does anyone here 3d print 13ci bottle butt stocks/plates?

[starlingassn]

finally picked up a 13ci reg'd hpa tank for my sig mpx.

but hate the slip over butt pad pyramyd was offering with the tank.

does/can anyone here make butt plates for the 13ci bottles?

 

[starlingassn]

should be simple,

i just need it to be able to slide onto somewhere near the middle of the bottle,
as it feels more comfortable with the bottle sitting slightly up on top of my shoulder.

heres my crude photoshop of basically what im looking for.

Give me a very accurate measurement of the diameter of the bottle. And an over all height of the shoulder piece. A very simple napkin sketch would do. I'll scribble something up on the CAD and show it to you.

I have the MCX with the HPA tank. I'll keep an eye on this thread.
And I am working on a new magazine for my MCX. I have 4 belts all connected so need a drum/box style magazine.

I'll throw it on the printer and see how it comes out. Gonna use Carbon filled PETG, 30% infill with Gyroid pattern. With the gyroid pattern if you need more strength you can drill a small hole in the top and bottom of the part and pump epoxy resin in from the bottom and essentially make it a solid part. Much stronger than a solid print. Should take about 4-1/2 hours to print.

 

[starlingassn]

that is just too cool!

i can imagine epoxy would strengthen it considerably if needed.

thank you so much for your time and effort sir

i sent you a pm last night with my shipping addy

pretty certain its going to work,

since the bolt will allow for some adjustment.
