Hey people,
Has anyone ever used a Rockwell RK7321 BladeRunner for homemade nerf applications. I would like to use it for making straight cuts and
barrel spacers. Any input is appreciated

If we are going to move the date can we set it to the 16th?

I just checked the weather and it looks like it'll be clear tomorrow till next week. So if you guys still want to have a war I don't mind meeting up still with host or no host.

I am not the host but I feel that slingshots are way too heavy to be used safely even with felt pad. With those weight you can go pass the 110' mark out of most if not all of the 100' hitting primaries.

I just want to make sure is the war still going to be the 26th? If so I'll be there and possibly with 1-2 guests.

On a side note I'll be bringing panthers and longshots for trade. I am looking for a pumpsnaps, berserkers, and settlers of catan.

I start school on the 22nd, so depending on how my first week goes, I may or may not show up. If i do show up, this will be my first war!

Also, if anybody lives relatively near Palo Alto and can give me a ride, please PM me.

EDIT: Does anyone use slugs with white foam and green felt? I need to know if I should mark mine.

Yes I am using white foam with green and black felt.

#315131 Calibrating Oversized Dart Diameter to Barrel ID

Posted by b1g13en on 03 May 2012 - 01:02 AM in Darts and Barrels

I tried heating some cpvc barrel material with a common coffee warmer instead of metal on a cooktop. I had some (19!) barrels cut to 2 1/2" for an absolver. There's a rubber band holding them together. The warmer is not a particularly powerful one. I tried mine on high and it deformed a few barrels so I would stick to low at first. In usage I found it best to load it with darts (to about 1/4" of the bottom) and then place it on the warmer for 15 - 20 minutes (longer for stock darts). It's hard to gauge but my darts melted a bit at the bottom when they were done. A little less gets a tighter dart but over 25 minutes started to deform the surface of the foam.

Have you tried putting the cpvc with blanks in them and heating it in the dryer?

Where in Solano County are you planning to do the war? If it's further south I'll be in. I live in the bay area

Hey guys, I've always heard if the foam is too tight for your barrel stretching would help. But if you do stretch it wouldn't it gradually pop itself back to its original dimensions? Or when expose to summer heat wouldn't it get fatter again? What does stretching the foam actually do to the foam?

Just wondering would you recommend covering all three sides or just one side is enough?

What's keeping the air from leaking where the trigger is?

So you use the orange rubber tube to push the check valve right? Wouldn't it jam the check valve?

#302144 How to make better Slug darts

Posted by b1g13en on 24 July 2011 - 01:25 AM in Darts and Barrels

Are all the 4 colors from mcmaster the same in quality or certain colors are better?

This game is like a real time RISK. I think maybe should color the tips of the blank end of the sticks so it's easier to flip the appropriate one. On the other hand having players to search for the correct stick makes things harder and maybe better for the game itself.

For the trigger setup is the screw supposed to be screwed into the check valve? What length screw are you guys using for the triggers ( if it helps I am planning to use the pvcT setup) or it doesn't really matter? Also any tips on hole to drill into the center of the tee?
