#289382 Illinois Foam Fest 4

Posted by cheerios on 29 November 2010 - 03:53 PM in Nerf Wars

+Maybe a mod party at Cheerios' place someday


Yeah, we totally need to schedule something. My yard is also big enough for a war if we want to do that as well.

#288965 Illinois Foam Fest 4

#281540 Illinois Foam Fest 3

Posted by cheerios on 28 July 2010 - 09:29 PM in Nerf Wars

#280107 Illinois Foam Fest 3

Posted by cheerios on 12 July 2010 - 10:25 PM in Nerf Wars

Jesus, this is turning out to have good attendance.



#275958 Illinois Foam Fest 2

Posted by cheerios on 25 May 2010 - 06:43 PM in Nerf Wars

I'll be there. I would prefer a different location though, that park takes me an hour and a half to get there which is pretty ridiculous for a war that would have pretty low attendance.



#277643 Illinois Foam Fest 2

Posted by cheerios on 13 June 2010 - 08:37 PM in Nerf Wars

Bobbo + x
yBrik + x
Demon Lord

Please confirm your attendance. Also, we will have a pistols round, so bring one.


I am a definete, and thank you for adding in a pistol round. If anyone needs to borrow one I will have an extra.



#273179 Illinois Foam Fest

Sorry noodle I can't make it in such short notice.



#283681 Hvz Next Gun

Posted by cheerios on 21 August 2010 - 05:07 PM in General Nerf

If your doing HVZ get a raider, the drum mags come in handy. Also like gears said a spartan and a tacticool vest would be another very good combo.



#331517 How to fix torn Magstrike air-bladder

Posted by cheerios on 03 July 2013 - 08:49 AM in Modifications

I have a stock magstrike that I can gut for the bladder if you want to buy it. Replacing the bladder at this point is your best option.



#342497 Hoppered Magstrike

Posted by cheerios on 19 October 2014 - 02:28 PM in Modifications

3. For airguns you typically want a loose fit. What material ultimately depends on your specific foam, but petg or 9/16" brass would probably work well for you.


Tue, but the Magstrike doesn't work like an air gun, it works more like a springer with its piston mechanism.



#291267 Hopper Clip For Stock Tagger Darts

Posted by cheerios on 20 December 2010 - 10:46 PM in Darts and Barrels

Nice to see you found a use for the 45 degree bends. Can't wait to see an improved version.

Zorn's FAL 2 became my FAL 2. The plunger tube exploded so I had to fix that and reinforce the priming handle.

Posted by cheerios on 03 February 2013 - 06:01 PM in Homemades

Finally the best shell ever is getting the TLC that it has always deserved. It is the most comfortable shell and it fits a 2.25" plunger tube perfectly with 5" of draw.

It shoots as far as Ryan's plusbow. Shoots through cardboard with slugs but not with AMIORS or silicone domes.

#317630 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by cheerios on 27 June 2012 - 10:06 PM in Homemades

I got some shit done recently.

Posted Image

Built this snap variant of the rainbowpup a couple days after Ryan made his. It shoots 90-95' with a less than optimal seal.

Posted Image

I upgraded my rainbowpump rev. 1 into a rev 2. It uses rubber grommets to make it dry fireable and uses a beaver omni directional catch.

Posted Image

I made this in an attempt to make a super short gun, It's as short as a maxshot.

Also for those who didn't see Louie being super butt hurt on Nrev, this is my entrance blaster for his bull-pup contest it is directly based off of his revshot carbine design.
It is nicknamed "Butt Hurt?"

Posted Image

It shoots 90' consistently.

#334038 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by cheerios on 15 September 2013 - 07:06 PM in Homemades

I performed some maintenance on Zorn's FAL 2 this weekend. It didn't way too much work, just the usual fixes for FAL 2s.

