Well I have only waited a monthe to update this time. Well the Rogue cocker body came back yesterday. I won't even see it till August. I'm in California at the moment. All my projects are on hold for the time being. I will also be turning a System-X Xonic into a pump. So keep coming back and see what happens.

10 April 07

Well I'm getting better. On updates that is. Well if you have noticed a few projects are gone and a new one is up. The Rogue Cocker is coming along well. Had an issue with anodizing,so it had to go back and get the color in spec. I know who ever buys it will be very happy with it. It was just suppose to be a quick project and ended up being a full blown face lift. I thought the direct feed was a cool mod to add. Rainman229 did a great job on the milling.

17 Feb 07

Wow a yr and 1 day since last update. The site is still alive. I just don't update here often. A few projects have come and gone and new ones are starting and near completion. I still careless what's popular in paintball and I still build my own stuff. I have however gotten into milsim. No big project schedualed for it. I'm still hanging out on MCB and still try to pass along a little wisdom to beginner players. So follow the sniper project and let me know what you think.

16 Jan 06

Well a new yr is upon us. Iam now able to go mobile with a lap top. I also have two sites to maintain. I have started several projects. I am working on a semi PGP and a pump version Auto cocker. We'll call that the MUTT SNIPER 2. I'm not a big WGP fan so I'll call it my name version. I'm still awaiting my PGP body to come back from Punisher Customs. That should be arriving this week. I'm waiting on parts to come from Doc Nickels so I can complete the the Mutt Sniper 2. It will then go off to anodizing. I'm going to have some custom wood grip panels made for this project. A new rear ASA was made for the Auto Traccer project. I still have to complete threading and frame hole. The Phantom ASA was just causing to many sears to brake. Sterling is almost done. Waiting on parts from Mark Ambrose to arrive then it will be almost completed. Still have to do leak and shot test. As soon as it's in working order it will go up for sale. I guess saving markers is an addiction. Speaking of saving markers, I have a System X Cocker coming to me this week. Not sure what the condition is. I know it has a leak and doesn't shoot. Plan is to make this a pump and semi. It will go to sale when complete. So that's all for now.

28 Dec 05

Well it's been a few months. I've been away at work doing what I do best,fix stuff lol. Anyway a few things have happened. The sterling project is almost complete. It's just returned from Ano and will get put together soon.Hopefully this week. Mutt Sniper has been sold and I am working on another pump sniper. This will be 100% WGP free and new parts. I will be using an AIM body that I bought off Ebay. I am moving into the direction of a Semi PGP. I'm waiting for it to return from Punisher's Custom. I will be add an Angel feed to it that Rainman and I will be working on over the internet. I just sparked the idea,he's making it as usual lol. These projects are posted on my other site that I have. I'll post a link at a later date or move everything here. The Auto traccer is completed,just have to up load a few pics and it's done.

10 Oct 05

Well the Auto Traccer is moving along fine. I have added new pictures and did a "How To". It all pertains to modding the Auto Traccer. The Sterling is dead in the water awaiting anodizing. I guess I'll send it to Prodution Plating and let them do a solid color.

29 Sept 05

Well I have replaced the hammer in the Auto Traccer. I have a new Phantom ASA enroute. One thing about the Phantom ASA. Although it looks a little longer than a Traccer ASA,the frame screw hole puts it at the right leangth once attached to the frame. Meaning the mounting hole sits farther back than the Traccer ASA hole. It's a compensation thing lol. I'll try and find a Punisher bobbed ASA but doubt I'll find one cheap. I'll put up date pictuers on site real soon.

25 Sept 05

Well I realized after trying to bobb the Phantom ASA I need a steady rest. I ruined it beyond repair. So I have a new one on the way. Sterling should be leaving soon for anodizing. I'm going to sell it once it's completed. I need to buy a new lathe bed. I traded for some traccer hammers,so the Auto Traccer should be back on schedual real soon. Nothing like broken parts to put a project to a halt. Rainman will be making a bobbed ASA for the Auto Traccer. At the same time I will experiment with bobbing a stock asa. I should have just enough to make it work. Once it's done I'll post it.

