Sceptors are overrated. I got some shit done.

Super clean angel breached dongshot, it looks stock.

I modded my Zurg ball blaster that I got from Goodwill for $2. I upgraded the plunger tube to turret seal, closed the giant holes in the front of the plunger tube, and put on 6" barrels. I actually has a extension spring in it instead of a compression spring. The plunger tube is nearly the same size as a plusbow's and It has 3" of draw.

Posted Image

Super big holes in the front of the plunger tube.

Posted Image

Also my maxshot, same mods as zorns.

#317630 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by cheerios on 27 June 2012 - 10:06 PM in Homemades

I got some shit done recently.

Posted Image

Built this snap variant of the rainbowpup a couple days after Ryan made his. It shoots 90-95' with a less than optimal seal.

Posted Image

I upgraded my rainbowpump rev. 1 into a rev 2. It uses rubber grommets to make it dry fireable and uses a beaver omni directional catch.

Posted Image

I made this in an attempt to make a super short gun, It's as short as a maxshot.

Also for those who didn't see Louie being super butt hurt on Nrev, this is my entrance blaster for his bull-pup contest it is directly based off of his revshot carbine design.
It is nicknamed "Butt Hurt?"

Posted Image

It shoots 90' consistently.

#326288 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by cheerios on 03 February 2013 - 06:01 PM in Homemades

Finally the best shell ever is getting the TLC that it has always deserved. It is the most comfortable shell and it fits a 2.25" plunger tube perfectly with 5" of draw.

It shoots as far as Ryan's plusbow. Shoots through cardboard with slugs but not with AMIORS or silicone domes.

Zorn's FAL 2 became my FAL 2. The plunger tube exploded so I had to fix that and reinforce the priming handle.

#334038 Homemades Picture Thread

Posted by cheerios on 15 September 2013 - 07:06 PM in Homemades

I performed some maintenance on Zorn's FAL 2 this weekend. It didn't way too much work, just the usual fixes for FAL 2s.

  • Replace the plunger tube with opaque PVC (clear PVC cracks easily)
  • Fine tune the trigger. It actually catches now.
  • Re-attached the handle with epoxy putty instead of hot glue an zip ties
  • Filled unnecessary holes in the plunger tube and bushings.
  • Made a new spacer to attach the priming handle to the plunger tube. The original was 1/2" long and the new one is 2.5" long.

Pictured with the other blasters I've fixed that once belonged to Zorn.

I also finished up a new bullpup blaster that is a spring powered version of Kane's BullPACs; It is the same size and has a better name "BullShit".
Here it is with it's predecessor the "BullCrap"

#335155 Directory of Homemade Nerf Gun Build Guides

Posted by cheerios on 02 November 2013 - 09:29 PM in Homemades

Carbon has been pretty busy lately so I'm taking over the Directory for him. Please don't post in the thread. Here's the original directory thread by Carbon for posterity.

The Nerfhaven Homemade Directory is the repository of past completed projects of the Haven. Use it as a resource to see whats been accomplished before, to find new (or old) techniques, or to get inspiration for your next project. PM me if your homemade isn't in the directory or if certain links aren't working. PM Aeromech if your writeup doesn't appear here within a week of posting.

This post will be updated as new projects are added to the forum.

#319844 Mayhem - IL War!

Posted by cheerios on 03 August 2012 - 09:30 PM in Nerf Wars

Turns out I will be in Peoria that weekend. So I am an 80 percent maybe with no guests.



#320451 Mayhem - IL War!

Posted by cheerios on 14 August 2012 - 02:19 PM in Nerf Wars

Due to packing restrictions for the trip to Peoria that weekend I will likely have no darts or side arms, as it is I am already planning on making barrels in the hotel, If anyone has any of these I can borrow at the war I would be very thankful.



#302612 JSPB-The Mad Ghost

Posted by cheerios on 01 August 2011 - 12:18 AM in Homemades

Does this blaster have an over pressure valve?



