Quick Armorer Blocks

Bill of Materials
Description
Make quick armorer blocks with these and a 2x4 or 2x3 piece of wood. They are 5.12 in (130mm) long and 1.24in (31.5mm) wide each. I have used these for armory work for years without them deforming. I have clamped them in vises and used them in arbor and hydralic presses . The latter is what ruined the surface of the green one. But it still works great.
Best when printed using ASA/ABS (green and glow in the dark), however, you can use PETG (also shown in red) . I really wouldn't suggest PLA I have seen those deteriorate quickly with the oils and solvents typically in use.
Benefits
- Use less plastic
- Customize for different use cases
- With center or multiple holes
- Reduce work
- Just cut a single piece of wood and screw it down
- Wood piece gives a heavy and wider surface area to reduce it “walking” around.

To assemble just :
- Cut a piece of wood 6in (152mm) or longer.
- (optional) Drill a 1-1.5 in (25-38mm) hole using a fostner, spade or hole saw bit.
- This allows you to knock out longer pins without losing them.

You can even sand and stain the wood piece to make it look a bit nicer.
