Stock Spacers

#1 Post by phaedra1106 »

New T3 has a very short (13") LOP (it is for me as I'm over 6' 5")

I've put together 10mm plastic spacers which do the job but I'd like something a bit more solid until it goes into a new chassis sometime later this year/early next year.

Ideally I'm after something in black nylon/delrin etc, but could always paint them, 20mm diameter and 30mm long with a 5mm hole through it, something like this but with a smaller hole,

I'd need two of them, if anyone knows where I can find something similar that would be great :)

Would a 6mm hole suffice with 19,5mm diameter, if so I have some aluminium that would suffice and I can soon cut it to length.

I'll have a look in the "bin", might have some delrin from a used frame slider :-)

I'll have a look when I go into work tomorrow. Do you need two pieces 30mm long or is that the total overall lentgh.

Anything within a couple of mm will do for the diameter and hole sizes. Two spacers each 30mm long (upper and lower).

Thanks to everyone :)

I have got some black nylon round bar stock its 35mm OD. I can machine it to your requirements if you post the exact dimensions. I might need some advice on feeds and speeds from our more experienced machinists but I'm sure we can sort some thing out.

That would be great :)

Length = 30mm
O/D = 20mm
Hole Dia = 5mm

None of the above are critical in any way, +/- 2mm would be more than good enough :)
