#309199 Make Magazine.

Posted by Eik on 07 January 2012 - 01:50 AM in General Nerf

It almost looks like Carbons original Snap.

I'd say it more resembles Boltsniper's GNS

I saw the video today. For some reason stuff like this makes me mad.

Some reason...that you didn't feel worth posting? What's so wrong with Make showing off an interesting homemade build?
Many of the people who read Make might have valuable insight or ideas to bring to this hobby, and Make reaches a pretty wide audience.



#308868 Simple CPVC Tek-3 Micro Turret With Vacuum Loading

Posted by Eik on 28 December 2011 - 11:26 PM in Modifications

Excellent. I was working on this exact thing, but I smashed it to pieces in the process.



#308867 Contest Suggestion

Posted by Eik on 28 December 2011 - 11:23 PM in General Nerf

If there is no prize, there is no contest. You are just telling NIC modders to do what they already do. What a waste of a post.

Still needs some work
-Stock is slightly too long for me
-1" PVC plunger is too heavy, need to drill out
-Spring isn't reaching full expansion
-Priming shroud is too long, and wobbly. needs some kind of guide.
-Need to add cool electronics to 'scope'

#307513 MN NERF WAR!

Posted by Eik on 18 November 2011 - 10:19 PM in Nerf Wars

Welp my ride bailed so I'll be attempting to bus in from minneap. If anyone could give me a ride I'd throw you some gas $ or nerf stuff.



#307400 MN NERF WAR!

Trying to drum up support from 1-2 hopefuls.



#307299 Nite-Jolt - Mini SMG Style NF/Jolt Integration

Posted by Eik on 13 November 2011 - 02:51 AM in Modifications

This is just so cool. I bet it would look great with a Gear Up or Whiteout NF.
I can't seem to find these at my ghetto Kmart. Is it an exclusive?



#306670 HellaWeen Warfestravagasm 2011!

Posted by Eik on 29 October 2011 - 02:44 PM in Nerf Wars

Sorry I flaked, I was under the weather and couldn't get everything together in time.
My sincerest apologies to anyone I had business with, I really wanted to go.



#306565 HellaWeen Warfestravagasm 2011!

Posted by Eik on 26 October 2011 - 08:46 PM in Nerf Wars

Oh yeah, I might like to buy/trade for a cool springer primary. Whattyagot EIK?


Well, I don't have any primary-quality mods done, but I'd be willing to let these two SNAPs go for around $35/ea. or something. I'd definitely be interested in trades too 'cause there's plenty of blasters I haven't painted yet.
Posted Image
Both are Rork's MK 5 build with superlative plungerheads

VSS (purple)
-first snapbow I made, first primary I took to a war [SPANO].
-foam on the butt
-Foregrip is sturdy as hell, can be removed for other attachments using 1/2" coupler
-trigger nail sometimes pops out of hole if you pull too hard

SMG (red & gold)
-Unfinished (this can be done before Saturday) -needs trigger, endcap
-Wood grip has foregrip built in, contoured for hands
-I don't have a rifle stock prepped for this, but I can switch it out with the VSS one


-the hopper I made is kinda ghetto, glued together, and has a very short CPVC barrel.

Also: I added to my wtb/wtt list

Posted Image
EDIT: BOSS9, I have this recon(w/o attachments & barrel). I can attach the little piece on the stock, I just removed it cause it looked better.
Maybe we could work something out.
I could definitely use some of that PETG.



#306281 Mallow Crossbow, only 1 part modified.

Posted by Eik on 21 October 2011 - 11:27 AM in Modifications

My little brother has one of these that I'm pushing him to finish– it's all painted, he just needs to fix up his coupler mod and reassemble.

The bow arms seemed a little weak to flip– maybe you could add some reinforcement? Like bending strips of metal and mechanically attach?

Or scrap them entirely and add an extension spring on the inside of the plunger, like the SNAP Revolution or SonReese's inverse plunger mod



#306280 HellaWeen Warfestravagasm 2011!

Posted by Eik on 21 October 2011 - 11:18 AM in Nerf Wars

Nope!

Chuck Testa-cles!

I really hope I can make it to this– school has been cray cray as of late.
I think I can finish up a few projects before, maybe even get some stuff painted for trading/sales!

Also I am looking for:
Clear Nitefinder
N-Strike attachments (scopes, etc.)
Clear PVC for clips
scraps for building a L+L
Spectre Stock
Recon barrel
BBB
Manta
Firefly shell
older blasters i can't buy in stores

EDIT: added more things to my list, closing in on finishing my Revolution



#306166 Nerf modifications in the Netherlands, how we role!

Posted by Eik on 18 October 2011 - 10:19 PM in Modifications

Do you have a link to this "Nerf Hyve"?



#304103 New Buzzbee Hawk

Posted by Eik on 30 August 2011 - 08:55 PM in General Nerf

Would the priming mech be able to handle a [k26]? If so then angel breeching the main gun with an air tank for power could indeed yield a proud primary.


It's a fun gun to mess around with, but its more or less a RFR inside. A [k26] definitely would be out of the question.



#304090 NE Minneapolis MN War

Posted by Eik on 30 August 2011 - 06:42 PM in Nerf Wars

I'm interested.
Since this won't be all the way in St. Paul it'll be much more reachable for me & my gang.



#303910 Recapping: Late August Minnesota War

#301304 Blast Valve/QFD imitation

Nice work Buff
I have one of them Super soaker quick fill valves, but i never stopped to think about its Nerf implications.



#300917 Homemade N-Strike Rail

Posted by Eik on 02 July 2011 - 10:52 PM in Homemades

I couldn’t find a writeup of this, but it’s awfully simple.
I used some plexi I found, which appears to be about 2mm thick.

Cut a strip approx. 18mm wide and a strip 11mm wide.
Posted Image

Glue the smaller strip centered on the larger.
Posted Image

Mark a channel in the center of the larger rail.
Posted Image

Dremel that space out. Also Dremel a divot where the notch on the N-Strike attachment will rest.
Posted Image

Attach the completed rail to your blaster using glue or screws or whatever.
Posted Image

Nifty!

#300122 SPANO 2011 Recap

Posted by Eik on 18 June 2011 - 08:46 PM in Nerf Wars

SPANO 6 was spectacular; the sloppiest, craziest, most Effeminate war thus far. I took 3 buses and walked 2 miles to be there, and it was well worth it.


Pros:
-Muttonchops keeping my face warm when the rain hit
-My SNAP performed well, after some battlefield surgery
-Meeting all these people, putting names to faces
-Badass sliding moves in the mud
-So many people


Cons:
-Not enough darts
-Came late to the party
-Marinating in rain and mud
-Shot in the throat by something powerful



#300069 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by Eik on 17 June 2011 - 09:52 PM in Homemades

More progress on the Warpbow
Unfortunately, I don't think it will be fully operational before SPANO
