i wanted to make a drop foward and/or a stock for my gun, i know about how but what do u use to bend the metal and keep it straight?

**ElementPB126** · July 27th, 02:57 PM

bend metal and keep it straight? hmm...

**Ryan_Page** · July 27th, 03:02 PM

there was no need for tat post element, to bend it, put it in a vice and bend it. or carve a badass stock out of wood, for a drop, cut a chunk of aluminum to the shape you want and drill holes for where the asa was, and where it will be, and sand like a b1tch.

I just didn't know what he ment, my bad.

**shorty7874** · July 27th, 11:19 PM

i meant take a straight peice or aluminum and bend it like a Z but keeping the lines straight

when me and my bros made it (with help from our dad) we took a saw and cut the metal, and then bent it where we cut it

bend it in a vice, it works good, and if you dont have a vice, clamp it to a workbench, that works too.

i think having a swirled drop would be cool. specially if it was matte black. itd be all "Old English Gate Drop" that would be tight.

**Ryan_Page** · July 28th, 11:07 AM

**Stopie** · July 28th, 11:28 AM

lol, mine worked ok...heres what i did:

-Get like a 4ft thing a steel from menards for liek $2
-Measure how long u want it...with an estimate of the loss of length due to bending
-Cut with hand say
-roto-zip eges so they arent SHARP
-Bed in vice w/ towels around it so u dont impale urself if u slip.
-Prime w/ model paint
-Paint with model paint

And it looked ghetto but cool..and costeed liek $5 total, for steel and roto-zip bit. Then i was a cheap ass and got my friend to give me his CP Flame cause hes so nice.
