Pneumatics for my axe

Hmmm...not cheap.Can you recommend any particular ram off that site please?And is there any performance difference between 2 and 2.5?

Nope, because I dont know what you wish to accomplish. Do you want THz in feather size?

And, I wont buy a LP ram, no need to.So I dont spend much time contemplating it.

But if really really asked nicely, I would say, a 63mm bore, 150mm stroke ram, with about all parts customized to accept better flow from the large valves, the round rack-rod and reinforced endcaps to accept the humongous forces.

Well,yeah THz in feather terms is what i have always wanted but....its going to be expensive.

Thanks for the help Mario.

Any ideas on how much a 63mm bore ram would weigh?

Roughly, 1.5kg, after all the modifications needed to make it a THz style ram/pivot.

Can anyone suggest a good metal for the arm of my axe?

A good quality aluminium or titanium are good suggestions. Also I recon on having spent about a grand on my feather axe when Ive finished.

A grand?!

Any pics?

Thanks for the help,what did you use for the arm?

mark- thzs rack is a HPC custom job... he sent me the technical drawing he sent to hpc :P

A very good grade of tool plate ali, not made it yet, infact not even got the material yet.
