Here is a rendered image of version 2 of the Anticam



The parts were cut by Brenco in Vancouver with a laser cutter. Cost about $300 for enough parts to make three complete Anticams.

Then I bought 1 inch round stock aluminum for the 'barrels' that the bolt slides through. I drilled those using a drill press.

The unit does not need a trigger system since I installed springs that roll the lobes in reverse to a normal cam. This is great for one handed operation but unless the rock is even sided a lobe cam miss contact from time to time and compromise the strength.

Amazingly this seems to not be a huge problem since you can crank it tight and the device will flex enough to allow all cams to touch in most situations.
