Heck id even buy a block of wood with the internals cut out of the block with installation instructions, conversion pieces and handwritten instructions.  I dont know if that saves you a considerable amount of time, or if you always shave the external first but it is just an idea since time seems to be your main concern (as well as money of course), really just holding back on anything a moderate woodsman can do on his own then of course charging more as the finish becomes more time consuming.  IF that was ever a possibility i would love a pm  :o

I'd be interested in finding out about that also. Or in buying a completely shaped kit off the duplicator that would require hand fitting and finishing. If you decide to go that way. That is a GREAT looking bullpup!!

Have there been any updates with this?  Wondering where things are at...  did you work anything out with Galahad?  Just curious!

D:

I haven't made much progress, other than finding a wood supplier, and looking into another couple of designs.

I also have come up with some improved manufacturing methods that I think will streamline the whole process, mainly through looking at the designs of others, and using more of the "K.I.S.S." method.

As far as speaking recently with Galahad, I have not done so.  He has a pretty definite time frame that he has announced, and I intend to give him all the time he needs to get established with his own stocks before I trouble him with my own, should we actually work something out to do so.  I also have some assets that I could liquidate for cash, and try to acquire my own duplicator.

I am working on an AUG version of bullpup at the moment, but as you might imagine, the holidays are my busiest time of year, family and church-wise, so I haven't gotten much actual construction done.  Still, my mind just loves to wrap itself around the whole design business, so I am very actively working out the details of my changes and new ideas.

Wish I had something more to share, but thats about it for now............... :reindeer:

By the way, Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

I am collecting the parts to build a copy carver.  I hope to have everything together by the summer.

If all goes according to plan, I should be making stocks shortly after that.

I am interested in both the aug version and the "tommy" version. I would really love to have the tommy style with the foregrip centered like the real thing and would love to see any pics of the styer aug version idea.

I would request a copy of the instructions that you gave out ready. this would give me a good starting place and since my woodworking is not half bad i might be able to adapt it to my personal style. Thanks and please do at least try to put a few of them out. i think it would be worth it. I would be willing to pay a reasonable fee $100-200$ for a finished one.

best of luck

Sungod:

Here is where you can find some pix of the internals of the Yugo bullpup.  The Norinco is built slightly different, but very similar in execution.  I would love to see someone else do a Thompson-style pup like mine, so have a go, and I hope it turns out well.

I will be happy to lend any support that I can to the cause.  *Pups Up!*    :lol: :lol:

Almost finished with the copy carver, and already have the next piece of wood to use, so yes, I will be doing some stocks pretty quickly, if it all works to the point of being able to sell them.  I don't want junk with my name on it.  Will keep everybody up to speed.
