I hope so too!
Managed to fix the Air leakage on the nozzle. I had to get a carpenters square and line that up to the front of the tappet plate then gradually very lightly file a small portion (luckily not too much).
I'm not entirly sure how to do the shell yet and build up around the internals. There are going to be a lot of electronics also so i'm looking in to custom making pcb's or using donated circuits however these will probably be dipped in to resin/varnish several times to water proof the componants and help protect them.
I'm looking for suggestios still for the stock (Thinking of fitting an M4 stock and canibolising one), the top front rail ( The G36 style is spot on but i need full metal i think however it looks like its a split upper rail so im wondering of maybing doing a semi futuristic style twin top split design like a V shape.
It wouldnt exactly be like this below but you can get the idea. I showed the low profile rail red dot in an earlier post so that needs line of sight down the top so i thoguht maybe a twin Ris mount (See pic 1) possibly two- tier (using the top of the red dot. Then use two long rails between these two base points. Either bending if they could be or modifying in a way, unsure yet.
The prowin i managed to get inside the gun last night (I have a ton of photos of progress bits so far but i thinki need a blog space lol)

I produce 2D, 3D graphics and animation for my work soi hope to have a fully produced 3D representation of this, also splitting apart to show wiring diagrams and internal componant layouts.
I think i'm going to require some cheap seccond hand parts to modify such as stocks, rails, and such (live in uk) however if anyone knows how to get hold of some bits let me know. I dont really want to pay the full 50$ for an M4 stock here as i plan on cutting it up completly lol. So suggestions on getting used parts and spares would be welcome.
I'll try get the rought wiring diagram up soon.
