#153535 Airtight Sealness...

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 27 April 2008 - 08:12 PM in Modifications

Forever is 24-48 hours for drying time. I've used gorrilla glue for combining things like guns, don't do it because as you know it expands thus making it look horrible. It wasn't rock solid, but it held. I don't know how it would work for sealing something airtight though. What exactly is this for?



#153538 Airtight Sealness...

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 27 April 2008 - 08:17 PM in Modifications

Do you have a leak or what?



#153542 Airtight Sealness...

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 27 April 2008 - 08:21 PM in Modifications

Epoxy or Plumbers Goop would be your best bet.



#153588 Odd Water Blaster...

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 27 April 2008 - 10:54 PM in Modifications

Good find, how much did it cost?



#153732 Dt3 Pistol Mod

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 28 April 2008 - 08:27 PM in Modifications

Nice mod, nice write up.



#153765 "alternate Fire Modes"

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 28 April 2008 - 11:31 PM in General Nerf

On-topic, I'm personally working on a 2k-LS integration that allows me to still use a pump-action foregrip; I remember the last DCNO there were many-a-time when I wished I had a quick second shot ready to hit the person after a dodge. Given, a pump-action LS is pretty quick, but I'm talking about on the magnitude of within a second. Also, a shot to cover me while I reload the clips seemed like a good idea. It doesn't quite classify as an alternate-fire per say, but it does fall under the realm of a gun that is fitting for a greater variety of situations/extending the usefulness of the gun. After all, 2 medium-long range shots are better than one, eh?

~ompa


I made a longshot 2k, it's in my signature. I made the pump so it's pump action. It was not the best looking but it got the job done, at a few of the wars I went to.

On topic though: I like Cmdramack's idea of integrating Big Salvo's on other guns. That along with imaseolman's idea with the SMDTG trigger. n fact, I'm working on something like that right now.



#153836 Retro Thing

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 29 April 2008 - 04:57 PM in Off Topic

It's like ye olden technology shoppe.


English please. Modern that is.



#153838 Barret .50 Cal Idea

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 29 April 2008 - 05:00 PM in Modifications

I think this could turn out good. Paint the gun also though.



#153845 R Thare Any Conyers, Ga Nerfers?!?!?!

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 29 April 2008 - 05:21 PM in Off Topic

Stupid noob read the code of conduct.

Wow. Maybe you should too.

On topic:
I know there are a few Georgia nerfers. I think Zaxby's is one. At least on his HQ profile it says he lives there. Try contacting him for more people.

Check out this topic there was one last year. http://nerfhaven.com...9561&hl=Georgia



#153882 Other Hobbies Aside From Nerfing?

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 29 April 2008 - 07:33 PM in Off Topic

Play Baseball, guitar, and listen to music.



#154082 Kool-aid

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 30 April 2008 - 11:01 PM in Off Topic

After reading this thread I bought kool-aid packs, for the first time in a few years. It was too sugary, but I just added more water to it. Taste's great!



#154149 Opening The Sawtooth?

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 01 May 2008 - 04:06 PM in Modifications

I bought one (a sawtooth) from poo a while back, and asked him how to get it off. The best way to do so is get a flathead screwdriver and bend two of the three tabs inside the metal rod in the orange handles. There have also been a few topics about this. Like this one and this one.



#154214 Nib Guns

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 01 May 2008 - 11:24 PM in General Nerf

After cleaning my room I noticed I had quite a few NIB guns, so here's a thread to show off what you have.

Posted Image
I have:
4 AT2K's
2 NF's
4 SMDTG's
1 Small Soldiers 500



#154287 Nib Guns

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 02 May 2008 - 05:07 PM in General Nerf

I have those nitefinders because I just never got around to modding them. The SMDTG's because I bought a shitload at my local store a while back.



#154300 Who Knows?

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 02 May 2008 - 05:57 PM in Off Topic

What was that? Didn't really make sense to me.



#154312 Nib Guns

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 02 May 2008 - 07:37 PM in General Nerf

Nice. Where'd you get all that? Thank you for actually posting a picture too.



#154411 Melee Weapons

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 03 May 2008 - 03:14 PM in Homemades

If your going to make a melee weapon, at least make it look somewhat good. Honestly, in the first picture, it looks like a giant yellow piece of crap(literally). I still don't get what you were trying to make on the second either. On a side note: Dangaard that thing looks awesome, I'd like to see some of your more recent stuff.



#154703 Airtech 2000 Stock Add On

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 04 May 2008 - 11:05 PM in Modifications

Can you still open up the gun or did you epoxy it shut? I like the idea of a crutch as a stock, but I don't think many people have crutch's laying around. Nice mod by the way.



