#302244 Effeminate 2.3

Posted by nisaburo on 25 July 2011 - 06:48 PM in Nerf Wars

Great war as usual guys!
Highlights:
-talking shop with people and hammering out some interesting concepts.
-Winning civil war and taking home a shiny new leaky hornet.
-minimum amount of sportsmanship problems.

Hope to have a lot of new stuff done for the next round and I hope that goes for everyone else too.

BTW I was one of the winners of the Orange works mod contest for my mavcon. Anyone have suggestions for what I should pick? Thanks for the votes!



#302167 making an N-strike compatible wooden stock using Rhino - input needed

Posted by nisaburo on 24 July 2011 - 11:55 AM in Modifications

Good point. I was about to say "i won't be the one machining it" and then I had an idea: cut the model in half on the computer and have the CNC machine just grind out the two halves and then glue them together. Problem solved.

Not really. Almost any way you spit that into two pieces will have undercuts. Unless you have a really fancy 5 or 6 axis machine it won't be able to cut it. I suggest you tak to the person cutting it for you about what the machine limitations are before you get too deep in th design.

Gave my RFSG K-9 special a little upgrade.

Old and busted

New hotness

wood grip, little changes to the shell and a PCV homemade pump handle. Was starting to look a little too real for my liking so it got a nice splash of paint too.



#301924 making an N-strike compatible wooden stock using Rhino - input needed

Posted by nisaburo on 20 July 2011 - 09:02 PM in Modifications

Do you have experience working with a CNC? Make sure that your machine can handle the size of your model. I worry about depth of the plunger cover hole, if your bit isn't long enough you're just going to destroy your model. And your machine.



#301851 Effeminate 2.3

Posted by nisaburo on 20 July 2011 - 01:32 AM in Nerf Wars

I'll have 2 at3ks, an air-op SM3k, firefly(taer?) and probably some other stuff for sale. Hopefully when Taerkitty has his fill of reactors there will be one left for me.

On a personal note, I entered the Orange Mod Works contest and would really appreciate the support. If you have the time and inclination please go to their facebook page and vote for my mavcon. If I win I'll show everyone the fancy aluminum internals at the next war~.



#298841 Effeminate 2.2

Posted by nisaburo on 28 May 2011 - 03:17 AM in Nerf Wars

I have my Senior thesis project to be finishing up that I am woefully behind on so I can't afford to be running around like a child. As much as I would like to. I'll see everyone this summer I hope!



#297768 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 02 May 2011 - 12:33 AM in Nerf Wars

Any day works fine for me, but Sunday works better for some of my friends usually.

June 4th sounds fine for me.



#297199 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 16 April 2011 - 03:59 AM in Nerf Wars

Im also looking for a blue nitefinder.



#296996 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 01 April 2011 - 02:23 AM in Nerf Wars

Sounds good. I just went on a buying frenzy, and need to clear stuff out.

That said, I was wondering if anyone was passing through Bellevue tht I can hitch a ride with? I don't drive, so the three or four miles from home to the park is a huge timesuck.

PM me with a pick up point, I think I can swing by and pick you up on the way.

EDIT: Amendment to my sales list, blue longshot, stock but faded SM1500 old style and possibly a max shot if I get a good enough offer.



#296868 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 30 March 2011 - 12:30 AM in Nerf Wars

Nisaburo, are you still interested in mavericks?

Yessir. I'd much prefer to trade than pay for them though.



#296810 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 29 March 2011 - 02:53 AM in Nerf Wars

Also, I'll take 100' Freyr.



#296790 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 28 March 2011 - 09:05 PM in Nerf Wars

Tantum, what are the odds of getting some more 2k spacers?



#296687 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 27 March 2011 - 02:26 AM in Nerf Wars

Oh man, I'm excited for games with that cover, great move Danial!
So what are people bringing for trade or sale? Thought I'd give a sneak peak:
lightening blitz, new style sm1500, AT3k, a few first gen nitefinders, longstrike, purple BBB and some other stuff.

I'm also taking a page from Taerkitty and will be bringing a tub (literally a tub) full of parts, shells, partial blasters and stuff FOR FREE!



#296199 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 18 March 2011 - 03:39 AM in Nerf Wars

Looks like the 17th shouldn't be a problem. I'm in the market for a ballzooka and a fire fury.



#295983 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 13 March 2011 - 11:53 PM in Nerf Wars

Ok, the 17th then. Cool Ill put in the request this week.



#295423 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 05 March 2011 - 10:49 PM in Nerf Wars

Who is Thrax? Steavie?

I have too many WIPs...



#295334 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 04 March 2011 - 01:32 PM in Nerf Wars

Nisaburo, did you replace the spring on your RF20, and, if so, can I haz a part number? :)


I actually just doubled up on the spring. Unfortunately I just used a random spring in my parts box. I'll see if I can't revisit the mod before the war and come up with and answer for you though.



#295299 Effeminate 2.1

Posted by nisaburo on 03 March 2011 - 06:39 PM in Nerf Wars

Yes, yes a thousand times yes! I can make whatever work, but I just need a few weeks notice to clear it with the boss. I've been working on my supped RF20 and got the ranges up to around 60' with new barrel lengths. It needs to be tested in the field though.



