#286152 Pull-back To Pump-action Conversion - Snap
Posted by Y-Brik on 27 September 2010 - 05:17 PM in Homemades
Maybe they don't like wood.Thanks durka.
I'm a little perplexed over the apparent lack of interest in this, especially from the more experienced SNAP builders, but whatever.
Naah, that's an east coast thing. I do like this setup, just waiting to see it come to fruition. Oh and Fome, all your shit is so BA it intimidates the rest of us. We're used to plastic, not so much woodcrafting.
#300531 JSPB (3DBBQ/Taiwan-style) darts?
Posted by Y-Brik on 25 June 2011 - 11:07 PM in Darts and Barrels
You sir have never used Teflon Tape- 'tape' is used strongly with this stuff, it shreds like wet toilet paper and has no adhesion. Etape or PVC tape , if you look at the darts have a smaller final OD than the foam of the dart- no contact with the barrel means no friction already.I would also throw in Teflon tape for consideration. That should translate to less friction, but that is purely guess work.
Meanwhile, I'm detecting a potential winner for the 'new dart' challenge- I love the concept of wrapping the weight around the outside of the dart instead of slapping it right on the intended contact point. Will watch this thread carefully....

//Slight off-topic- TI also makes a programmable, wireless watch with accelerometers. Could this be used in a high-tech nerf gun? Possibly, probably not, but it's cool.
#305791 Need help locating where I can get a spring for the Bullet Guard for t
Posted by Y-Brik on 12 October 2011 - 08:50 PM in Modifications
Ace # 2 is WAY too strong!Ace #2 or 3 should be good. Take the dart tooth in and test fit, then cut it to the right size.
Gut a clicky pen, try to find a fatter pen so the spring is larger, then shave down the '+' under the dart tooth until it fits.
Also, firing bullets out of a Nerf gun never works. Everything here is made to shoot darts.

#297318 A new style Pump-action SNAP
Posted by Y-Brik on 19 April 2011 - 04:22 PM in Homemades
I got mine at Do It Best; they have online ordering with free shipping to your nearest store- go here. It's $4-ish for 10' with no shipping hassles or driving to numerous Ace's to search for the stuff.Beautiful. May I ask where you happened to find 1 and 1/2" thinwall pvc? If I can get my hands on some of that, I will have to make one of these.

Dude, there's a pretty descriptive youtube link that shows it in the show. Oh, and to all of you who have survived this long without having heard of iCarly, I envy you.You saw that on Icarly?so i was watching icarly and in the titles theres a clip of video with sam holding a a orange mgl it looks like thisgrenade pic can anyone identify it? I've looked in the blaster identification pinned topic and can't find it.
#301936 SNAP Carbine mk2
Posted by Y-Brik on 20 July 2011 - 11:19 PM in Homemades
As I recall, a modern washer sandwich plunger head a la Superlative, Preemptive, etc. cost around $2.50, are locally sourced, easier to make, more reliable, and provide a 100% air seal if done right. Why are we running back to reinvent the wheel when it comes to Snaps?In English, improvement does not mean perfection. However I dont know if that remains the same in whatever language you speak.
I don't need to order a 5 dollar part off mcmaster to get a perfect seal when a $1.10 worth of materials gets me the same seal. And if it starts to fail, I can open up the blaster, replace the tape and the o-ring, and re-lube it and have it ready for the next round. I'm not making a fucking military grade weapon.
That said, well done on the writeup. I think the carbine is an excellent super-easy-to-make homemade for the newbies and a great shits&giggles blaster for the rest of us. But that is all it is.

EDIT- I have the green light! I'm a definite with at least 1 friend, checking around to see if more want to go. I'm low on darts though...
#292319 Nerf Dart Tag Quick 16
Posted by Y-Brik on 06 January 2011 - 12:32 AM in General Nerf
I absolutely love this new clip system- high ROF, we get taggers back, and you dont need to yank a clunky mag out of your blaster to reload (or, worse, haul a million of said clunky mags to keep reload times as low as possible). I'm 100% sure BOTH blasters are REVERSE PLUNGERS (big suprise), but I dont care. The Q16 is going to be the ultimate contender in indoor wars to date.

#319067 Retaliator/Recon Pump Grip (write up included)
Posted by Y-Brik on 23 July 2012 - 11:44 PM in Modifications
Close, but there's also something to be said for original design. Jams did occur, I ended up selling this and getting a Raider when I realized that's what I was basically building (The AT wasn't out yet, and quite frankly I hate the ergonomics of it)That is awesome. I like how compact it still is, and how it has the light and red dot. It makes the alpha troop look kind of useless at that point.
Perfect? No. Useful and fun? Definitely.

#288639 The Eccentric, Airtech And Supermaxx Series Overhaul
Posted by Y-Brik on 20 November 2010 - 12:57 AM in Modifications
I doubt it seeing as he then sends the air thru a 1/8"-ish hole into the RSCB.Very original idea to turn the tank around and use a trigger like that. Did you widen the dump valve before?
@Boot- very nice, I like seeing the creativity (if not as much cosmetics- I can live with that) coming across the pond! Keep it up!

Is there any reason you used thinwall PETG (Airgun fit) instead of medium/thickwall (Springer fit)?

#309630 Nerf Vulcan
Posted by Y-Brik on 17 January 2012 - 10:40 AM in General Nerf
1. Where did you hear these claims? If it's anything like the umpteen other guns with several generations (LS, Recon, NF), then the range and power difference is something like a foot or less (read-no difference).I really can't wait anymore to get this big fat gun out of the box but until I got confirmation that my model of the Vulcan is not inferior to any existing model I won't open the box.......
2. You have a stock Vulcan and you're afraid of inferior blasters....yeah.
3. Your link is not loading. If it's a picture, upload it to a photo sharing site and embed it with the appropriate tags.
tl/dr: This is a non-issue: play with your toy! If you see major issues, you can consider modding it or, you know, getting a nerf gun that's actually reliable and powerful.
#300369 Sonic Bazooka Knockoff + Buzz Bee Hunter
Posted by Y-Brik on 22 June 2011 - 04:23 PM in Modifications
Talio, is the point of NH to only promote the Hereticorps, McNumbers, and Slugs of the community? I always thought it was a point to share knowledge and ideas- in this case the mod is defintely not beautiful, but far better than many I've seen in my time here. Carving the Hunter into an underslung integration is an interesting idea and novel to the site. For what it's worth, that idea alone is helpful, at least to me.
