f class feet

[fpskills]

Anybody know Machinist Joe Cowan of Altoona, PA? There is a post on the daily bulletin about his stuff.
I tried the e mail that is listed but no luck with response.
I'm looking for some reasonable priced F-class feet... $50 to 60 bucks seems too much? Right?

thanks, Adam

I use his feet one my F-class front rest and they work great no sinking and enough weight allowing a very rapid return to zero by leaning into the rest given the weight. The return to zero is not as important for F-class but I have used it for tactical type stuff, where the second shot is important when the first is a miss. I did extend the screws on the base with threaded rod to handle very uneven terrain.

A couple of fender washers w/ ny-lock nuts on either sides works pretty well on the cheap...

Wade, I couldn't remember if that's the set you had or not. I found a set on here that look very promising and I might try em out. They are being sold by a friend of poster "falconpilot".

Thanks, Adam


p.s. 200,198,198..... I like the reamer!!!

Memilinuk, thanks the thought crossed my mind with the washers,but Ive got time to wait and do some more searching.

Being near the end of the school year this might be a tough time for Joe to get around to his email, but send it again if you can. I bought his rest and the feet and find him to be a great guy to deal with, nice products, he just gets a little busy.
