I reduced and integrated a triple torch I just used hot glue to attach it because I want to be able to take it off. It makes for a nice little backup shot.
PVC bolt action I made. It has broken off twice, but this one is alot better than previous versions.

Primed with old plunger tube.
Scale
internals
It is a Defender T3 with a Lightnin' Blitz epoxied on it. I would have done the whole integration, but I couldn't figure out a trigger since the valve needs to be pushed. The T3 had a tiny plunger tube, much shorter than the plunger could handle, so I made a new plunger tube out of 7/8" pvc pipe. The new plunger tube is 6 1/2" long, giving the gun tremendous power even with the fairly weak springs on it. On the ond of the plunger tube, I have a coupler, so ROF is very good.
The ranges for the T3 average 119' banded and 97' not banded.
On the lighnin' blitz, I put on petg barrels, as you can see and plugged the pump.
At 20 pumps, here are the ranges.
35' 53' 54' 64' 65'
I didn't think I would finish this today, but here it is.
speedloader splitfire
I've never seen this done before. I don't know why.
The actual speedloader is pieces of pvc epoxied to a piece of choroplast.

I used a technique I saw on the show "how it's made" to make the droplets. You basicly paint the base layers, then spray on some water from a spray bottle. After that, lightly mist the piece with white. The paint will be collected in the droplets and flow to the bottom of each drop, because paint is heavier than water. After that, put the piece near a heat source and wait for the water to dry.
Voila! water droplets.

The turret is hexagonal, opposed to the previous ones which were round.

The worse side
front
It is supposed to look like there are water droplets on it.
The mod. The only thing I did differently was to use a piece of sintra plastic to cover up the hole in the front instead of hot glue.

Now just to get one major thing out of the way. The breech system and plunger assembly are all the same as my original Longshot modification.
Also, read this. You might last longer here.
If you want to see his face, go to a war with him. It's that simple.

#179250 +bow: Diy Thread
Posted by bobafan on 24 September 2008 - 12:25 AM in Homemades
So with the new parts list, does 75 only buy you enough to make one, or will there be surplus parts to make another?
I added up the cost of materiel for 3 and got around $120 plus shipping. Cost of the materials for one was quoted at around $90 plus shipping. (that might be from rev 1)

I have two questions.
1. I was wondering a bit about the handle. If I'm looking at this right, the two 1/4" pieces are about 1/4" apart. How does the gap feel comfort-wise?
2. This is for anyone with a +bow. How does the front grip feel? It seems like the edges of the grip assimbly would be a bit uncomfortable.
Thanks

Ok, I was thinking like this:An ice pick or dental pick is what I used to poke through the electrical tape. You could probably drill through it with a really small bit instead.Is the use of an ice pick a serious suggestion?
that makes more sense.

Did you replace the catch spring? It should be about an inch long and like 1/6" diameter.

Planning to throw that longshot scope on it? I think a red dot scope would function better though, but seeing a ls scope on that would be hilarious...
I think the LS scope looks like crap. It makes it harder to aim than without.
Also, He already has a set of wonderful iron sights. Lasers can be difficult to see during the day.
This thing looks awesome.
I like the lock for the folding stock. Is it spring-loaded or does it snap into place somehow?

When do you expect it to be assimbled and in working order?
I have a fairly technical mind, but there is no way I could figure any of your great projects out by myself.
I just hope I will be able to see them in person at some war.
#212972 New Raider CS-35 Speculation Thread

I guess nobody else read the whole article as it was posted in the nerf championship thread.
2 new blasters are described. The furyfire, which we have pictures of, and the stormfire blasters, which are not well described. The article also confirms some things about the raider.

Those pictures are without a barrel, right?
I don't see any sights. Are they hidden or are there not any in the CAD?
What is the function of the U-shaped piece with a hole in it at the muzzle?
The foam handle is a nice idea. It sounds comfortable.
What is the diameter of the plunger tube?
Even at $90, it is cheaper than a x-bow and I would be willing to pay it.
Nice job.
