right i have put this here so all the guys that are looking to buy a new shock lower eyelet can see this
i have spoken to two machinists and one replied with this

I don't see any problems with that job but how fast are you wanting them bud??
> If your ok for a few weeks or probably a month I can fit them on and either do them in Ali or 303 stainless it's up to you but I will need both parts in your picture if possible to get every possible size and I would also need you to supply me with the bearing number so I can get the dimensions and also to get a price for you if you want me to supply that part as well?



so this guy can do them in either ali or 303 stainless . he may and i say may be able to get the ali ones anodized but i suspect it will be clear anodise or black . and if you want him to supply the bearing for the lower eyelet he may be able to do that also ,so then its a straight fit on once you get it then get it serviced
there is no price till i get the bits off whitebuck and send them to the guy so he can see what he is dealing with and what the price would be .

so its up to you guys now to decide on ali or steel and if ali what colour if he can get them coated .remember coloured ali only not the steel ones


and believe it or not the price i get given is the price you pay .im not out to make money off you guys (would be handy if i did but im not like that )

it will be the bearing that whitebuck was speaking of ,the better sealed one . not sure why the shock has heim bearings (ball type).maybe monty would know.

the guy will fit what ever you like as long as your paying for it lol

i would say ali as it will be cheaper as in wear and tear on his machines in my eyes , he makes custom parts for airguns and other parts for other things. its not just a guy with a lathe at home ,its a business so it will be top of the range machines . he is a great guy to deal with .

once i hear from whitebuck and jay (the machinist) gets the sample eyelet we can then get a price

jonny . jay said black annodising will be ok with him . i will say this though . i think black or left as is would be the only way ,he gets most of his stuff done black so that would be cheaper allround for you guys

i have also spoke to him regarding tail tidies. he can make them too if any one wants one . would just need a drawing. again ali or stainless steel will be the options . can be a bended design or welded design . price will depend on the design. the ccm ft35 tidy looked good and i know a man who has one

so will get a pic of it

its cool.jay the machinist will make anything you require as long as you are willing to wait and bulk items is better for less cost per item . it will be cnc'd i think so he will have the program stored if more are needed later

OK ... apologies to all .....I missed this yesterday but we're reading off the same sheet now

The rush has gone out of it for me, so I'm happy that we wait and see what happens

Personally I think we should go with stainless as it can be plated/painted and makes the eyelet as strong as a Russian Tank

Guys let me know in a PM subject 'Eyelet' and I'll collate it ...., .

Between my laptop crashing and lambing starting early, life has suddenly got complex ;)
