I'm not a great fan of these kits but that is an impressive bit of turning, especially in acrylic which can be temperamental to shape! Great stuff Mark!

I am of the same opinion as Craig, on these kits Mark, but you have certainly set the bar with this for sure .. Very well turned indeed .. :thumbs:

Thanks so far guys....it wasn't a kit...i glued a 7mm transmition in the back of the cartridge and sized the front to take the nib...i know they can be a bit marmitey but the kids love em and i sell at school and to a millitaria store:bwink:
