#110391 Petg Breach

As for lengths of tubing, I will post an update in a few hours.
#110362 Petg Breach
Posted by CD-R on 09 June 2007 - 11:08 PM in Modifications
First off, here are the materials you will need:
PETG: about 6 inches of it
1/2" brass: 3/4 inch length
1/2" CPVC: About 3/4 inch length
1/2" PVC: about an one and a quarter inches
5/8" brass (with a slot cut into it): The slot is 1 and 3/4 inches long, and is cut about 13/16 inches from the end. The whole length is about 5 and 3/4 inches.
First, dremmel out the CPVC so that the 1/2" brass fits snuggly about 1/4" inside of it.
Next, Put a seal of teflon tape around the 1/2" brass.
Then, push the CPVC into the PVC all the way to the end of the PVC.
Then, push the 5/8" brass into the PVC so that it goes into the same end as the 1/2" brass is sticking out of.
Last, push the PETG in the breach, and it's ready for use. Use it for whatever you can think of, or maybe put a magazine/clip on it.
The breach works by having the PETG seal against the 1/2" brass in the back. The 5/8" brass is to hold the dart in place as the PETG bolt(?) is moved into place.
#105175 Measuring Ranges
Posted by CD-R on 12 May 2007 - 10:04 PM in General Nerf
We used a tape measure and chalk to mark out ten foot increments on a straight, flat section of my street. We then wrote the accompanying numbers next to the marks.
This took us only about two to three minutes to do. This method was very simple, and gave us very accurate measurements. It's really basic, but I figured I'd post about it in an attempt to help reduce the amount of inaccuracy pertaining to gun ranges.

Back on topic, just drill a small hole through both sides of the plastic where the cocking bar was, then stick a bar of metal through the holes as a replacement. Try to make the replacement roughly the same size as the original, or else it will rub on the inside of the gun and get stuck if it's to thick, or bend in half if it's to thin. Personally, I cut a 1/8" thick nail to the right length and glue it in place (it's a little thick though).
EDIT: bobofan beat me to it.
#105333 Splitfire Leak Problem.
Posted by CD-R on 13 May 2007 - 09:18 PM in Modifications
Now I have some time. Ok, so here is a link to where the splitfire's valves are explained:
click here
scroll about 2/3 the way down the page, the post is by falcon.
What I am saying, is you need to find a way to either push the little black rubber seals back into position, or to lubricate them with something to make them seal better. I'm afraid that to do this, you're on your own, as I was not able to fix mine despite numerous attempts.

#107351 Best Possible Mods?
Posted by CD-R on 23 May 2007 - 08:33 PM in Modifications
For range however, I think that the national geographic thing is the best. Then again, with air tank expansions, anything is possible.

#125637 Sts Grenade
Posted by CD-R on 09 October 2007 - 07:38 PM in Modifications
In terms of improving the grenade idea, maybe you should try shotgun barrel attachments. The Pocket Blaster may not have enough power to drive them, but if it does, it should increase the amount of darts in the air.

Back on topic. If you're looking for lenses, check out Edmund Scientific, or any other hobby level supply site. Unless you have some very specialized tools, the level of alignment you would be able to get by hand would pretty much negate the advantages of good optics.
P.S. don't look at the sun with one of those things.
#124862 Go Trash-picking
Posted by CD-R on 02 October 2007 - 11:06 PM in General Nerf
Once our school district was replacing all of their computers, so we asked our counselors if we could take some of it, and they said yes. We all walked away with arm fulls of computer junk. We had to call my friend's mom to help us drive the stuff away (I believe one of my friends had something like five to ten computers).
The real trick, is to keep your eyes open. Also, try going to your local recycling center a few days after christmas; my brother and I did that once, and the guys there let us take a perfectly good TV for free. They even let us test it with an outlet on one of their garbage trucks.
#127200 Petg And Stefan
Posted by CD-R on 24 October 2007 - 07:50 PM in General Nerf
Well, within reasonable boundaries that's true, but not necessarily in all circumstances.Size means nothing. Its the strength of the spring. The DS spring is more powerful. Also, you need to make sure your darts have a good fit in PETG.It might be bigger. Tonight I'll take a picture of both of them side-by-side. We will see.
I've had problems like this. It's usually one, or both of these problems; the barrel is too long, or the stefan doesn't fit properly. First, I would try making the barrel shorter (try 4" first, than 3"), if that doesn't work, try CPVC as your barrel material. Also, try lubricating the plunger, and make sure that you have a good seal. If all of that doesn't work, put the stock spring back in.
If all of this doesn't help, then I have no idea what's wrong.
#107142 Night Battle
Posted by CD-R on 22 May 2007 - 08:15 PM in Nerf Wars
If we bring our own weapons? every body is going to bring their own weapons. Also, the vast majority of people use home made darts. Are you absolutely sure that home made darts not allowed?If you bring your own wepons dont bring stephons.
With that said, using a paintball park sounds pretty cool. I will talk to the other members of our clan, but it sounds a little far away for us.
#124605 The Battle Is Over
Posted by CD-R on 30 September 2007 - 07:54 PM in Nerf Wars
Skitzo and nerf beginner were hiding in the bushes during a pistol round, when they accidentally disturbed a bees nest. I was walking around the field, as I was already out, when I heard shouting and running. I looked behind me, and saw the two of them charging out of the bushes at top speed being pursued by a number of insects. Instead of running away from everybody else, they ran straight at the people who were already out. Because they were being persued, the bees followed them into the crowd, and stung everybody. After seeing this, I took off in the other direction. However, Skitzo had stopped running around in circles, and was now running in the same direction that I was; still being chased by bees. I yelled, "don't follow me, you're gonna get me stung too!" So I ran faster, and managed to keep from getting stung. In the end, most people got stung, and we were VERY lucky that no one was allergic to bees.
So, if you were wondering, there's your answer.

#109613 2 At2ks And A Bbb
Posted by CD-R on 05 June 2007 - 05:17 PM in Modifications
Looks like you beat me to the write-up on this. I tried basically the exact same thing, except I used the pump and check valves out of a dead splitfire. I can testify that this works very well.
#109652 2 At2ks And A Bbb
Posted by CD-R on 05 June 2007 - 08:34 PM in Modifications
Basically, I took the dead (really dead) splitfire, and glued the AT2K pump assembly to the front of the splitfire pump assembly. This way, the splitfire pump chamber also became an air tank. Then, I cut off the orange air tanks from the splitfire, and mounted two of those little barbed tubing couplers inside the yellow pipes on the inside of the splitfire. Lastly, I pushed the AT2K air tank tubes unto the barbed couplers. This way, the spltfire airtanks had been replaced with the AT2K airtanks.How the heck do you use a splitfire?
If this sounds like complete gibberish, just say so, and I will post a picture of it.

I am not trying to criticize you, or doubt your design. I would just like to know how you made something that powerful.

#107718 Kickback
Posted by CD-R on 26 May 2007 - 10:15 PM in Homemades
Back on topic, I do not think that it is practically possible to make a nerf gun with real kick back. The only toy gun that I have seen with considerate push back, is a CPS 3200 supersoaker. That thing was so powerful that on its highest setting, it could push against you with considerable force (back when I was in sixth grade, that is).

And as for shooting them out of a gun? Well sure, let's shoot burning chunks of chemicals at each other. I think it would be cool to do, but unfortunately, it's just too dangerous.
#108063 Nesting
Posted by CD-R on 28 May 2007 - 09:53 PM in Modifications
That has been extensively discussed (maybe too extensively). The general consensus was that it was not possible. You can use the search function to find the thread.so, as a follow up question, would it be possible/feasable to rifle a barrel? That would give a lot more accuracy than a less snug barrel that the dart smacks around on would.

No seriously, Z80 and I got into Nerf the same way. I was at our clan's first game about a year and a half ago.
