#159426 "nitefinder Rifle"

Posted by jackster57 on 16 June 2008 - 08:04 PM in Modifications

What kind of screw did you use? Also, I am using one NF plunger rod and one ss1 plunger rod so I cant join 2 nf tubes together.



#159413 "nitefinder Rifle"

Posted by jackster57 on 16 June 2008 - 07:27 PM in Modifications

I decided to make a "Nite Finder Rifle " sort of mod for my nite finder and I have a few questions that you guys can help me answer.

1st Q. What type of glue is best for attaching the 2 plunger rods together? I used "Plastic Weld ® " and some goop but I dont think its gonna hold. Also , is the something else besides glue that helps secure the plunger rods together?

2nd Q. What kind of material is the plunger case made of? I know some people have used PETG but what size PETG makes a good seal on the nite finder plunger head? If some one could either tell me the size and where to buy it or just give me the McMaster item # , or (best option) if you could sell me a foot or so of the stuff, that would be great.

Thanks for the help.

#218096 +bow Color Scheme

Posted by jackster57 on 15 March 2009 - 05:50 PM in Homemades

Do the yellow theme, but make it a more not-goldish POP in your face yellow. Then paint the radioactive symbol with a yellow base coat and red splatter paint.

Just FYI good grammar is a must to help you have a healthy, happy and long stay here at the haven. Also concept threads like these are looked down upon. May I suggest that you read the Code of Conduct before you make your next post.
Love,

#185179 750 Pumps.

5 I believe. I used to give mine that before it exploded. Just Kidding. I sold it to MSDFS.
I WOULD NOT DO MORE THAN 6! But hell, my friend gives his at2k 8 and its fine...

#185461 A2 Quickload Power Blaster

Posted by jackster57 on 25 October 2008 - 06:33 AM in General Nerf

Not Really Sure. Sorry übermench

Mav is to FireFly as PhotonBurstPowerBlaster is to A2 Quickload Power blaster.
Made by the same people. Look the same. Have the same darts. Have the same clip. Have the same design.
Have the same NAME almost.
I would assume it's a springer like the PhotonBurst

WES? NOW YOU ARE ONE OF THEM!??! THOMAS MUST HAVE BRAINWASHED YOU TOO.

WHO CAN I TRUST?????!!!!!!!!!!

But Seriously, it sucks that I missed this one.

Is it POURING rain there like it is here? Are you massholes going to pussy out on us?



#237975 Attn Boston/ma People

Posted by jackster57 on 22 June 2009 - 10:59 AM in Nerf Wars

I've got nothing going on the 25th, so I'll probably make it. Any possibility of a car pool, Jack?

Yes. Do you want to drive or should I?



#243545 Attn Boston/ma People

Posted by jackster57 on 24 July 2009 - 11:20 AM in Nerf Wars

Jack, PM me for car ride details.

I might be able to pick up another jumbo pack of Poland Spring like I did for deal. I can share that with everyone.

I'd also bring both pairs of shorts and pants, because of the fucked up New England weather. Is there any place to make a quick change, or something?


I am still a maybe. My situation is complicated, and my attendance depends on my cousins who are in MN right now winning a baseball game. The game is played tonight, so I will be super last minute if I can go. If they win, I can go to the war. If not, then they do not move on the to next round of the playoff's and come and visit us in maine, preventing me from going to the war. Wes, PM me a home phone # so that I can call you later tonight explaining my situation after the baseball game is over. Is 10.00 or 10.30 too late to call? Thanks.

Ok so can send this out to the group of people that went to the SSGC Game which was around 46 folks. It should be fine as long as we don't harrass the other folks down there.

I was planing on running a game down here but I just haven't posted anything yet. I say shoot for the 11th or 18th.

I am busy on the 18th and if you actully read the other war threads around you would know that MenWar2 is on that date. How about a different date.



#237603 Attn Boston/ma People

Posted by jackster57 on 20 June 2009 - 08:34 AM in Nerf Wars

Yeah, I would be there, but if you would like to travel a bit farther up to maine we could probably get a bigger war. Right not in Maine we are having a 13+ participant war.

To bad you will cancel at the last minute.

Also, I can't come. Family in town.

Jesus loves us. The precip. chance has dropped down to 30%.

Should be a blast, and I look forward to meeting some new nerfers. Too bad Thomas won't be coming, because he'll have some tragic accident on Friday. Us Mainers have started to doubt your existence.


If he comes, TAKE PIX!!!!!!

Skye can confirm that I exist, as well as Guinea from FU.
My brother's mental breakdown I think would be an alright excuse for not attending the first war, as well as the terrible chain of weather we had for the other.
The war that was the 11th, as I said, I could not make. Blame my dad, not me.



