Accessories fo a 9mm carbine

[cestout]

I was asked to make a grip and a butt plate for a 9mm Masterpiece Arms "mini" carbine. I developed it in pine and did the final in alder with cherry stain. I have a lip around the edged of the butt plate so it fits snugly over the metal. On the grip, I have stand-off buttons so only the 8 buttons are in contact with the metal. I sent pictures to Masterpiece Arms to see if they are interested.

Nice work amazing what can be done with the carvewright.

[Smoken D]

Nice! Try it in laminated dye woods. Appeals to that younger generation for those types of guns.

How did I do the grip? Well it so happens I am working on a cake/cupcake tree for my daughter and for the store. I came up with an amazingly simple way to make wooden tubes. I used that technique which will be revealed when I submit the project. You can download the instructions on a try basis and see. Additionally I drew an end view in designer - the barrel cover is a square overlaying a circle - to get exact dimensions. This had to be as precise as metal machining. Designing and test carves in pine took time, but now I can crank them out if needed. Assembly is a little tricky also - made up of 3 pieces.

Clint, truly amazing. Love the subject matter.

I was unfamiliar with Masterpiece arms so went to their website. I looked at their MPA30DMG model and thought how cool is that but I think I'll stick to traditional designs for now.

Good luck with them.

The term is "furniture"

thanks ...

[blhutchens]

thanks ...

I can find 3d files for the whole ar, just not the furniture alone.

Windham weaponry has a model with wooden furniture and it looks great.

[CNC Carver]

Very nice work! Looks great and sure it will make many happy if Masterpiece Arms works with you. Good luck!

i have files for the lower itself, but nothing for the furniture either, I could get my brother in law to come measure out the dimensions with his machine shop measuring devices but I have no idea how to put that into something to use with the cw

Are you saying the parts I made are called furniture? To do this you need Designer 3.1 and the 3D package. I would consider making a Tips and Tricks PDF on how to do something like this, but last time I tried CarveWright was not interested. As for measuting, I have digital calipers, but I just used the plastic ones from Harbor Freight.
