#220243 Your Worst Nerf Related Injury

Posted by jackster57 on 28 March 2009 - 08:28 AM in General Nerf

War: shot in the back of the head from 2 feet away with a singled at2k

modding: getting cut with just about the sharpest kitchen knife in the world. had to get stitches and the scar is still puffy. (but it's not infected).


The pump wasn't plugged and that was from 20+ feet. Nice sense of direction Mr.Sm1500 Snap.
Ps. Check out my new sig.

********

My worst injury was either when I was hit in the neck by a 2k at a war, or when I was dremeling and cut my fingernail in half with a diamond cutting disk.



#166377 Would This Work?

Posted by jackster57 on 04 August 2008 - 07:54 AM in Modifications

Yep. I tried it. It works but not as well as the LS. Also you are gonna have to dremel the Squash out of both sides of the bolt and the receiver part. I can now shoot Taggers pretty consistently , but I still have trouble with Micros.

#154191 Wierd At2k Problem

Posted by jackster57 on 01 May 2008 - 08:31 PM in General Nerf

So your saying basicly just cover the whole air tank and orange thing with goop?



#154226 Wierd At2k Problem

Posted by jackster57 on 02 May 2008 - 06:09 AM in General Nerf

No, don't just go in blindly and start gluing everything. I made this mistake once, and I'll never do it again. It ruined my Magstrike. Put soapy water over the general area of where you think the leak is, then pump up the gun. Wherever bubbles start forming is where your leak is at. Wash the thing off, and put Plumbers Goop over that area. Wait 24-48 hours and it should be good.

Before I do this I should remove all the old hot glue right? Also does this problem definetly sound like a bad goo tank and not a bad pump plug?
I just want to make sure before i go buy plumbers goop.



#154181 Wierd At2k Problem

Posted by jackster57 on 01 May 2008 - 07:54 PM in General Nerf

I just modded my at2k but when i pump it air seems to be leaking out where the plastic goo holding part of the good gauge meets the orange part of the goo gauge. To fix this problem i first tried unscrewing the orange goo gauge part then when i put it back together the problem was still there. Then lining the area with hot glue where the leak was happing. But still no fixo. When i pump it i can fully hear the air leaking out and after about 7 seconds after if pump it there is no air left at all.
I know im kinda a Knewblet but this is about my 5th mod. Can any one help me out?

Do you have a similar building log for the other eclectic scooter that you built? Nice work as always.



#185748 What Costume Are You People Wearing For Halloween?

Posted by jackster57 on 26 October 2008 - 08:14 PM in Off Topic

Just went to my main party last night. I went as a zombie. Scared the heck out of most of the girls there. I made this using liquid latex , nose wax , spirit gum , toilet paper , green and white cream makeup and a basic makeup kit. I really liked how it turned out. It cost less than 30 bucks. Here are some pictures. Also I agree with slug. Who goes trick or treating? Parties are where it's at. This is non-reusable so I will not be doing this again.

I used to live in Redmond until last year when I moved. I went to Horace Mann school. Sadly, now I live in Maine.



#158204 Vulcan Firing Video Found!

Posted by jackster57 on 06 June 2008 - 05:36 AM in General Nerf

This is the range of the Vulcan STOCK! We're all saying it's crap. Pump shotguns have crappy stock range, and look what FA24 did to his.


Although you are right about pieces of crap being turned into usable war weapons. I just don't think there is that much we are going to be able to do. I mean look. AR removal = +15 feet or so. Battery supercharge = + 10 to 15 . If it works the way we think with the airsoft like gear and plunger system then it is going to be really hard to suck 45 feet out of this puppy.

Lets hope someone has better ideas then I do.



#158202 Vulcan Firing Video Found!

Posted by jackster57 on 06 June 2008 - 05:11 AM in General Nerf

Wow. Just Wow. I hope thats a really early prototype.....
If its really that bad all of are 6 months of speculation.... RUINED! :angry:

It better be better :)

#185907 Trifinder

Posted by jackster57 on 27 October 2008 - 06:57 PM in Modifications

I really like it. What type of scrap plastic are you using? Polycarbonate? What? Overall I really like it. Maybe do a combination of oodalumps plunger draw mod and this. I think we should be able to get 60' out of this thing. Nice job.
Nerfer9 - You are an overposting idiot. After this amazing mod and you stupidity ask what the knex are for.. If you looked you would have noticed that they are super noticeably ram rods and a holder. Use your freaking head. Please.

