#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.

There is a small yellow button like on the recon on the stock, I think the stock is removable.

I just downloaded it. However I am not on the list of "nerfhaven team members"
Will it take a while for my name to show up on the list? I am almost positive I have installed it correctly
Here is a picture-

Have I done this all correctly? It says it is running.. I am running on a Mac with Leopard.
Thanks.

#164535 The Vulcan: Internals And Mods! New Mods Pg.9!

Posted by jackster57 on 25 July 2008 - 08:11 PM in Modifications

It's a motorized longshot, minus the huge plunger and a fancier clip system in my eyes. I'll see what I can do with it. I'll really have to see where I can take it if I can't fix that rotator.


But 3/4ths of the reason the ls is so good is becase of its good range.
With out that 3/4ths or so , its like only 3/7ths as good as the ls.

You must have a bad one somehow. according to this (even its mega angled) His shot 40 with no mods. ***more head scratchin***



#164529 The Vulcan: Internals And Mods! New Mods Pg.9!

Posted by jackster57 on 25 July 2008 - 07:56 PM in Modifications

Every single post about the vulcan makes me want it less. First is 75 foot range. Then its 35 then its 20 with uber modding....

Very strange indeed. *scratches head*



#174493 Fall Dcno

Posted by jackster57 on 02 September 2008 - 02:28 PM in Nerf Wars

Well. My parents have decided I cant go out to this one. Considering it would be a 500 dollar trip for my family. I will try to get a war started in the North East area though. Awww darn.



#166709 Fall Dcno

Posted by jackster57 on 05 August 2008 - 06:55 AM in Nerf Wars

I am a maybe as of Now. If I go which is about a 35% chance I will fly to Rockville MD with my dad on a business trip on FRI
then go to the war on Sat. Then fly back with my dad on Sun. Its pretty cheap to fly from Maine to MD. Only 175 bucks round trip. As of now all of the dates look good, but I am going to need a definite date before I book my flight. Sounds fun.

Gimme A Date!
Grr.

#172622 Fall Dcno

Posted by jackster57 on 26 August 2008 - 05:11 PM in Nerf Wars

Thanks for the advice about small sized nerf wars. I am trying to book a flight as we speak. Its annoying though as you cant fly alone unless you are <15. I am trying to figure something out though. If I cant make this one , I will probably start a fall MASS war just because flights are a lot cheaper to Mass. then to Maine. Hopefully I can make it out to this one though. :D



#172364 Fall Dcno

Posted by jackster57 on 25 August 2008 - 03:40 PM in Nerf Wars

I thought more people would be interested. Heck, I mean the last one had 30 or so people right? I just dont know if I want to pay 175 bucks + hotel to fly out there from Maine for >25 people , When I could pay the same price to go to a 35+ participant event. Maybe a cheap flight will open up. Ill see if its worth my $ to come.



#173273 Fall Dcno

Posted by jackster57 on 28 August 2008 - 08:20 PM in Nerf Wars

Things are lookin' good for me. My parents say there is a good chance I could make it. Ill know by next Wed. I sure hope I can come. Cant Wait.

Thanks for Understanding.

Posted by jackster57 on 28 September 2008 - 05:38 PM in Nerf Wars

If anyone is driving through New Hampshire , Mass. , or Maine would they like to carpool and split the cost of Gas? I could meet you pretty much anywhere in those 3 states. If someone is in fact driving through those states I would love to carpool. PM me if you are.



#222707 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 09 April 2009 - 07:47 PM in Nerf Wars

MudFTW! I am bringing two pairs of sneakers and a pair of boots as well as a heavy and light rain coat. I am down. Plus it has been raining here and the fields are still in good condition. Does anyone have any cover to bring? Both rain cover and like bunkers.



#222709 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 09 April 2009 - 07:50 PM in Nerf Wars

Bring it. Cant hurt. Is there any shelter at this location? Like a gazebo or something similar? In case it starts to rain hard.



#221832 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 05 April 2009 - 04:43 PM in Nerf Wars

I found the location in his posts:

Here

Go ahead and bring the chimera. It's up to Thomas if you can use it or not, and even if you can't, it'll still be fun. I'd like to see your snap-o thing in person, too.

Thomas has already reserved all but 100 of my darts, so unless you reserve that last 100 now, you will need to bring your own darts.


I may need to buy 25 or 50, depending on how much my darts suck and how many I loose test firing into the MenWar park and shooting at trees....
What weight do you use? If its BB's how many?



#221526 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 04 April 2009 - 08:23 AM in Nerf Wars

Boots! Fun! I say keep this bitch on for the 11th. Lets maybe have another war soon at one of those other locations.