21 Sept 05

I have added a phantom rear ASA. This is for the VSC phantom model.A little modding had to be done to the retaining nut. Had to enlarge the tube hole and turn down the inside sleeve. I'm going to face off the fron of the valve about 1/16 to bring it to exact traccer ASA leangth. The Sterling is back and ready for anodizing. I'm going to give it a dry fire run the send it out.

18 Sept 05

Barrels have been chopped,wood grips have been added,Sterling is on the way home. Projects are moving right along.

17 Sept 05

I added the chrome pneumatics today. The Auto traccer looks even better now. The new ASA is installed. All that is left is the side tapped rear ASA and Anodizing. This project moved right along with little problems. I still have to chop a barrel or two down,but that's a minor detail. Measurements are the key to this marker. I'm making my own personal manual for reference. When I finish it, I will pass it around to anyone that needs it. The Sterling is finish with milling. It should be back this week. So I'll post more pictures when it arrives. As for now there is one posted that rainman sent me.

16 Sept 05

I have added a few more pictures to the Auto-Traccer project. It is coming along very nicely. Haven't really ran into many problems. I'm still haveing trouble finding barrels.Guess I'll just have to cut down and re thread a few of my cocker barrels to fit. ION project is coming along very slow. I'm waiting for boards to come out before I commit to this fully. The Mutt Sniper has been sold,it went to a good owner that I know will take care of it. The Sterling is now heading to Rainman229 for machining. It will come back with a milled body,side tapped rear ASA, stirpped and polished. So it's just down to anodizing and the sale of it. I still have to buy a longer bed for my lathe so I can finish turning down the other Raptor barrel.

14 Sept 05

WOW I shot the Auto Traccer yesterday. It shot very nice. I didn't break a ball till I got down to about 100 psi. I had 500 psi when I started. I ran a little over a 100 rounds thru it. It had very good distance. Shot nice straight rapid stings. I am starting to take it a part now. I have already made an ASA for it out of a mag vert air adaptor. Already added the DF and will probably be adding the STO pneumatics today.

30 Aug 05

The ION project has been scrapped. I am going to restore a WGP Auto Traccer. I had one a while back but sold it. Now I have a complete working one. It wont come apart until I have made measurements and shot it for effect. As the project goes on I will update it on the page next to the picture. It may drag a while due to waiting for parts and my work schedual. This will be a project worth the wait.

24 Aug 05

"Project ION" is taking a different direction. I was going to scrap the project but new like has been given to it. Why buy one and upgrade. I'll just build one from scratch. There are plenty of new parts out there now to be able to go in this new direction. The"Sterling project" is just about complete. Work has delayed this alot. Now football season is upon us and that will delay alot of things that need to be done.

11 July 05

All "PROJECT ION" parts are being ordered. My two biggest delays will be the machinest and anodizer. The body will leave as soon as it gets here. The Marker will remain in tact for playing on the weekends. I'll just add as I go along and funding is available. This can take anywhere from 2 months to a yr. I still have to buy a lathe bed so thats a big issue for now.

10 July 05

Phantom project has been scrapped. I made room for the "Project ION". I bought this to see what this marker is all about. I'm going to test drive it while all the parts are coming in and and being milled. Once again I will be at the Mercy of an Air smith. The person I chose for this project usally has a fast turn around. So I think this project will be done faster than what I think.

3 July 05

I'm going to delay the Phantom project for a while. I just bought a new ION and I am going to buy a new longer bed for my Lathe. I need that more than another marker project. I would like to start this project somewhere around Sept or October when the weather gets colder. Will give me something to do. Who know by then it may change.

13 June 05

Looks like 13 is my lucky number lol. Well I spoke with the anodizer today. The Mutt Sniper is on it's way home tomorrow. I should have pictures up by the weekend if all went well. I'll see. I milled the pump on my Sterling and added the freak kit. I still have to turn the freak back down a little so it will fit properly and bottom out on the inside body breech.

