I just finished putting together a Frankenstein Ruger 10/22 with a heavy Ruger 20″ target barrel. I’m going to put on some iron sites. The Williams FP AG site with the target knobs is what I’m going to try and a Lyman Globe front site. Your article was very informative except some of the pix were blanked out by PhotoBucket. I don’t use them any more.

I didn’ t think anyone still viewed this site… Anyway, I drilled them myself with the bits note in the article.

This is neat! I have mine on a thick piece of plywood, and just lean it up out of the way when not in use.

What I had to do for really thin stock areas, such as the fore-end, is go ahead and cut the bottom and sides, then just the top flat of the stock, and take a LITTLE out of the channels with the machine…. then use a dowel wrapped in sandpaper to finish out the channel by hand.

This guide is very handy, certainly will be upgrading my machine. Issue I have is the stock I am attempting to duplicate is quite easily bent, there does not appear to be any way of duplicating it accurately, the best I’ll be able to do is attempt to work four sides of the stock making supports to stop the original bending as I go, between Centers of the machine the stock will easily bend 1/4 inch which cases issue as you can imagine

What company drilled the holes for you. I went to the woodcopier.com stir but the only one that seemed to carry any wood was woodworkersupply.com.

Also I would like to make my grips thinner than standard. So I need different screws?

Comment on Toyota Avalon and Camry 1MZ plug and valve cover job by LJS

Kudos for this video. There are a few other u-tube videos on this topic, so there are a heck of a lot of Toyota’s out there now that are having this problem, but this video doing the step-by-step process is spot on! And I do have the Haynes manual for all my cars, they are well worth the small price, it will payback several times over.
I had an 1999 Avalon and had the leaking and burning oil from the back valve cover and paid to get it fixed.
Now my 2001 Sienna Van with 264,565 miles (and going strong I might add) is having the same problem. I was leary to try to do this repair, but I will do a three for one fix; the valve cover gaskets, the plugs, and replace two of the coil-on-plugs as the eventually go, so I will do this once and be done.
Thanks again for the video lesson.

Comment on Ruger 10/22 Peep Sight Roundup by Gilbert M. Ruiz

Just discovered your site. I love target shooting with peep sights.
My question is how would your set up work for an Appleseed shoot vs Tech-sights as the
project Appleseed recommends?

Mine came with the whole gearbox at the bottom, I assume it’s a worm drive.

I forget the name of a place, but any machine tool supplier should be able to provide them.
