BudgetFett No. 4 Interest Webley Scott Resin kit

updates?

Well I am happy to say that I am now half way through the paid orders on run No. 1, I am hoping (key word) that I will get through the remaining half before the month is up.

Just as a side note, international orders shipping time frame can be up to three weeks.

I just finished a new mold for the stock, handle and am now casting the barrel in two parts to make it a bit easier for me.
 
Thanks Seven. Not trying to put more pressure on you mate. Just excited to recieve mine.

Casting the barrel in two parts? Like a left and right side?
 
Not a left and a right, but a full shaft (with some excess of the loading chamber) and a complete loading chamber.

It was mainly done so I could cast quicker and easier. Plus I was pulling more unusable barrels then I was usable ones. So, I am trying something different.
 
I'm glad to hear you've perfected your method.

I've been ordering and trading so much lately with waits here and there so I get surprises in the mail to keep me occupied. It's too cold to troop anyway I'm just really excited to FINALLY get a blaster

cheers

Same Here!!! Arrived Saturday.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I could not be happier Seven! This kit is a thing beauty!! Again, I applaud Seven for making this project. Everything was exactly as I'd expected! While this kit will need some TLC, to me that's part of the fun! :cheers (y)

Some more than others :facepalm. But they cannot all be perfect.

Speaking of 'not-perfect', I am growing a small collection of parts that are in poor shape, but don't have the heart to thrown them out. I hate the idea of 'wasted' resin. If anyone wants them, they would need a lot of TLC or at least someone with skills. Just a thought.

I ordered more resin and it should be arriving shortly.
 
If you can put together a complete kit with the cast-away parts, I'm willing to take a shot at that TLC that shinobi mentioned :) Could you take a pica of the parts?

I'll use the same bondo-like polyester filler I used on my SgtFang resin bucket.

Thanks :)

Hi seven,

I'd agree with what Tk1450 said and like him would like to see a pic of what we'd be up against if purchasing these parts.

i PMed you a good while ago regarding a third run

man this kit looks good, i really hope you do get to that third run

Depending on price, and maybe some pics. I would totally be in for a set (or as close as you can get to a full kit) of the bad castings. I'm not skilled, I'm just used to working with really bad kits (not that yours is) so I wouldn't mind.

I would still want too be on the "stand by list" for a 3rd run, but this would give me something to do in the mean time. :) (can't have too many Fett blasters. :) )

Any idea when you may be finished shipping the first run out Seven??

I just shipped out 5 more kits, and the next five are on the table, and should be done and in the mail within this next week or next.
 
OK, here is a pic of the barrel and the handle of the kits that need a lot of TLC. They didn't met the bar, but I didn't want to throw them away and waste the resin. Two of the barrels have a hole in the shaft and one in the middle end fin is broken off (should be two fins). The handles are chaulk full of airbubbles and would need a lot of sanding to smooth out. They are perfectly workable, especially if you are doing a ROTJ (as the barrel gets a face lift anways).

These would come with a everything for a complete kit, but just offering them up if anyone wants to take a crack at a challenge.