7 June 05

Well the anodizer didn't call Moday, but he has till Friday. Maybe I'll just pick it up on Saturday. I need a Road trip anyway. I'll probably just call him Thursday and check out what's happening. They may have lost my phone number lol. Actually they are very creditable anodizer so I'm not really worried about it. Sterling project is moving right along. I changed the Drop Forward to a different kind. Gives me a "closer in" feel. I may not be adding the exact red dot site. Still might. Just have to find a dealer that will ship to a PO box.

04 June 05

New parts have been put in the sterling. I'll post pictures next time I take it apart. Seems they forgot to send me the springs. Mark Ambrose is sending those to me. I was in touch with the anodizer on Friday. Marker should be ready on Monday but he does have till end of week. DUMB ASS me was counting the weekends to. I called and did apologize for my IGNORANCE. Seems they are really excited about paintball market. I really hope this opens new doors for them. Still waiting on a response for the Acrylic Pump. I also posted new pictures in the "Sterling Restoration" project. More up to date pictures.

02 June 05

The Sterling has been rethreaded. I did this myself. Seems KP Customs and I had a miss communication LOL. He thought I wanted Sterling threads and he had tapped for Raptor threads like I wanted. So anyway he Has a body and I have one too that is tapped LOL. Keep checking my sites for updates. Going to put an acrylic pump on the Sterling. New parts for the Sterling arrived from the UK today and have been installed. The Mag frame works too.

31 May 05

I'm out of town working. But I did bring along a little project to work on. The Freak Back arrived Saturday. So I have that with me and the Sterling body. It's a one shot deal. If I screw up there is no repair except re glue the brass barrel back in. That would be a major bummer. The unibody phantom has been scraped and so has the "Spimmy" Really just useless projects.

27 May 05

Well good news today, found out the thread size for Raptor barrels(7/8-14). I'll tap my Sterling sometime next week and show the results. I get board when I have to wait on someone so I end up doing it myself. I want to get the Sterling to Anodizing and complete it before the Phantom Project starts. I want nothing to interfear with that project.

26 May 05

Nothing really new to report. The Mutt Sniper is about a week away from completion. I guess I'll just buy the tap for Sterling threads. I'll take a barrel and go measure the threads. If there's a thread size, there's a tap. Guess the Sterling project may take a little longer than expected. I'm still waiting on parts from the UK, It took a while last time I ordered them. I'm also restoring an old unibody Phantom. The feed neck fell off it. So I'm having it re-welded tomorrow. I'm also going to try my hand at making a T-stock. They dont seem very hard to make. Biggest problem is getting a welder.

22 May 05

The Mutt Sniper project is almost done. It has returned and is at the anodizer. I am using a local business. They seemed very eager to do the marker. It is their first. They were very concerned to make sure the tolerence were kept. They were also amazed at how many different designs that paintball had. They are an areospace anodizer so paintball markers are new to them. Hopefully they will continue to do them. Basically I'm their test bed. For now they are only doing a solid color. The splash, sponge and other designs are something they are very interested in doing. If so then Washington state will have a new person to go to. I have gotten in touch with a machinest about making a new style feed system for my Phantom. My plans are to make it a multi feed system. Meaning the I can have either Vert feed or left and right feed along with stock class. Just a removal of a few fastners and I can change sytems. Will save a few bucks in the long run on buying mulitiple bodies. The Sterling project is still awaiting parts. The UK shipping takes a while,so hopefully they will be here this week or next week. If all goes well I'll be using the same anodizer for this project.

15 May 05

Seems the Phantom Project and The Sterling Restoration might get a little bigger than I thought. I added a page to each. Just added a additional task to the Phantom Project. Hopefully the machinest I contacted can do it. After 5 yrs I have finally figured out how to install a counter on this site LOL. So now I'll really be able to track my site traffic.

