dwendt1978 Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Can anyone tell me the best way to make the concave mouth on these pop r's? I can turn them on a lathe easy enough but that's giving me problems. I figured there has got to be one of you out there that has figured this out. Thanks guys!

dwendt1978 Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah I think like those. lol. My pc is a pos so it's a little hard to tell but if it's anything like the rebel pop r, yeah. There is a tutorial on here about that but I'm actually missing a quality drill press so I'm wondering if there is another way.

cheesehead Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Get an attachment for your hand drill to make it work like a drill press they run about $20 they work but not as good as a real press. pluss your limited as to how big a hole you can drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwendt1978 Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Thanks. Also do you know if on these flat-sided cranks like Coley is making on the tutorials, do you sand (round off) the edges on those also so they look like a rapala? I think you make similar cranks also. I'm venturing into something new so I'm a little green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
