.

Should have something next week bro...

**Jango's kid** · 07-23-2009, 11:40 PM

I don't need to see a prototype!!!!!!! Anything that Gav has offered has been spot on!!! Again, thanx for doing this bud!!

**Mojo-Fett** · 07-24-2009, 06:22 AM

Cheers D...

*first post updated with final costs*

**Jango's kid** · 07-24-2009, 11:12 AM

$ en-route!!

Been waiting a long time for someone to make these little buggers!!!

**Bobby Fett UK** · 07-24-2009, 11:22 AM

That is a good price Gav. My original calculations were looking like £75 for the deluxe found part tools, so this cam in under that and even more accurate.

Nice.

Cheers Rob,
Yeah these are only £4 more than what I paid for mine... so within that I'll cover packaging and shipping...

**Mojo-Fett** · 07-24-2009, 11:29 AM

Totally forgot to say?

I have spoken to the machinist today and for those that asked about the knurl...

We will be producing knurled section prototypes (will be posted) then upon agreement the button will be pushed..

**Skupilkinson** · 07-24-2009, 11:35 AM

Sounds good Gav.

**yodakiller1138** · 07-24-2009, 01:50 PM

**Mojo-Fett** · 08-02-2009, 12:47 AM

Small update...

I had some sample knurls sent to me and I wasn't happy with the result. He has borrowed some different sized tools so should have some pics soon? Sorry for the delay guys...

**SaxeCoburg** · 08-02-2009, 03:05 PM

Going to have to pass for now

Money is really tight on my end.

**Mojo-Fett** · 08-13-2009, 01:51 PM

Sorry for the lack of updates guys.. been a tad busy?

I have a new lead on the knurling as I wasn't happy with what i had seen so far, and the new version will not be 'formed' as most knurls are.. but more 'cut'.. should have a prototype very soon!

**FettDad** · 08-13-2009, 01:59 PM

thanks Gav! these are going to be awesome...

**Skupilkinson** · 08-13-2009, 01:59 PM

Happy to stand by and wait for something your happy with bro.

Not that I need it but I find it most reassuring that you're holding off until you're satisfied.

It'll be well worth the wait.

**Mojo-Fett** · 08-13-2009, 02:07 PM

Cheers guys, as you know Skip I have what 'you' have yet the pics have yet a different knurl... so I'm endevouring (sp) to replicate this as best I can... pics should happen the beginning of next week?
I am sorry for the delay...

**Slave I** · 08-13-2009, 06:57 PM

I'd like to be put down for a set please.

**DeepCFett** · 08-18-2009, 09:23 AM

Mojo,

Sign me up for this, I'm sending PP and PM now. I need them sent to BobbyFett to go with my shin tools from him!!
thanks!

**Takemetoyourfett** · 09-03-2009, 11:52 AM

I seem to be late to the party on all the cool stuff. Is it possible to be added to the list? Thanks

**Mojo-Fett** · 09-03-2009, 11:59 AM

You can be added bro...
I'm just sorting out this machinist! I appreciate everyones patience on this and these will be out asap...

**Takemetoyourfett** · 09-03-2009, 12:06 PM

Thanks, and look forward to future updates. Just gettin back started on my Fett project and its nice to see that the dedication is still here after being absent for a couple of years.

**Mojo-Fett** · 10-06-2009, 12:35 PM

So sorry for the late response / Update to this project...

But having my machinist back out prior to launching the run I had to find yet another guy to work along side me.
Needless to say I have and I'm very happy with the work and details...
I'll have these up for a couple of days and if ok with you guys I'm gonna push the button and get these out to you guys!

*pics*

Other than that it measures up perfectly to the found part I have...
