A Gismo ??? If it has a flywheel or spins and is made with small parts. I'll take one! If it makes noise, moves, or requires frequent oiling and dusting it's a better deal yet. It's especially right if its shiny and bright; but if it's dirty and dull it wont mater at all...

Forgot about that... They are 26" long and have a 1.5" bore. Here is a picture of my drilling setup.

Got some more done on these :worthless:

Here is one of my barrels set up on the CNC mill I run at work.

I machined pockets into the sides for the trunnions to screw into.

Here is a finished pocket. It was milled on the CNC with a 1.5" endmill.

This old mill is kind of a "bull in a china store" when it comes to threading. Better do this buy hand;o)