That's and awfully convincing post. FOR A ROBOT! :(



#243285 Attn Boston/ma People

Posted by jackster57 on 23 July 2009 - 09:50 AM in Nerf Wars

I am now a maybe. My visitors that were going to be in town might have canceled their trip. Hey wes, any chance of a last minute carpool if I can in fact go. I will know the final verdict on Friday afternoon. I will post then ASAP my attencence.

#153364 Big Blast Modification

Posted by jackster57 on 27 April 2008 - 06:31 AM in Modifications

I would recommend Reinforcing the trigger. If you dont and you pump it more then 15 times even though the tank can hold 35 the trigger starts to break. Mine broke. So now i have a bb with no trigger. :huh:

#235951 Brass Breech Problem

Posted by jackster57 on 13 June 2009 - 07:58 AM in Modifications

I am not sure about you, but all of my brass comes with little stickers telling the size of the pipe. After I take off those stickers I have to be sure to completely sand off all of the residue or the brass has trouble sliding. Try that.



#189861 Brass Vs Petg?

Posted by jackster57 on 15 November 2008 - 05:09 PM in Modifications

I also go to ray and robins in Falmouth. I need to use the 17/32nds brass with my new darts (the smaller ones at MenWar)
Brass is good. PETG is good. Depends of what your darts fit into.



#236685 Burst Fire Barrel System.

Posted by jackster57 on 16 June 2009 - 05:28 AM in Modifications

Cool. Maybe try a slightly longer actual "barrel" part. I have a 6 shot RSCB that Wes made for me on an at3k and when wes gives me my 4B back I might try it on that too. Is that a new X-Bow or the one that broke earlier?



#185386 C.q.b.

Posted by jackster57 on 24 October 2008 - 07:56 PM in General Nerf

A pair of SMDTG's and a Mav.
But where we play CQB is in my basement with a ton of boxes stacked up so you don't need much..

http://www.instructables.com/id/%24100-Sup...der-%2410!/

Try that. I did it to one of the Eveready's they sell in the check out lane at home depot. I have had it for about 7 months now and it works really good.

Just my suggestion



#189554 Catch Fire Replacement Balls

Posted by jackster57 on 13 November 2008 - 07:20 PM in General Nerf

They won't? :o
Is there any type of replacement balls for the catch/trigger fire?



#189550 Catch Fire Replacement Balls

Posted by jackster57 on 13 November 2008 - 07:11 PM in General Nerf

Hello. I am thinking of buying a Zoom-O catch fire ball gun. As seen at Target.com http://www.target.co.....h fire&page=1

However I am unsure of if nerf "ballistic" balls will fit and fire well in this gun. This is huge factor over wether I buy the gun or not and I would like to now.
Someone please give me a answer.
Thanks.

Wow. You turned a Vulcan into a alligator.... :cry: Even though I dislike you for lying about things and showboating your "precious" Vulcan thats actually a pretty cool idea, so props for thats. :huh:

Hell, cars used to be sold for $150 so lets just sell new cars for that same price. Its madness I tell you!

Do you know where you can get the spring from? I don't really want to tear apart my screen door for one.

At Home Depot They sell screen door springs for about 4$ i think. Thats for just the spring and none of the fixtures.

#156484 Dart Sizes

Posted by jackster57 on 21 May 2008 - 02:06 PM in General Nerf

I'm just curious as to what you use. I've heard that the East Coast sticks to megas, but I'm not sure.

Not sure where you heard that. We all use Micros.
Megas are marginally popular on the West Coast, but from what I've heard Micros are still primarily used.




Think he probably heard it hear Falcon's Dart Index

But I am not sure...

And to answer your question I stick to micros. Get it??? :lol: Some micros have the little sticky rubber pad that sticks to your TV or windows..... :P

And yes, I do know how lame of a pun that was...

#184198 Dartsmithing Tips Archive

Posted by jackster57 on 16 October 2008 - 07:37 PM in Darts and Barrels

I've been doing some experimenting around with stefans, and found that craft glue makes a very strong bond if you make darts slug style. The advantage of course it that it doesn't melt the foam and is arguably as strong a bond as hot glue. The disadvantage is that it takes over a day to entirely dry. Ill be doing some "which one is better" type experimenting soon if any one even cares...

-Wes


Really? I have been using hot glue so far. The hot glue has worked good but sometimes runs over the edge and makes unwanted friction. Liquid Nails FAILED for me. I had LN all over myself and they had a horrible lifespan. I am interested to see how craft glue works. How have mine been holding up for you? Oh and by the way I found out some good Russian Quotes for next MENWAR.
