Good grief! I just posted the drawing!

[Nuke Power]

Yes but I want you to make a drawing showing excatly what dimenssions you want it to be that way there is no argument in the interetaion! Geez. If you want the darn gun youll do it cause I will turn it as soon as I get it!

I will wing it if you like

The drawing posted has the dimension of the real thing on it, some 450" ?

Depending on the size you print the drawing off, you can easily scale the dimension @ 1:72

ughhh the part of the job I am trying to avoid!

[Nuke Power]

i guess ill just have to do everything

Huh! Some machinist you are! Can't even extract a dimension from a set of drawings? Huh!

(Methinks we may get a gun to fit on our 1:230 Skipjack!)

I guess I'd better do it for the poor boy!

When you print out this drawing, the gun should measure 6.3" long (Scaled in Graphic Converter - a Mac program)

Easy there, Mike. Remember: you're dealing with a nuclear trained grease-monkey. One false move around him and he'll tear your face off.

(The only reason the navy keeps those guys around is that they make fine neutron moderators -- without them, the kettle looses steam, and we forward guys have to get out and push).

David,

David is right and wrong.
I will rip your face off but we don't moderate neutrons. We actually found out the reactor is powered by souls. We are pretty sure it is what finally killed rickover since nothing else seemed to.
I will try to start the gun for the skipjack today. Need to check my stock.

[Tachikaze]

Excellent, thanks.
Will try to turn one this weekend.

[Nuke Power]

Made it out of brass. You want the details put in it or do you want to add them yourself you filthy brit

[Nuke Power]

Oh here it is. I left part of the stock on because I didnt know if you wanted the breach made or if you wanted me to do a partial bore on the gun. I also did not add the raised lines where the gun was assembled because I wanted more info on them because it does not appear they are a consistent thickness all the way around. Let me know. You know where you can send the APC :)
Anything else need commissioning?

[Nuke Power]

Couldnt resist and bored out the gun. Just happened to have some pellets and dart lying about so I hooked it up to my compressor. This thing is going to be a good time.

[Tachikaze]

6.3" seems really long !

[Kazzer]

A couple of inches of that sits inside the cowling.
