Finished Prototypes
I finished up the machining on Friday, then the impending thunderstorms passed through and I shut down.
The assembly went OK, but I need to mill the magnet holes a little larger so they are easier to press in.
These are small cleaning kits. They measure 2.6"long, are 1" wide and .625 (5/8") thick.
They contain a pull-cord style cleaning assembly that can attach to a standard brush - the block will hold a .45 cal brush.
There is a removable brass scraper and an ampule to hold a teeny bit of oil - enough for a light lube and wipedown. The threaded brush holder and the ampule are parts that are used in the Samson Field Survivor tool.
If you coil the wire carefully you can stuff a patch into the other half of the block.
I have used it and it works pretty well. Who knows if there is a market for it.
There are a few more changes I still want to make to this design.