#314416 Cataclysm 3 - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 15 April 2012 - 08:25 PM in Nerf Wars

I will be there.



#316134 Cataclysm 3 - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 25 May 2012 - 02:15 PM in Nerf Wars

Also, it's a good idea to bring your own lunch if you can. Closest place to eat isn't close.


Kane asked me to get food for people last weekend so I ordered two 3 foot long sandwiches from subway. I think they were one half ham and half turkey and the other is italian BMT.



#297177 Rainbowpump Writeup

Posted by cheerios on 15 April 2011 - 03:06 PM in Homemades

As always very nice Ryan, these things are really nice and everyone should make one of these.



#334020 new style RainbowPump Writeup

Posted by cheerios on 15 September 2013 - 08:54 AM in Homemades

It doesn't need a cheek-diddle sheath because nothing flies forward when you fire it.


It would protect your face against the priming sheath if it failed to catch and flew forward. It's just another safety precaution that I think all blasters should have.



#334016 new style RainbowPump Writeup

Posted by cheerios on 14 September 2013 - 09:11 PM in Homemades

While this design fixed many of the problems of the original RainbowPump, mainly being able to disassemble it easier than before. However it doesn't have the best feature of the original, a cheek-diddle sheath around the back.



#350261 PCSR: A new homemade design

Posted by cheerios on 29 December 2015 - 01:32 AM in Homemades

Yo you mad bro? My only point in that is that other people have stolen members' blasters in the past and that it's entirely possible for it to occur now. I don't get why you're so butt hurt about me making an extremely valid point.




#285522 4 Chan, Johnny

Posted by cheerios on 16 September 2010 - 04:41 PM in Nerf Wars

Anyone spray painting the back of their darts orange or yellow? I want to know what colors have been taken. If orange hasn't been taken I call dibs.

#260344 Cataclysm - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 01 January 2010 - 12:10 PM in Nerf Wars

Would a pump plugged Berserker be banned?, because without plugging it the blaster only gets 70-75 feet.



#260208 Cataclysm - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 30 December 2009 - 08:25 PM in Nerf Wars

Well I am a maybe as of now, never know whats going to come up. By the way is the name of the war a reference to the new expansion pack to World of Warcraft coming out soon?



#271911 Cataclysm - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 11 April 2010 - 09:54 AM in Nerf Wars

I'm a definite. One question though does anybody plan to sell stuff at the war?

Zorn I can take you to the train station I'm going to be leaving at lunch any ways, that way ambience327 doesn't have to drive you.



#260527 Cataclysm - Chicagoland War

Posted by cheerios on 02 January 2010 - 06:17 PM in Nerf Wars

Fixed my problem, just replaced the pump with one from the yellow and black BBBB.

Oops just now saw it said grove 18 in the place.



#331496 PANB 870

Posted by cheerios on 02 July 2013 - 08:21 PM in Homemades

I really want to believe that the range is 80-90 ft PTG, however:
1. Although ingenious, the sealing mech does not look like it seals perfectly/near perfectly
2. You have 3" draw with a 3/4" plunger tube. Blasters like the snap use 1 1/4" PT's with more draw and get just slightly higher ranges


He's using a 1 1/4" plunger tube not 3/4" or else his plunger head wouldn't fit. Also 3" of draw is more then adequate to fire 80' seeing as longshots of the specifications can shoot 95-100' flat.



#274033 Spano 2010

Posted by cheerios on 04 May 2010 - 08:32 PM in Nerf Wars

Any people going from the Chicago are willing to drive me *cough* Kane, Ryan *cough* I just wanna keep some possibilities open so if my ride cant take me I would still have a backup.



#273344 Spano 2010

Posted by cheerios on 25 April 2010 - 09:33 PM in Nerf Wars

I am a maybe. I have one question though how far away is the mall of America from the war location.
