...I got the Sturm barrel liner today
The Sturm build is at a crawl now due to having to drill out the track guide centers, 100 links per side, thats :hmmm four hundred holes! :duh

If that wasn't punishment enough I'm also working on a really old Panther A at the same time. :gogo

Glad it arrived. Hopefully the post office didn't bend it. As for drills, that's a touchy subject at this moment in time.

Things go faster if you don't stop to count the holes. :laugh: :laugh:

Yeah, I like the Dremal cordless, the torque is so low you can stop it with a thumb...sorry James.

What a JAB Moonpuppy :pp

I had an old Foredom Flexshaft with the foot pedal speed control. Like your cordless the low end was nice. Gosh I miss it...RIP

I've been smoking over getting that thing. Going to Greenville tomorrow, woodcraft store there. Making no promises.

I had mine back in the '80's and it was a hand me down then, I don't know how old it was but if they are still making them with the same quality you'll love it. They are a whole different feel.

Think of it as an investment. The foot pedal control is worth the price of a regular Dremel B)

James, I got the liner installed today and it looks great! Would post a pic but no time, Patton 360 is about to come on the History channel.

Question, besides the tools and liner there is a longer piece on the sheet you sent. After studying it for a bit it looks like it could be the sling for lifting the mortor rounds?

SM3 is the band to go around the round when being hoisted and sm2 looks to be a sight.
