What? How does one, WHY does one want to modify a Natty??!

I now own a perfectly perfect Natty created by the Devils-Son-In-Law. Wrapped with flats it shot like it was made for me. However, I wanted a dedicated TubeShooter based on how this felt to Natural to shoot!!
So I adpated the Toddy Snare-Wrap to this fork. It came out just right of which I could not be more pleased!! I've included some photos of what I'm talking about! The first photo is the 'before' modification.
Thanks for looking! Mo

Snared WnT - nice.

Awesome!

 

[MOJAVE MO]

Awesome!

Fun right?! I know I have room for a looped set as well. I just need a longer wrap and not use the protector sleeve. I don't think I really need the sleeve on this set, it was just ready to go for this example.

Now I have to redo one of my cattys. Devil's tube mounting is amazing I like it.

Thanks IM! I think it is a sort of easy mod, but also easy to mess up trying to imagine straight lines on a crooked stick!

This is genius!

This is really a nod to the Old Miser R.I.P who explained this to me on his Mule by Toddy. I believe as MattW noted above it might be known as the Toddy Snare-Wrap and Tie. For the older digits those holes make a world of difference when adding both flats or tubes! When using flats you won't make a loop with the wrapping rubber. Just put one end through, the wrap each around the fork tip in an opposite direction and the tie it off!

beautiful work Mo. That's a really clean and attractive set up. I did have a question though...

I've seen other frames with a similar band set, where the tubes are covered in a 'sleeve' at the end where they are wrapped. What's the benefit of the sleeve? And do you use a slightly larger sized tube to create it? Regardless, it's a really nice mod and only enhances DSIL's excellent work.

Mikey. As I understand it the sleeve lessens the abuse of the bands that are inside the sleeve. It is a standard Mod of PFS shooters. And yes the sleeve is a little bigger. My feeling is that on a setup like this it isn't needed because of the smooth grooves.

Here's a link to Toddy's video...

 

[MOJAVE MO]

Bravo CPU!! Thanks for that. I am trying to be cool but I just scored an authentic Toddy Mule in a trade.
I need to watch the video again...did he ADD the Snare-Wrap and Tie holes as an afterthought on his own Mule?

I'm not sure; but, it seems so. Here's a full frontal pic.

Here's the older thread about this attachment method.

I only know these things, because I don't have a life and I spend countless hours reading through all the old posts on the forums...
