#248925 Guide To Barrel Material
Posted by wohnson89 on 28 August 2009 - 05:24 PM in Modifications
Ok i took the advice i got from cannotaim and went to ace hardware to get 17/32 size brass pipe and guess what they didn't have it. So i thought ok I'll try Lowes or Home Depot. They didn't have it either! So now where do i go? websites? lumber yards? hardware stores? other stores?
Did you ask anyone at Ace whether or not they had brass? They usually have it in a little display near the nuts and screws and stuff like that. You won't find it at Home Depot or Lowes.
As for finding it online, I've seen it for sale on Amazon. It's such a well known website that you might be able to convince what/who ever isn't letting you order stuff online.
Yes i did ask at ace but the lady was stupid and said i quote "i like dont really know?" So im not sure. And do you mean like right around the pvc by the nuts and bolts or in a different area than that?

#284174 Community Snap Thread
Posted by wohnson89 on 28 August 2010 - 12:14 AM in Homemades
I just put somewhat of a Snap directory into the first post; that is I C&P'd the homemade directory, deleting anything not Snap related, and changing the color of the member names from red to yellow. Later I'll get to doing some searching and putting in some newer things that Carbon hasn't gotten to yet.
I don't mean to be a complainer but I never liked the homemade directory. I don't care who made the gun I just want to know how it works. So maybe the directory here could organize the info by categories like one for the trigger, plunger head, pullback system. And if the gun is nothing new just have it under a section named simple gun variations or something..... its just a suggestion.
If you're worried about looks, how about shelling the SNAP in something else? For example, an Expand-a-Blast? This one is only using 1" thinwall, hence the bit of 1-1/4" to support the clothespin.
My one-after-next will likely go in an LBB shell. I like my LBB skeletonized, and, after I added a lever trigger to it, it won't go back in the shell anyhow.
Well its not the look of the gun that bothers me its just the trigger. I am most likely going to do Fome's trigger for this gun, accept I thought I might just attach it with wood glue instead of hot glue.
My method is actually really simple.
I see says the blind man.
And my last thought is for the love of God don't put duct tape on your guns!

Also something that might benefit this thread would be if Carbon could post on the first page all of the links to SNAP related things, i.e. Plunger heads, trigger designs, plunger rod variances, and stocks.

I really hope that was sarcasm.This is definitely better than the lancer.
If it is not sarcasm, my friend you need to get your brain checked out, because the lancer is awesome.
Oh and kid, remember, carbord bends and dosn't work well when wet. So please don't cry when i tell you this, it looks like crap.

That also might be unfair. In my book, all energy used for firing a dart needs to be stored by a human and needs to happen during the round.
But thanks for the kind words
Spoken by a true visionary.
That makes total sense to me.

#256268 Nite Finder Dual External Sprigs
Posted by wohnson89 on 14 November 2009 - 03:30 PM in Modifications
I've never liked the appearance of external bungees or banding. Sure, it adds power and all, but I think they make the gun less comfortable and harder to holster/unholster. Therefore, this idea is awesome and the perfect alternative for those people like me that don't want to externally band. Great concept.
Ya before i did this i had like 3 zillion rubber bands on it. it just didn't look good.
#256260 Nite Finder Dual External Sprigs
Posted by wohnson89 on 14 November 2009 - 01:52 PM in Modifications
It looks cool, and seems easy enough to do, but why not just band/bungie cord the gun?
i do this because it just seams more stable and it looks better. and there is nothing wrong with banding/bungie cording the gun
#256253 Nite Finder Dual External Sprigs
Posted by wohnson89 on 14 November 2009 - 01:16 PM in Modifications
on a scale from one to ten on difficulty this is like a point five in my opinion.
i started off by taking the gun apart and sanding down that little piece under the plunger handle.
then you shave the inside screw holes down some so the tension spring will fit in place when the the screws are screwed on.
now place a screw and a lock nut on the other end of the two springs.
To reinforce the plunger you put a washer at the end of the plunger head.
finished gun should look like this:
painted
ranges are
about 50-60 ft
video
I don't know whats up with the sound in the video.
Its kinda crappy quality cause i filmed it on my cell phone because I lost my camera.
#256298 Nite Finder Dual External Sprigs
Posted by wohnson89 on 14 November 2009 - 09:30 PM in Modifications
or is it a theory??? i have other nite finders that got the same ranges and then i put a brass barrel on it and it got just under 90ft but it was a arched shotOH SHIT! This doesn't have a barrel replacement! That's like 20-30 more feet! This means that most of mine could, in theory, hit 90ft.
#256289 Nite Finder Dual External Sprigs
Posted by wohnson89 on 14 November 2009 - 08:33 PM in Modifications
Good job thinking of something original (I've never seen it at least). Is there any chance that bolt would slam into the back or your thumb when you shoot, though?
I'm pretty sure that they don't, i did this to another gun + i added a big spring inside and i gave myself blood blister under my fingernail.(but with that shot i did get about 90-100 ft this thing had recoil) it busted the internals to crap. so i desisted to just do the external springs and i got good results.
I like the idea, makes it look much cleaner. Those springs don't look very strong though, how much power do they add?
They add quite a bit, as i said the ranges are in the 50-60ft range so thats a little farther than the 20-30 i was getting with just the AR's removed.

