Feets / Collection / My build Slowly but surely...

Happy Canada Day!

Chassis is coming along. Something something tortoise and the hare... Waiting on my hardwood parts to get CNC'd (buttstock, pistol grip, lower and upper handguard) so I can hand finish them. Shown here is my main steel body for my chassis, a 3D printed prototype of my folding 6-position skeletonized "buffer tube" (attaches to picatinny rears like on the upcoming Makasi) and a 3D printed prototype of an upcoming tacticool handguard design. Hoping to pre-install AK side rails to the chassis so users can use QD AK side rails.

All in all been a busy as hell summer, even though I've been kinda quiet... I'm taking a much needed vacation for a few weeks then coming back swinging this summer. Not shown is an upcoming SKS muzzle brake, AK-style side rail mount and all of my Homesteader stuff. Also gonna start making classic "cheese grater" handguards 'cause apparently nobody else in Canada does anymore lol.

I've been hoarding cardboard boxes.

Are you able to do some type of scope mounting rail while at the same time be able to field strip the rifle?

I don't think I'm articulating myself properly. I'm going to attempt to securely mount one of these directly to my "receiver" body, allowing the user to use these quick-detach scope rails

If it doesn't work (it should) I'm also making a similar AK-side rail (see attached image) for standard wood stock SKS, but it'll work on any SKS stock.

Very cool! Do you know if a hi cal mag adapter will fit in there?

1

u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS Neumann Metalworks 23d ago

Not sure, what are the requirements? The spacing in the magwell is slightly wider than the standard wood stock

u/CanadianGunNoob 23d ago

Very cool!

u/under_hunter82376 22d ago

cool as hell !

u/DarkFar5348 22d ago

Nice to see! Will it play nice with the Hical mag adapter? Or even better, are you designing a mag adapter that fits perf with this config?

2

u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS Neumann Metalworks 22d ago

Should be fine, the magwell is wider than the wood stock. But if you had to remove material its easy. Its just sheet steel