#154775 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 07:18 PM in Modifications

I recently got a Crossbow from Mayhem(Thank you), and there is only one thing wrong with it. The plunger head broke off. I haven't seen anyone else have this problem. Does anyone know my best bet in connecting the two pieces back on? I was thinking glue, maybe gorrilla glue? I don't have any experience with epoxy or plumber's goop, but I know they're strong. Keep in mind, the glue has to be able to hold alot, i.e. when the spring is compressed over and over again. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about how it is broken.
Posted Image

Thanks in advanced for your help.



#154780 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 07:30 PM in Modifications

I'm still using the stock spring, I thought about making my own plunger but if possible I'd like to keep the stock one.



#154807 Maxshot?

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 08:39 PM in General Nerf

Keep checking amazon. They stock them sometimes, that's how I got mine.



#154811 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 08:46 PM in Modifications

If you are intent on using the stock plunger, may I suggest attemping to create another plunger rod out of polycarbonate and then holding the stock head on with a some kind of fastening device?


I've never machined anything out of polycarbonate. I'll keep that in mind.

I'd recommend screwing it in from the front, and then epoxy-ing the crap out of it, as it will probably have some exposed threads.


What do you mean by screwing it in the front?



#154814 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 08:48 PM in Modifications

I can make you a custom plunger if you want. PM for details.

There is no real solution to fixing this. Anything will eventually break overtime causing frustration. A homemade plunger is your best bet.



Thanks, I'll pm you.



#154849 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 05 May 2008 - 10:23 PM in Modifications

Thanks for the help everyone, I'll try that this week.

EDIT: After looking at the end of my plunger where there is no plunger head, it is extremely small, less than a quarter inch. I guess I'll have to find a small screw.



#154864 Crossbow Plunger Head

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 06 May 2008 - 12:06 AM in Modifications

Epoxy Putty!


If adding a screw doesn't work out with the plunger head, does this sound sensable, to epoxy the plunger head to the plunger then add epoxy putty? Or would adding the putty do nothing? This is all of course, if the screw thing doesn't work out.



#155009 A Breath Of Fresh Air

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 07 May 2008 - 12:25 AM in News

I'm definently going to attend my first war this summer. I can finally try out all of my modded guns.



#155344 Discussion: Comfortable Blaster Shells

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 10 May 2008 - 01:44 PM in General Nerf

Being one that owns both a crossbow and a sawtooth, I can vouch that they both are very comfortable. The only problem with the sawtooth is that it's stock is a little flimsy, nevertheless still comfortable though. The only problem with the suggestions people will give you, is that it's comfortable to THEM. That doesn't mean it will be comfortable to YOU.

It's your desicion on weather or not to mod your crossbow, but I say mod it. You'll have way more fun modding it and nerfing with it for another year, then leaving it stock and having it's value rise 0-50$. It's all personal choice though.



#155425 2008 Nerf War Schedule

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 11 May 2008 - 01:02 AM in Nerf Wars

I'm thinkin about getting a Washington Nerf war started.... NWNO has a nice ring to it.

Edit: I'm asking if anyone would be interested?


I'd be interested, I know there a few other people from washington here on the boards. Also, someone on NerfHQ is hosting a Washington war in Everett. There isn't an official date yet, if you need the link pm me.



#156661 Use Of Stock Guns

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 22 May 2008 - 09:22 PM in General Nerf

The best Stock blaster is the ERTL Rapid Fire Shotgun. It's range and accuracy are unmatched in the realm of stock blasters. That's the one i would go with in a stock only war.


Are you serious? When I bought that gun and shot it stock, it went about 15ft.
Anyways, with me I never use a stock gun unless it's an indoor war with my friends, which then I use a Magstrike.



#156674 Lancer

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 23 May 2008 - 12:54 AM in Modifications

Imitation is the highest form of flattery.
Has anyone else seen it yet?


Yeah, I saw it, I like his paintjob, but where are the lights? I knew someone was going to do this, I'm kind of amazed of how cleanly he did it though, it's actually pretty good. Not better than the original, but still good.



#156676 Tech Target Gun

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 23 May 2008 - 01:25 AM in Modifications

Here's my TTG mod that I've done to my gun.

First, here's the gun stock, it's ranges are about 25-30ft stock.
Posted Image

Okay, so open it up:
Posted Image

Next, take out the barrel assembly with the plunger tube:
Posted Image

Here it is exploaded:
Posted Image

You don't need any of the items that are orange, and can throw those away. Now, take the plunger tube and get a 3" piece of barrel material. I chose PETG.
Posted Image

Hot glue/epoxy it on the plunger tube as straight as possible now:
Posted Image

Put the gun back together and such:
Posted Image

My TTG is currently being painted right now, so I'll show the final result in a day or two. The ranges of this gun after this mod is about 65ft with rubber bands, depending on the strength of them.

Questions, comments, flames?



