Vee Twin Autococker

[Lt. head-shot]

Hey Doc, any updates? Its been a minute, figured I'd check in.

[DocsMachine]

Yup! I'm just about finished with Nuppy's kit, and hope to get that in the mail in the next day or two. Shortly thereafter, I should have 'Zillas milling done- the halfblock sled is a bit trickier than I'd anticipated- and once it's okayed, get it off to anno.

I apologize for the radio silence, but I've got like eight major projects on the table right now, and it's a bit of a juggle.

I'll have pics once Nup's is done.

Doc.

Update, Part 2: Continued apologies for the wait, ladies and gents. I've been slammed with... well, a little bit of everything. Local work (which is always "can I have that tomorrow?") the usual marker work (though I'm down to just... three, I think) I've got some shop-maintenance stuff I really have to do in the extremely brief window of our summer, I have a dozen batches of parts I've been working on (trying to get those shiny new CNCs to start paying their damn way ) a couple batches I have to get out for anno (they're already overdue) and just all the other little pleasantries that come with being that one man in the one-man band.

I promised Nuppy's gun nearly a month ago, and at this point, best I can say is I'm going to try very hard to get that out this week. (Pics, of course, when I do. )

'Zilla's I also need to get done so I can include it in one of those anno batches, and I'm gonna try hard to get that done this week, too.

Sorry gents, that's about the best I can do. I wanted these done and gone a couple months ago- to say nothing of the last YT video, which was going to be "next week"... back in, like, May.

Stand by. If my brain doesn't explode in the next couple of weeks, we'll get through this.

Doc.

[Nuppydog]

You rock Doc! Thanks for the update.

[DocsMachine]

I'm not actually dead! I just spent a little while dead for tax purposes.

Actually, it's been quite the madhouse here, for a number of reasons, but I haven't forgotten you gents! Despite saying I was "just about to" finish Nuppy's kit... almost two months ago, life, in it's infinite wisdom, always has other plans.

BUT... I've finally cleared away enough of the hordes at the gates that I was finally able to sit down and properly finish Nupp's kit this weekend. And here 'tis:





That beauty should be heading home momentarily, and I hope to finish up the last two this coming week.

Thanks for your patience!

Doc.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Wow! That’s cool!

[superman]

that came out awesome.

[Grendel]

I love the aesthetics of this one, nice clean lines without being all rounded. Great job Doc!

[maggot]

Whooooooooa, nice job on the request and the execution. That might be the best of the lot! Very cool.

[SETHZILLA!]

Fingers crossed mine has the same impact when it's done....

[DocsMachine]

Broke out the good camera, got some better pics:





Doc.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Looks like a double Kryptonite body ❤️ It!

[SETHZILLA!]

Getting closer to seeing mine here soon. Nuppy's looks killer Doc!!!!

[Casualwarrior]

Looks epic, Imagine this thing with an eblade, it would be insane!

[Nuppydog]

Doc knocked this one out of the park! I am beyond thrilled!

[Ecapnation]

For the love of God Greg.....no silly anno that thing needs some to show off the milling

[redsquirrel]

Just incredible. Can’t wait to see it anno’d as well.

[Nuppydog]

If anyone has ano ideas, please feel free to share. I have the anodizer picked out and booked, just struggling with the look. I hate bright colors and anything really busy. I want the angles of this to stand out.

[maggot]

"A black/copper ano where the sharp edges appear to be worn away revealing a bright copper beneath the black."

In other words, "Here's all my money and my child's trust fund"

[Ecapnation]

Classic black..... But have the angles edges annoed rusty looking.... I can grab a good example on my old Pontiac

[DocsMachine]

Okay, Nuppy's is wingin' it's way on home!

That leaves us with three, one of which, for I believe financial reasons, is getting put off 'til later this summer, which leaves us with the final two: Lt. Head-Shot's (I think- I don't have a screen name on the PayPal payment form, please correct me if I'm wrong) and Sethzilla's.

I have this week cleared, the drawbridge is up, and the sentry auto-turrets set on "extreme prejudice" so I can get those two done ASAFP. I sure didn't intend for this whole project to take this long, but such is the nature of this business. Thank you all, again, for your patience.

Doc.

[Lt. head-shot]

Sent you an email to clarify, that’s my bad. Let me know if the ICS and sight rail are possible and I’ll send payment asap!

[DocsMachine]

What address are you using? I don't see a reply.

Doc.

[DocsMachine]

Has anyone else emailed me and not gotten a reply? For some reason I'm still having issues with Headshot, here, and earlier there was some difficulty with Seth's. Is my server's antispam getting a little too aggressive, maybe?

Doc.

[Chuck E Ducky]

I had issues early on. That email is hit or miss. That’s why a lot of times I message you here.

[SETHZILLA!]

Still never got an official confirmation email from ya Doc.

[latches109]

I did not get a reply, but its not for a twin vee

[DocsMachine]

And Number Six is Done!



This one's heading out to Lt. Head-Shot in the morning, and I think he'll be quite happy with it.

[Edit: And I just realized this was an earlier pic from before I added the sight rail. Well, no worries Lieutenant, it's on there.)

You're up next Seth! I'll be dusting yours back off as soon as I get back from dropping Louie's in the mail!

Doc.
