Kral puncher custom diy Hamster done

[paulsteve]

Think its done. So after the first effort i tried to use aluminium for the series of interlocking plates instead of the steel, the upshot is the aluminium binds too much when the pressure is of the joints. So stuck with the steel and a weight of 505 Grams bit of a let down. However i managed to get the palm shelf to fold level with the mount so the whole thing folds nearly flat, when fully closed it has a depth of 24mm. The other addition is the palm shelf itself which is finished with 2mm plate carbon fibre. All in all works well, the carbon palm shelf is 50 x 150mm now the gun shoulders with a very upright position as i wanted. Next i am planning to add an electronic assisted trigger, ive seen some examples on u tube. Have ordered a few solenoids from amazon, plan to have the extension rod that feeds from the trigger blade to the rear of the gun removed and replaced with a solenoid action. If anyone can offer any advice with this, save me some time with rial and error i would be grateful. Also i have shown a photo of the hamster attached to the Rotex RM8.

 Thank for watching.

 That is awesome looking!!! Great job,looks like great craftsmanship . Until your posts I’ve never heard or gazed upon a “hamster” of this sort. I can gather that it’s an aid in shouldering but does it also adjust forwards? So that it could be used like a Mono pod or bipod? Again that’s really slick looking thanks for sharing it !

Looks like it would be a great rest out of my truck window! With a rubber pad and what looks like a lightnin quick release for adjustment!!!

That's really awesome! It's pretty cool that you needed a piece of gear, set out to make it, designed a prototype and then kept improving it until you were done. I think it looks really great and looks like it will work well too. Great job man!

 pics showing Hamster extended. I would not normally use it extended that much but i suppose it could be used as a rest.