#156784 Tech Target Gun

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 24 May 2008 - 12:25 AM in Modifications

Ok, I finished the paintjob, I put masking tape where the original green was and then put a coat of rustoleum blue, which is mettalic blue. Next, I put a "fade" of silver on it.

#156816 Vortex Tornado

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 24 May 2008 - 01:14 PM in Modifications

The Vortex tornado is basically impossible to mod to fire darts, and I don't even really know how it fires the little rings either. Internal Pic.


That's the Firestorm not the tornado.



#156819 Re-styled Tek 10 Mod

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 24 May 2008 - 01:25 PM in Modifications

I searched in the mods directory and I used the searched funtion for what this gun is called and I still can't figuire it out. If anyone knows please tell me. Anyway, I did a mod for the gun I found at good will for 2.99$.

Here's the gun stock:
Posted Image

Before you start unscrewing all of the screws, get off the slider, keep these pieces:
Posted Image

Here are the internals of the gun:
Posted Image

All you need to take out is the turret here:
Posted Image

Here's the air restrictors:
Posted Image

In order to open the turret there's a screw at the top that you need to unscrew, next take a flat head screwdriver and pry it open carefully, don't force it:
Posted Image

This is the turret exploaded:
Posted Image

See all of those pegs? Sand and cut off them until it becomes smooth. Now add your barrel of choice. I chose PETG, and cut it 2 1/2 inches long. Next, glue them straight where the pegs used to be and the put the barrel assembly back together. Here's the turret now:
Posted Image

The final product:
Posted Image

This gun sucks, don't get it unless you find it for cheap. My ranges were around the 40's untill the cocking slider broke on me. Again, if anyone knows what this gun is called please tell! All it says on the gun is Air zone and Buzz Bee.

Any questions, comments, flames?



#156861 Re-styled Tek 10 Mod

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 24 May 2008 - 10:24 PM in Modifications

I'm doing an integration inside of the Sawtooth. The only reason I got this gun was because it was 3$, don't get this gun if you ever see it though. Mine already broke and I don't really want to fix it because its performance sucks.

Re-styled Tek 10? I'll change the title of the thread.



#156977 Marvelous Salvo

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 25 May 2008 - 11:39 PM in Modifications

Ok, I'd like to give all the credit to imaseolman's Marvelous Salvo, I'm pretty sure this can also work with hornet tanks also because of the way they are built. Anyway, if anyone needed a short easy way to do it with pictures, read this writeup.

First, get your Big Salvo:
Posted Image

Now open it up:
Posted Image

After that cut off 3 barrels leaving enough tubing so you can add tubing connectors/ barbed fittings:
Posted Image

Ok, now get you SMDTG:
Posted Image

Open it up and take out the internals. Cut off the orignal barrels as well as the pump. Again, leaving enough space for tubing connectors/ barbed fittings. Here's the SMDTG and the Big salvo internals:
Posted Image

Lastly, get a pump and tubing connectors/ barbed fittings. Pretty obvious on what to do from here, but here's a picture:
Posted Image

I used an AT2K pump, but I'm sure others would work. Once again thanks to imaseolman for thinking up this idea as well as answering a few questions a while back.

Questions, comments, flames?



#156980 Marvelous Salvo

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 26 May 2008 - 12:21 AM in Modifications

It's an AT2K pump and I plugged it. It takes around 20 pumps untill it is hard to pump. I got the tubing connectors at Home Depot, they are 1/4"OD(1/8"CTS). I bought around 10 of them so I'm pretty much set.



#156983 Marvelous Salvo

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 26 May 2008 - 12:29 AM in Modifications

So you just screw them around the tubbing?


The Big Salvo barrels? Yes.



#156986 Marvelous Salvo

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 26 May 2008 - 01:23 AM in Modifications

Killer integration material!
I will most likely be doing this in the future.
Are the ranges still similar to the big salvo with the smaller valve on there?

I don't even know where to classify this in the directory? Anyone got any ideas?


Yeah, I'm still debating on wheather to put this on my crossbow or sawtooth. I've had this done for a while now but I haven't range tested. Again, imaseolman who made this, said that he was getting around the 100's in his thread. So I'm guessing I'd be getting around the same with PETG barrels.

For the directory thing, you could put it under integrations for both the Big Salvo and the SMDTG. Even though it's not actually another gun inside of another.

I just noticed, 3 writeups in 3 days! Expect that streak to end tommarow.



#157014 War @ Marymoor!

Posted by ChiliPepperFender on 26 May 2008 - 12:19 PM in Nerf Wars

This sucks, I live in Redmond and won't even be able to go. I have a Baseball game that day at noon and will most likey not be attending that day. How long will the war last? I'll probably get home around 3:00-4:00, and I might be able to make it for a few hours, because it's just a short 2 min. drive down to Marymoor.
