Gatlingâ€™s Battery Gun and builders name and year , 2018 or 2019 or

Do you have a price in mind? I may be putting the cart before the horse but I would be interested as well

Guys, I see no reference to Cutter making them for sale. At least not by him.

Hereâ€™s where Iâ€™m at with the drawing.

Anyone have other ideas or suggestions ?

Cutter,

The 2 that are 3 inch diameter are 22 LR and the 4.4 diameter is 38-.357.

Just noted the year of construction! Thatâ€™s what Iâ€™m thinking!

Looking again, maybe slide the .38 and .357 in towards center a bit more. Need a spot for a couple screws to mount it (see pic of original)

Good observation Sparky

Are those crosshair lines on the gun image actually in the artwork or are they just layout lines in the cad? Seems like they don\'t belong.

The lines indicate a surface.

The gun/carriage is one item/surface.

All numbers and letters are separate also.

Makes it easier for me to edit the drawing, such as changing

names or dates.

Going to cut on your mill? Going to need a really tiny endmill for the detail and those are a real PITA without mega rpm\'s. I have been thinking of one of those china air cooled router spindles as a sub spindle for such things, 800 watt (about 1hp) with a vfd is under $200 these days, 24000 rpm max and a er collet, Pretty small too, about 2-1/2 x6-1/2 round. Maybe later this year.

Any reason you cant mill these flat and then bend them around the correct diameter pipe?