14 may 05

The Timmy Jam pages have been deleted. It wasn't very exciting not being able to "HOTT RODD" the marker. I'll either use the pages to show how the Phantom under cocking mod is made or just use the pages to expand the "Mutt Sniper and Phantom project".

News and Project(s) Progression

14 May 05

Finally on the unluckiest of the yr. the "Mutt Sniper" is returning home. Actually got confirmation number and it's being tracked. If I time it right I might just make the anodizer. Hopefully it will be ready for California play. I started a "Spimmy" project,but I'm not going to post it yet. I don't have everything. This will take a while to complete. I'm going to depend on very cheap parts. So I'm going to hit the net and see what I can find. What's a spimmy? I case some don't know,it a cross between Spyder body and Intimidator parts. After all an Intimidator is just a Spyder hopped up on "Roids" lol.

11 May 05

The Sterling project is moving right along. I'm still waiting on repair parts from the UK. Hopefully they will arrive next week. Mark Ambrose is the State side parts pimp. He's really come thru for this restoration and other people who were in need of parts. I'm really excited how well this project is going. My biggest down time will come from KP Customs, Punisher customs and Rainman customs. One will do a rethread, the other will machine the barrel and Freak back for fit. Rainman has been picked for body machining. I wanted a bit of all three of these guys on the marker. Might as well use them all for their own personal touches. I plan to start the Phantom project around August 2, 2005. This one will turn out nice. I doubt I will do any machining on it. Good news I figured out how to add a sniper pump kit to the Phantom. Just came to me in a picture I saw on the net lol. Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words. I'll try and post a step by step on this mod.

7 May 05

I ran into bigger problems with the Mutt Sniper than I wanted to. The Anodizer time line is shot and it's been sitting at a shop for a few weeks. One thing I hate is being LIED to. Well no more big name guys for me. Punisher Customs will do my last mod,cause he's the only one I know that does it. After that it's just going to be local machinest. I just need to keep an EYE on my MONEY that I pay these folks. So knowing I can drive to see my stuff makes it all better. I have started two new projects. One is a Phantom. Actually no machining required. I'm waiting on a little cash to start that one. Need a few things that cost alot. I also started the Sterling Restoration project. Basically I'm just restoring an old Bronze Sterling rental. With a few perks. I might sell it once it's done. It won't be cheap.

13 April 05

Well the MUTT SNIPER is finally on the way back. Ran into a few problems but that's expected. I'm still on time line somewhat. The SC feed couldn't be made and I went with an Action Marker SC feed. Perfect addition, cause it has angel feed threads. I got it even cheaper cause I already had a feed tube that I won in an ebay auction. Now I have to find it. The Timmy Jam is working excellent.I have not had any trouble with it at all. No need to put money into upgrades. This marker shoots perfect out of the box. So the Timmy project is finished. I'm also starting a Phantom Project and maybe a Sterling pump marker project. That depends if Arrow send s me the parts I need. I also started up the AOG (AIM Owners Group). So I'm busy keeping that and this going along with my own life lol.

31 March 05

An Individual I know will soon be starting up an AIM Owners Group Forum. The purpose is to talk about all AIM products. Hopefully AIM will sponser the site. Not sure on all the details yet. The site has finally completed updating. Still waiting to show the projects complete. I'll try and write whats happening with projects more often. I have started 2 new projects and hopefully will have them complete by Christmas lol.

30 March 05

I have started a new project called "Project Phantom" The purpose is to just HOTT RODD this thing. I have always liked Phantoms and now I own one again. I really want to make this marker nice. I may never get my cash value out of it but who cares.

30 March 05

Well I'm gonna eat my words on the AIM Timmy Jam. I can't Improve it. Only way to do that is build one from scratch. To my specs that is. So cause of that I'm in dealing right now for a new body from AIM. I'm gonna add my own touch. Which means it will be built from scratch. I have most of the parts so I'm lucky in that dept. The MUTT SNIPER has come and gone back to Texas for a refit. Hopefully it will be here next week and I can finally post a rough draft. I'm trying to keep things updated so bare with me.

