    An idea struck me. What about making a "classic feed" for where the powertube attaches. The body uses as a dovetailed, removable powerfeed setup. If I can go with a classic feed, I can easily bolt on a very low profile stick feed. Biggest problem is that I'm drawing up a product with a market of one buyer (I think). Then again, I thought 3D printing was all about the capacity to do one offs and rapid prototypes?

    So I took to my free CAD software and came up with this. I'm pretty sure this is a printable part, no?

    I also made one with a fully revolved and extruded 12 round tube, but that might not be possible to print because of dimensions and geometry? See below.

    And one last crazy idea. Cram and jam, with an tapered cram receiver. It's cramming on a 10° angle up and out.

    Yeah its a good idea.
    I have the same idea already in my drawing file. Just waiting to get the shop back up to do some testing.

    Jeez, if you make this rail I may just have to pick up one of XMT's carbon bodies, a DW cf foregrip/barrel and an old CF frame.
