Thought I would give it a go on building a bigger hybrid than my previous, but going with the same type of design.
I have chosen to use components out of www.spearfishing.store as Dan got my mind turned towards his double muzzle.
I have ordered a double muzzle, a 120cm carbon barrel to go with the muzzle and the Meandros reverse mech. I guess it will turn out 140ish.
Got the components and I am drawing on the project right now - want to have it all planned before I cut.
I am stoked with the quality of the components - the carbon barrel is in a league of its own. I have a similar tube from BleuTec and its no match at all.
The Meandros mech has two ways of attaching - either with traditional pins through the mech or with screws from the top (like Abellan). I have not decided on that yet.
The body of this hybrid will be made of Sapelli and will be painted using the swirling technique of my previous hybrid. I am not settled on any particular color yet, have thought about red/purple/white - maybe I can have your input on this. My biggest hurdle must be letting the tube into the wood - I only have a 30mm ball bit for my router and the barrel is 28,4mm - so far the plan is to shim??? the barrel with narrow strips of wood glued on to the barrel.
I will post pics as I progress…
