Piston face.

[paulmitchell1984]

Not much to report, young lad at work wanted me to make a skull type effort from one of our pistons..I'm not artsy fartsy with this kind of thing but gave it a shot.
Need to fix the shot gun shell other shell and mig wire in place but you get the idea.

Spaghetti western inspired?

 

[chunkolini]

what are the pistons out of?
Do you have any spares? or valves?

 

[paulmitchell1984]

Believe it's from one of the Cummins engines but I may be wrong I was given it to work on so I don't have any I'm afraid.

It will be removed when I come to fix it in? I'm not a pew pew jind of person, so assume you mean the inner plastic part!

Dave means the silver coloured bit in the centre of the shotgun cartridge, it’s unfired.

 

[paulmitchell1984]

Its Definitely been fired as it's from a used shell..but if it hasn't, whats the best way to remove it?

...few years ago in between waiting for parts for a blown up Yamaha V-twin I knocked this up. Was always a bit of a Starwars fan as a kid

if it had been fired, it would look like the brass case on the left with a dimple in the middle. That is still live !

Put the shotgun case in WD40 or similar for 24 hours, that should kill the primer. Then you can gently knock it out. Wear safety glasses and ear muffs just in case and keep at arm length from it whilst your doing the deprimming.

When you say knock it out I assume it would be from inside out if that makes sense like it does in my head, and not striking it as though to fire it.

Yes from the inside out

Well this is as far as I'm going with it, see if he approves or not on Thursday when he's back in.