To Wes-
I need your moms/dads email/phone so my parents can talk to yours bout the ride. PM me.



#221740 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 05 April 2009 - 07:33 AM in Nerf Wars

Unplugged Chimeras are okay right?


Your going to use a titan? Wow. That is going to take a bagilloin pumps. Why not just use that snap thing-o of yours. I frankly would not like you to use that. It takes too many pumps and shoots too far. Just use something else(IMO) However my BigBlast is unplugged takes 7 pumps and shoots only about 120-130

It only takes 7 pumps... and gets only 120...


Whatever. Bring other stuff. Although I am not the organizer.

The 20th sadly not work for me. I leave to see family for two weeks in MN on the 21'st and that date is too close. I just posted a MaineNerf War thread. That war is in Maine and is on the 18th of July. I want each and everyone of you to come. This is our second time doing it and it is sure to be a great time.

Link to thread: http://nerfhaven.com...t=0#entry229958

Maybe a Mass. War on the 13th? The weekend before school gets out?



#223034 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 11 April 2009 - 06:23 PM in Nerf Wars

We should start a recap thread!

Pros:
Getting to screw around at a park near my house with Wes
Getting kicked out of said park by a Easter Bunny.

Cons:
No War.



#221221 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 02 April 2009 - 02:49 PM in Nerf Wars

If it is down in melrose I'll come on the 11th and might bring a few people.


It's Not.



#222949 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 11 April 2009 - 06:11 AM in Nerf Wars

Its off? Dammit. You guys sure we can't move it to another close by park? It says that it is only supposed to rain harder for bout a hour. Common guys! Lets do this.

Could that old baseball field work?



#222875 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 10 April 2009 - 07:21 PM in Nerf Wars

Looks like we will be getting a quater of an inch tomorrow. Not all that much.


Wonderful. THE WAR IS ON, FELLAS!


I am with you, lets do it tomorrow. Dress WARM. It is only going to be about 35 with wind chill. It will also be windy with gusts up to 20. Now its only a 30% chance of precip though.



#222846 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 10 April 2009 - 04:43 PM in Nerf Wars

**rioting mob** :angry: NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF! :angry: **rioting mob**

Just bring rain gear and we will be good. We can always move to a neary by location if need be as well, if it starts raining and they kick us.



#222827 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 10 April 2009 - 02:16 PM in Nerf Wars

I hate New England wars. Are we on or not?



#215908 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 02 March 2009 - 03:13 PM in Nerf Wars

I just found BBBB at target. Winsauce!

11? I was thinking 10 but 11 would work as well. We are still on regardless of snow right? We got bout 8 inches here.



#213224 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 18 February 2009 - 09:10 AM in Nerf Wars

I've already said this on FU, but I think it would be a cool idea for everybody to bring both a red and blue shirt, for team identification. Think we could pull it off?


Pick me. I can doit.



#213237 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 18 February 2009 - 11:19 AM in Nerf Wars

Or we could all finger paint eachothers chests with red or blue warpaint... :rolleyes:


Just kidding, this is turning out to be a pretty large war!



#211858 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 12 February 2009 - 08:28 PM in Nerf Wars

#210557 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 08 February 2009 - 06:08 PM in Nerf Wars

I have to pull my lazy ass together and remake my primary, I will talk to wes bout a ride, but maybe I could just get one myself. I want to come, I just don't know if I can. Can we decide on a date?

Also I will be selling stefans for 100 for $5. They are made of swift nerfs white foam.

JUST KIDDING. No really, Wes makes T3h UBERST3FANZZ!!!!111

#206729 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 26 January 2009 - 08:31 PM in Nerf Wars

#215142 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 26 February 2009 - 03:56 PM in Nerf Wars

I have to get a freaking primary. I am still being too picky on what I want.



#215938 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 02 March 2009 - 04:47 PM in Nerf Wars

#218748 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 19 March 2009 - 05:53 AM in Nerf Wars

Fine 11th. My attendance is pending.



#219969 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 26 March 2009 - 05:33 PM in Nerf Wars

Melrose? I have never heard of such place. Please elaborate. So are we not on for the 11th?



#218659 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 18 March 2009 - 05:48 PM in Nerf Wars

GRRR. Lets go with the 12th then. Does that work for everyone?



#218318 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 16 March 2009 - 06:51 PM in Nerf Wars

Is it at all possible that we could move it back to the 18th? I could probably make it either way, but I have a lacrosse tryout that I don't really want to miss it.



#216963 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 08 March 2009 - 05:35 PM in Nerf Wars

What's The Dealeo Yo!?!!?

But is this thing still on or is it postponed?



#221097 New England

Posted by jackster57 on 01 April 2009 - 05:31 PM in Nerf Wars