2 March 05

The AIM Timmy Jam arrived today ! All I can say is it's a fine piece of work. Very smooth lines and Perfect anodizing. I got my monies worth out of this marker. It's just stock,but I'll add a little to it as time goes on. Then again I might be so happy with it stock that I'll just leave it like that. The Mutt Sniper is on it's way home. Have a dead line to meet on this. It will go directly to the anodizer about a day or so after it gets back. I may actually play in my first scenario game ever. I used to be afraid of these, cause some people can't distiguish reallity from pretend. I'll see I'm not 100% certain yet.

27 Feb 05

The Aim Timmy Jam has been paid for. It should be here this week. I bought it from The Timmy Store. It will be dropped shipped from AIM. No sense in it going across the US than back to me. Still waiting on news from Paintball Maxx. Need to finish the Mutt Sniper.

21 Feb 05

I will be purchasing a new AIM Timmy Jam hopefully this week. Just waiting on a little cash to come in. I have started a page on it entitled "TIMMMMMY". I'm not building this thing, just going to improve it. I know this will be a fine marker. Just might need a little TLC. The problems with clones,is no one thinks they aren't any good cause they cost way less than the originol. I like to prove them wrong. Still awaiting for the MUTT SNIPER to get done. Hopefully this week. I'm really under a time line on this project. I'll still be revamping the site as time goes on. My busy season for work has kicked in. More to come, just didn't want to get behind on the updates.

7 Feb 05

Got good news today about body work. Spoke with Brad at Piantball Maxx. I should have some pictures posted sometime this week of the milling.

6Feb 05

Orderd some DYE clear sticky grips today. These are going on the slider frame. I'm still looking for an E-Blade frame for the Mutt Sniper. Even If the board is burt out it's no biggy to me. Who wants stock anyway. A real player knows how to fix and modify.

5 Feb 05

The slider frame for the Sniper project has arrived. This will be a great addition to the marker. It will be used for Pump mode only. I'm still debating on E- framing it. Unless I can get a real sweet deal, I can hang that option up. Thinking of starting a timmy project. I'm going with an AIM marker on this. It seems like a well construted marker that just isn't used by many. It's not a Bob Long brand,but who cares. I have a feeling it's a sleeper marker just lurking in the Shadows like a sniper.

2 Feb 05

Today is my 21st wedding anniversery. Can't believe a woman would ever stay with me that long. Usally they up and left with in a week. LOL.

1 Feb 05

Well today I officially found a bechmark slider frame.So it will be added to the Mutt sniper.

30 Jan 05

Revamping is going well. Today the angel project goes a way. It's turned into a waste of time. Ok I have changed the back ground once again. I was having trouble with double pictures showing up. That's been taken care of now. This format is like my old one minus the stars. Ok the "Mutt Sniper" project is as complete as it's going to get till it comes back from Texas. I started posting link. The "CPU Fan" Project is up and running as well. Starting a new project,we'll see how that progesses. The "Mini Cocker" project. This is going to get expensive. Might have a little milling done to it, but nothing extravagent like the Mutt Sniper. I've always wanted one,so I guess I'll build one. I'm in touch with DPM now about a body.

29 Jan 05

I began revamping the site,A few pictures are out of wack due to the new back ground. I'll fix those over the next few days. The Angel project will go away. I just need to save the pictures to mt hard drive. The Mutt Sniper project is up and running and I will up date that as time goes on.

28 Jan 05

Well today begins the first day of revamping the site.It's been up for quit a while.I'm giving it a new look in the back ground and getting rid of all upper case lettering. Good news is that the "Mutt Sniper" project is off to a great start. It's moving along faster than what I thought it would be. It's actually at milling stage and soon off to anodizing. The Angel project is dead,don't know when I'll get thru with it or if I ever will. Who knows. So enjoy the new site and please sign the guest book.
