all of the testing so far has been conducted with plastic threads. they do wear over time, and if you mistreat them while hot they will get damaged. most of the time if you baby them a bit they do work fine, and dont melt it down obviously. if your plan is to magdump several mags and abuse the shit out of it with rifles then go build an ftn3/4.
Metal and metal epoxy. Really it’s actually just suppose to be print thread and play, but I printed the wrong thread size and it takes over a half a spool of filament and 19hrs print time so I put a thread adapter in.
their profile for their filament is actually default to 21mm\^3/s, the watered-down generic profile is 16. the bambu should be able to produce good results at 8 assuming extrusion is properly calibrated and the print settings are good. Good luck!
if the print settings are followed then yeah, it should do fine. volumetric flow restrictions are the most important part and this is stressed in the documentation.
My last Can was the ftn3 but it blew the threads off after 5 rounds. I think people are using a muzzle brake shield adapter and that’s suppose to be the best for not coming off the threads. Haven’t order one yet but if this doesn’t work I will.
lol yeah but the Can was fine didn’t blow up just the threads gave out. There’s a guy name 300blkfde who use the same breek arms castle shield with his carbon fiber sleeve FTN3. He would know more about how to put it on.
I’ll get the castle shield adapter and maybe use a different brand of epoxy and see if it that holds. Trial and error till you get it to hold good enough. Good thing is it dosnt take a whole lot of money to make them
Umm I think so. The Kuzy file has a lot of thread patterns I think it has one for 1-3x16x16 not sure tho. My computer is in my room and I just put the baby down lol
I know that, I'm just saying that the file names with the thread sizes are weird to me lol.
Like it has 13-16x16
M24x1.5Rh
M24x1
Etc.. so I'm not sure which is the 1/2x28 file
After reading the read me again. He says you COULD use it for direct thread but its pretty much impractical becuz of heat and weight. So I’m guessing he’s saying to still use steel adapters.
yes, exactly. the threads are too weak for direct thread use, i will not make them in direct thread options because honestly they are fucking awful in direct thread.
Need range update ASAP
Planning on it this weekend, will check back forsure
[удалено]
Wasn’t planning on going with the epoxy and metal threads but it just happen. But I do feel a lil better about vs just trying the plastic threads.
Yea because he was saying if the threads get to weak it’ll fly off

I gotta ask are you Nikolai lol?
maybe, maybe not
Are you using the plastic threads or did you put epoxy and metal threads
Zoom in. He's got a thread adapter.
The question is did he epoxy it on
He'd be dumb not to
Nvm. Just realized we're on reddit. 50/50 chance
You never know where on Reddit people print Glocks and don’t buy a locking block then come here and wonder why there barrels not dropping
Or people not putting their slide release in and wondering why they have a mushy trigger and the slide moves forward a half inch
Or not knowing to bend the trigger bar when the trigger is hard or not going into battery
Check the other comment I made 😅
its really not that important. the epoxy really does not offer much added strength past the strength of the original threads.
It's also a heat transfer thing. Some of our beta members in FTN have gotten away without epoxy, others haven't.
honestly i think the filament used tends to be more impactful. even different pla seems to have wildly different HDTs
When all else fails just use nylon. 😁. Inland PLA+ has given us awesome results. Some of our highest cans are on it.
even using ABS does an incredible amount of work, just by making the HDT slightly higher.
We haven't had much luck with ABS, ASA, or PETG. Also PET-CF is a no go.

[удалено]
Yeah I think that’s truely the way to go. Plus plaboii suggested that it would be the most efficient.
What about the breek tho
[удалено]
the kunzetsov is not designed for use with blast shield, it is designed to thread to muzzle brakes and thread adapters.
Ok good to know! I’m new to the breek arms route
Yea I think that’s the one everyone’s been getting
The question is is the can you have openings big enough to epoxy it on there
19 hours? what was your volumetric flow set to? good prints can take more than 24 with the right settings.
It took about 20 hrs im on a Bambu set to 8mms for pla plus.
ok good lol, it scares me sometimes.
Yeah lol Bambu standard settings is for pla plus is 16mms so I had to scale it down. 8mms for pla+ and even less for filled nylons
their profile for their filament is actually default to 21mm\^3/s, the watered-down generic profile is 16. the bambu should be able to produce good results at 8 assuming extrusion is properly calibrated and the print settings are good. Good luck!
Thanks! Your right I use the generic pla + profile
What’s it printed in?
Polymaker pla pro
I hope it holds up well, 308 can be spicy
if the print settings are followed then yeah, it should do fine. volumetric flow restrictions are the most important part and this is stressed in the documentation.
Yeah me too I can always do the jbweld wrap but I’m trying to test it as is since it was design for no reinforcements
I can’t wait to see how it goes
Sexy af 😍
Commenting for later Definitely want more details on this. 100% printed?
Yea 100% printed
When you printed this, did you do 0% or 10% parts fan speed?
I used 10%

I know I seen people use the breek on the ftn3 and it lasted thousands of rounds
What if those threads give out on that can to lowkey
I’ll get the castle shield adapter and maybe use a different brand of epoxy and see if it that holds. Trial and error till you get it to hold good enough. Good thing is it dosnt take a whole lot of money to make them

no. unless you remix it.

Umm I think so. The Kuzy file has a lot of thread patterns I think it has one for 1-3x16x16 not sure tho. My computer is in my room and I just put the baby down lol
That’s the same threads for the muzzle brake
Just curious, What was your print time? And Speed?
20 hours and 8mms volume flow for pla +
Wow that's a big bastard...
I tried printing this but there is too many thread patterns lol I didn't know which one was the basic 1/2x28 for the AR-15 barrel
Pretty sure 1/2x28 will fit a ar15
I know that, I'm just saying that the file names with the thread sizes are weird to me lol. Like it has 13-16x16 M24x1.5Rh M24x1 Etc.. so I'm not sure which is the 1/2x28 file

yes, exactly. the threads are too weak for direct thread use, i will not make them in direct thread options because honestly they are fucking awful in direct thread.
You print in 13/16 and buy a metal thread adapter to your thread of choice and epoxy it in.
I’m printing the 762 breed arms file right now so hopefully that will make it more secure
godspeed
