Colt1991A1 airsoft replica - Slide assembly

grabcad

It's a school project I'm working on, a 3D reproduction of an airsoft gun. And this is the first part of it, the whole slide assembly. I'm still having some issues, for example i wasn't able to make proper inner threads for the screws (and the screws themselves are not really good). At the end, I have to create a video explaining how the assembly works. I made some renderings, a few pictures and a first clean animation, and I have a second motion study waiting to be rendered. (It's in the assembly file) It took me about 2 hours for the first one to render. By the way, if you have any advice, or maybe better solutions than Solidworks Motion + PV360 for creating and rendering animations, I'd be more than glad to learn! P.S. : I'd like to thank Taras S for his work on the Colt 1911-A1 Model Goverment Pistol, which's gonna help me a lot for the aesthetic part of the receiver.