  • Replace the plunger tube with opaque PVC (clear PVC cracks easily)
  • Fine tune the trigger. It actually catches now.
  • Re-attached the handle with epoxy putty instead of hot glue an zip ties
  • Filled unnecessary holes in the plunger tube and bushings.
  • Made a new spacer to attach the priming handle to the plunger tube. The original was 1/2" long and the new one is 2.5" long.

Pictured with the other blasters I've fixed that once belonged to Zorn.

I also finished up a new bullpup blaster that is a spring powered version of Kane's BullPACs; It is the same size and has a better name "BullShit".
Here it is with it's predecessor the "BullCrap"

#335147 Help with a barrel for elite darts in my rainbow

Posted by cheerios on 02 November 2013 - 06:06 PM in Darts and Barrels

The air vent hole on the side of the dart head is what causes Streamlines to spin out of control. They weigh more than regular slugs so they're plenty heavy, so weight isn't the issue. Streamlines and elites in general are pretty worthless in any blaster with more power than an elite blaster; just make some stefans if you are dead set on using your pump-snap.



#284823 Hell Before Halloween #4

Posted by cheerios on 05 September 2010 - 07:08 AM in Nerf Wars

I might be able to make it, due to my dad going up there for a weekend business thing.



#250582 Happy Birthday Sluggy!

Happy Birthday Captain Slug. Happy Birthday Sputnik.



#255070 Happy Birthday Forsaken_angel24!

Happy Birthday, Angel!



#315520 Hamtch

Posted by cheerios on 10 May 2012 - 05:48 PM in Homemades

Other than that, it is just as comfortable to use as any other snap, and you get the benefit of a super-durable catch!

In what way is the snap catch not durable?



#290772 Guns Guns Guns!

Posted by cheerios on 12 December 2010 - 09:35 PM in General Nerf

A rainbow pump from Ryan is one of the best investments you'll ever make (Nerf wise). You're never need a new primary.



#282060 Guide To Barrel Material

Posted by cheerios on 04 August 2010 - 06:46 AM in Modifications

I think your talking about sched 80 PVC, It's the only Grey PVC I can think of.



#340675 Green Bay Nerfinz

Posted by cheerios on 23 July 2014 - 11:35 PM in Nerf Wars

Pretty much anything after the 16th doesn't work for me. I would vote for the 9th if that is an option.



#302499 FOMAS 2.0

Posted by cheerios on 29 July 2011 - 06:04 PM in Homemades

This looks like a giant pipe bomb. Maybe I overlooked it, but does this have an OPRV?



#339213 Failed attempt at silicone tip creation.

Posted by cheerios on 28 May 2014 - 02:37 PM in Darts and Barrels

I very well may be contacting you about the mold, but my dart tips finally cured and I'm going to attempt later to get them out of the wooden mold and if its successful and not too messy then I may just continue using my own but were you talking $15 plus shipping or 15 shipped?


$15 plus shipping.



#331021 ESLT Blaster Build Guide

Posted by cheerios on 18 June 2013 - 04:35 PM in Homemades

Just completed the handle. I was wondering if a 1/2" pvc coupler could be used to plug the wye instead of the 3/4" plug?


You would still have a hole in the wye with a coupler. Also the plugs are a more efficient method.

Not long to release now.


How long until these kits are for sale?



#248403 Dtb Help

Did you put in the white piece that stabalizes the turret? Thats what my problem was.

Carbon has been pretty busy lately so I'm taking over the Directory for him. Please don't post in the thread. Here's the original directory thread by Carbon for posterity.

The Nerfhaven Homemade Directory is the repository of past completed projects of the Haven. Use it as a resource to see whats been accomplished before, to find new (or old) techniques, or to get inspiration for your next project. PM me if your homemade isn't in the directory or if certain links aren't working. PM Aeromech if your writeup doesn't appear here within a week of posting.

This post will be updated as new projects are added to the forum.

#294817 Dekalb Area War Of Nerf, July 23rd

Posted by cheerios on 21 February 2011 - 11:03 AM in Nerf Wars

I know I'll be there. Would "slug type" be able to have 3/16" ball bearings as weight.
