HI!... Thanks for the pics. Anyone actually have some of these that they can take good quality pics of and possibly some measurements? I can easily make these at work on the lathe. I figure there made out of aluminum, correct? Looks like pinion size grub screws also?

I need these to start a unusual project. They will work in conjunction with these..... :mrgreen:

The threads are metric (not 4-40), the one that's all over the Tamiya srb's - I'm not positive which M right now. The finer thread is better for a set screw.

They are made of sterling silver. :wink:

Edit, yeah the set screws are going to be a 2.5mm hole and an M3 tap. Good to go!

HI!... Can anyone give me precise measurements on the gold shock collar in the pic below? I'm ready to machine a set but need to know the outside diameter and the thickness.

Thanks.

H.P. Just PM the guy who posted that photo. He can probably help you but needs a reminder next time he's in the hobby room.

Mounted mostly vintage and only a few re-re parts, and I just realized that I forgot to order the front nose tubes :roll:
