Micah and I have spoken about this, as far as I can tell the Gecko's don't use neck plates. But if I had a full size tracing of the back of the neck plate area I could most likley make one..jimh said:Surely our very own Dangerous Doug is the man to ask.....
How 'bout it Dangerous?
Given that Warmoth doesn't sell special-length neck screws for the Gecko, if you have a custom plate fabricated at a metal shop, you'll need to calculate on longer screws too. Neck plates are cut out of sheet steel, then plated, so you have to find somebody who can do that kind of work.The neck bolts are laid out in an asymmetrical pattern for maximum stability and sustain, they are secured in the body with custom recessed steel washers.

That's what I do... :icon_biggrin:"so you have to find somebody who can do that kind of work."
That's what I meant... :laughing7:Ohhhhh you could make one? I didn't know that!
I'm not sure Iike where this is heading....I will do it, and I will love you even more then I already do.

Yes Micah I could make a plate to fit it. I would need an actual pattern to work from. Mostly bolt hole dimensions and such..Micahbell said:Ohhhhh you could make one? I didn't know that!
Damn. What do you mean by tracing?
Just tell me what to do, and as soon as I get all my stuff (in a while) I will do it, and I will love you even more then I already do.
