What are ranges? Somebody has to ask.
Just guesstimating here but I would suspect it to be around 60 feet? Also, do you have have any plans for reinforcing the plunger tube due to the fact that Recon's PTs seem to be prone to breaking

Then again, I have a few other pretty worthless blasters I've bought recently to mod, so apparently I'm an easy target for these guys Still fun to try at least once, though.

Yeah I know I cut it like that because I wanted to get this update up quickly and didn't realize that it was so step until I triend using it.
You have now finished.
That's a pretty intense angle you've got there, do the darts feed well? I think its too steep.

Have you tested this yet? It seems like the dart would get snagged on the Tee, where it goes from the 45 to a 90 degree angle.
This wye work extremely well although I don't understand why people ask me this question when they probably have the materials to go and make one. ( Not flaming you cheyner it's just that most people have the materials to go and make one.)
Yes most people do have the materials to make a wye. I ask because you say nothing about making the the actual 90 degree angle of the tee into a 45 degree angle. You cut off the top coupler, then glued on another coupler cut at a 45 degree angle. That means there would be a lip that is on a 90 degree angle right at the end of the 45. So, are your darts bending even more to get around this? Or did you sand it out so there is no lip?

I made one of these like a week and a half ago. Did you sand out the insides of the hole so the darts will feed?
It's more about how long your darts are. Obviously streamlines are too long for a normal Wye, so I would think cutting the PVC at a lower angle would allow for longer darts. I haven't tested this though, so I could easily be wrong.

I believe that the standard angle for a pvc wye is usually 45 degrees, but I think that I've heard somewhere that it is not the optimal angle.