ya i forgot to add the part where it glues to the clip casingHonestly I think that it looks easy to break. But I've never seen a mod like this in my life. I didn't think it was possible!
#245879 Magstrike As-10 Clip And Pump Mod
Posted by wohnson89 on 06 August 2009 - 09:13 PM in Modifications
How sturdy is it? I like the idea of just moving the pump so you can have an uber mag l.oaded
its very sturdy as long as you use the high temp glue gun not the low temp one
Are you left handed?
nope it just works better on that side and i dont mind it
#245790 Magstrike As-10 Clip And Pump Mod
Posted by wohnson89 on 06 August 2009 - 01:07 PM in Modifications
This is what the finished gun looks like
before paint
after paint
[img]http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/4933/dsc02979y.jpg[img]
photo quality is kinda crappy now but you get the picture
Materials:
high temp hot glue gun.(low temp does not work well)
dremel
hack saw
needle nosed pliers
at least 7" of one inch pvc
Start off by taking out all the screws and removing the top cover. Now the gun is open.
oh and p.s. take a flat screw driver to pry off that green peice at the end.
[img]http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/6521/dsc01945fu0.jpg[/img]
(this is not my picture, i just found it on google image search)
Next we are going to move the the pump over
Move the pump out of the way as not to cut it. Cut it with a dremel or a hack saw and make sure to cut where it says in the picture. Set this peice aside for later.
[img]http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/1384/63314354.gif[/img][/img][img]
Now cut a peice of one inch pvc to form the new pump. It will need to about 7 inches long.
The next part can be put on either the right or left side. I put mine on the right as to provide easy disasembly and access to the internals.
Dremel the peice of plastic around the the back of the pump casing so the new pump can move over.
[img]http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/2636/15102221.jpg[/img]
Next remove the the cap at the end of the pump
[img]http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/558/58263756.jpg[/img]
It should come off very easily.
Slide the 1" pvc over the pump and hot glue it, as you see in the picture before the last.
Put the inner end cap back on and cut the end peice off of the original pump casing. Cut where it says in the picture.
[img]http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/5310/0065356916740500x500.jpg[/img]
Now we can move on to the clip.
There are two options for the next step.
1)keep reading mine which goes into less detail
2)folow the link to captian slugs clip modification here- http://nerfhaven.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7433
Ok the next thing is kinda tricky, so the holes are at 45 degree angle to each other and cut exactly how i cut in the pictures.
[img]http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/5546/75139652.jpg[/img]
[img]http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/5488/48025909.jpg[/img]
[img]http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/1144/90970419.jpg[/img]
[img]http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/9908/49368860.jpg[/img]
Take your needle nosed pliers and twist out the air restrictors.
Ok now that we have that out of the way time to do the easiest part, take your dremel and sand down the little green knob at the end of the air blader.
[img]http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/8338/76941991.jpg[/img]
Now re-asemble the whole gun and now we are finished with all the internal stuff.
p.s. it will be tricky cause of the the way the new pumps angle.
Now for the external stuff my speciality!!
Cut the old pump casing in these places:
[img]http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/3930/51380284.jpg[/img]
I forgot to take pictures of this next part, but I'll try to explain them in as much detail as i can.
Turn over the first section where it says magstrike and sand down all the ribs so it will fit around the pvc pipe.
use a genorious amount of hot glue to attach it. hold tight for about 1 min. then atach the next side the same way. Next we will attach the bulky part at the end with more hot glue. it may take a little dremeling to get it to fit.
Now we are all done.
I will try to have a video of it firing soon but i have to fix a leek in the tubes.(unrelated to the moddifing. It was a three year old gun its bound to have leaks.)

This is sick. I will be attempting it in the morning, as well as the pvc bladder I saw not so long ago. Thinking about total pump relocation though...
i was thinking of doing that myself but this worked better.

Also, don't get to far in-front of your modding level. I tried that when I first started and ruined lots of guns, and from the looks of this,
The way I plan on putting the dart into the shell i shoved into the lonshot barrel tube -forgot to mention earlier it's from the front gun's extention for the main gun[/code]
You're still using stock barrels so you must not have grasped the concept of PETG, Brass, or even CPVC. I wish you the best of luck with this, but don't try to be an overachiever, start out simple.

Just a note. I don't want everyone to post a thread for the kind of paint job you want. But it is a pretty cool idea and a good tool for planning things out so I'll let this one go. Lets just not make it a habit.
Ok i will sent the pictures to cheesypiza001 instead of making a new thread for each one.

#2.
I saved the image and tried to edit it in both GIMP and MSPAINT, but all of the colors I paint with come out black and white/gray.
I tried GIMP, too, and got the same results.
huh....I wonder why that is happening?
Well I will try to fix it soon.
