You went for the same neck and head layout as me. Its the only way of doing it without lots of rods sticking out of the fingerboard I can think of.

Jun 17, 2009. 9:37 AMknexguy says:
YAY! Don't worry about credit, the designs are sufficiently different (my neck was 7 layers thick!)

Jun 18, 2009. 8:19 AMdoom980 (author) says:
heavy!!! :P

Jun 18, 2009. 8:55 AMknexguy says:
*Nods* T'was designed to take real bass strings though. Turns out not even 7 layers was enough to eliminate all bowing.

Jun 21, 2009. 3:18 AMknexguy says:
Good design, looks like it would work well. I have an idea for the stock which would make the gun easier to cock. Looks a lot like a SCAR!

erm should i make a shotgun will you help with mech ???
13
Jun 23, 2009. 11:52 AMknexguy says:
Don't really like shotgun mechs, they need to be complex (unless it's a break action) and powerful at the same time.
2
Jun 23, 2009. 12:12 PMdoom980 (author) says:
thinking of a break action
2
Jun 23, 2009. 8:35 AMdoom980 (author) says:
pretty powerful lol justs needs a curved mag

Jun 23, 2009. 11:53 AMknexguy says:
If you can get it to work, do, but if it damages the power leave it I'd say.

You could make a simple gear-ratio tuning mechanism. I'll try that.