#293296 The Semiauto Salvo

Posted by nisaburo on 24 January 2011 - 03:52 PM in Modifications

Where are you hooking all of your tanks up to the trigger assembly? It seems like there must be a way to prevent venting without a check valve in this set up, similar to Boot's design.



#290444 Nerf Barricade - Clip Conversion - Mod Guide!

Posted by nisaburo on 08 December 2010 - 05:23 AM in Modifications

Thanks!

Btw, "moddersunited" over at the HvZ forum has developed the clip conversion further and discovered another way to secure the clips... and his design seems to be able to hold the heavier 35-dart drum mags more securely:

Imho, that's a very good idea! :D

Ha, I like it because its what I said to do!



#290106 Nerf Barricade - Clip Conversion - Mod Guide!

Posted by nisaburo on 05 December 2010 - 12:09 AM in Modifications

Just beautiful! I ordered one after reading this write-up! I'll suggest the raider clip well as a possible easy and clean way to securely attach magazines.



#289920 The Mirage-ss, Simple And Effective Semi Automatic Design

Posted by nisaburo on 03 December 2010 - 05:05 PM in Modifications

Nerfgeek, Boot says that he uses the hornet plunger valve because it only vents the air from the BS tank. If he used a regular blast button in conjunction with the magstrike bladder then it would fire the BS tank but also lose a lot of air from the bladder.

Boot, this is stupidly simple and I love it. Before I actually read the writeup I thought it was just another dumb RSCB'ed tank and bladder set up being dubbed "semi-auto." This can actually easily be made semi auto. Fantastic work!

#286480 Effeminate Summer War Part 7

Posted by nisaburo on 03 October 2010 - 04:04 AM in Nerf Wars

Amendment: Seeing evidence of Taerkitty but not actually the cat himself.

I showed up at around 1:30 so we may have been ships passing in the night. I would have loved to see you dual-wielding cluster F-BBBBs.

The shear number and quality of your darts was ridiculous.



#286466 Effeminate Summer War Part 7

Posted by nisaburo on 02 October 2010 - 10:30 PM in Nerf Wars

Highlights

- Fryer's latest project start. Its very promising but I'm not sure he wants to announce what it is yet so I won't go into details.
- My RFSG performing admirably.
- Final War of the summer.


Lowlights

- arriving roughly 3 1/2 hours late.
- No Luke.
- No mod contest.
- Not winning civil war and a sweet over-hauled 3k.
- Final war of the summer.

Dayko! How about posting some of those pictures from this summer's wars? I'm getting requests as to what I do in this hobby.

Not sure, I'll ask him though.



#285428 Effeminate Summer War Part 7

Confirm me for this war! Just finished up something special, not too innovative but special.



#284665 Effeminate Summer War Part 7

I'll request it off tomorrow!

I think I can make that day work.



#284446 3 Sets Of Blastfire Tanks Not Working In Unison

Posted by nisaburo on 31 August 2010 - 06:47 PM in Modifications

You misunderstood the trigger advice. Each individual tank needs its own back-pressure trigger to function at full effect. So 3 sets of 5 tanks would mean 15 separate back-pressure triggers. People have gotten sets of 2 to work, off of one trigger but not that well. I might suggest using 3 of the original blast fire trigger mechanism and just push them in really fast for a shotgun effect.



#284086 Effeminate Summer War Part 6

Posted by nisaburo on 27 August 2010 - 01:51 AM in Nerf Wars

Since I missed the last one I really NEED to make this finale! The rest of September is not really going to work for me. Maybe I could make a weekday work but most of October is better for me, I just need a full 2 weeks notice. I prefer a Saturday as soon as possible, before school revs up too much.

I have a Fam reunion that day so I'm a no go.



#280459 Epic Summer War Part 5

Posted by nisaburo on 16 July 2010 - 11:30 PM in Nerf Wars

Confirmation on my schedule, I'll be there!



#280098 Epic Summer War Part 4

Posted by nisaburo on 12 July 2010 - 09:26 PM in Nerf Wars

I thought that someone in Dayko's camp took some pictures last time. It also might have been Tuna's significant other.



#279816 Epic Summer War Part 5

Posted by nisaburo on 09 July 2010 - 03:05 AM in Nerf Wars

I'm good with the mod contest starting at ENS V. Tantum, you will be greatly missed.



#279642 Epic Summer War Part 5

Posted by nisaburo on 06 July 2010 - 05:57 PM in Nerf Wars

I would be down for a group buy on some wyes. I just hope these don't become dominant in our games.



#279598 Epic Summer War Part 5

Posted by nisaburo on 06 July 2010 - 02:21 AM in Nerf Wars

Ok, gonna request THIS one off. I hope.



#279530 Battle Max Markerball Sceptor V1.0

Posted by nisaburo on 05 July 2010 - 04:55 AM in Modifications

Looks like I chose a bad time to post my "Mirage", this is really cool, and in terms of performance is a stronger, and smaller version of the mirage with a higher air capacity. Nice!

I was just wondering, how does the valve in this thing work? And what are the internals like?


The trigger valve in these is what has been described as a hammer or momentary valve. It uses a spring and a weight to quickly open and close a valve between the tank and barrel.



#279169 Battle Max Markerball Sceptor V1.0

Posted by nisaburo on 01 July 2010 - 02:05 PM in Modifications

Very nice, this is why I wanted to get this thing into the community. To instill fear in the hearts of all. I'll bring the pump handle to the next war.