EDIT- Explaining Nerfer9's idiotness.



#179908 Tri-barrel Secret Shot 1

Posted by jackster57 on 27 September 2008 - 07:44 AM in Modifications

Very Nice. Mine was an Effeminate fail , but I think the straw will help when I get a new one. This is great. And also to those who asked this gun is VERY comfy in your hand. I would say better than a NF.



#251754 Tommy 20, Good Buy?

Posted by jackster57 on 26 September 2009 - 06:59 PM in General Nerf

It's probably the best gun. It it really good for snîping and gets like 120 feet stock out of the box, on full auto.



#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*



#241407 The Trojan Horse

:P Nice clinch modding. See you in a few hours.



#222345 The Struck Bow

Posted by jackster57 on 08 April 2009 - 05:52 AM in Homemades

Hmm. Your Ls was better. Just kidding! This thing is really good. I have been meaning to do this to my BBBB but I haven't had the time or the parts. I am glad to be able to see this at the war this saturday.



#222696 The Skank!

Posted by jackster57 on 09 April 2009 - 06:49 PM in Modifications

This is sweet! I was thinking about doing something like this with my Losi Desert Truck. Maybe I will try it out. Nerf Robot wars FTW!!



#212697 The Majority Hammer

Posted by jackster57 on 16 February 2009 - 08:10 AM in Site Feedback

No. Rating systems on other websites have failed. People would just rate someone down and down just to be "funny" to try to get them banned. It would not work and a lot of people would get banned that shouldn't. I would suggest just letting the admins do their jobs. I have not seen anyone who should be banned that the admins did not take care of. We don't need the entire NIC backseat moderating.



#264652 The Lab, By Split

Posted by jackster57 on 07 February 2010 - 08:38 PM in Homemades

Wait, so in its current form, it is without a handle. So it is more of a customizable add on than a Primary in its current form?



#206442 The Handy Pistol

Posted by jackster57 on 25 January 2009 - 09:07 PM in Modifications

Sweet. I like it. Cleaness is sexy. Was this from the Camo Longshot that was at Menwar?



#193367 The Exhaustive Guide To Crossbows NOW ON NH

Wow. Great Job. Pretty Much Covers any questions someone could have about a crossbow.



#164362 The Dark Knight

Posted by jackster57 on 25 July 2008 - 06:33 AM in Off Topic

I just saw it yesterday. I thought over all it was 4/5 stars. (Judged by a teenage boy)
I loved all the things that you can quote out of it. My personal favorite quote has to be quote "Why so serious son" end quote
I thought batman never used guns though. In THE DARK KNIGHT he had multiple instances of using guns.

Over all it is a must see.



#163824 The Dangerous Book For Boys

Posted by jackster57 on 23 July 2008 - 06:14 AM in Off Topic

I second that statement. I built the go kart out of that book , along with many other projects. I would recommend it to all.

#176157 Summer Battle Of The Pines

Posted by jackster57 on 09 September 2008 - 02:20 PM in Nerf Wars

Posted by jackster57 on 09 September 2008 - 02:05 PM in Nerf Wars

Is this gonna happen? If so, is it this coming up weekend? Same park I am assuming. Could someone please update the first post with correct info and the people who are coming. If it is on this weekend on Saturday at the same park then I can go. But can someone please get me some correct info?



#255827 Stiff Ball Valve?

Posted by jackster57 on 09 November 2009 - 09:03 PM in Homemades

I have had a few like this. Running and submerging them in hot water while opening and closing them seems to do the trick.



#211856 Ssgc Nerf Game

Posted by jackster57 on 12 February 2009 - 08:26 PM in Nerf Wars

I can go and give wes a ride if it is on March 28th, a Sat. But I can NOT come on the 29th, a Sunday.

But I am open to returning Wes's favor and driving to any available mass war.



#211772 Ssgc Nerf Game

Posted by jackster57 on 12 February 2009 - 03:41 PM in Nerf Wars

I'm a maybe. My parents will most likely make me choose between this war and the one on the 14 of march. If they do, I'm going to have to choose the other war.


I think I am the same story, unless maybe you could give me a ride for the 14th in an exchange for a ride to this one..
But I am not sure yet.

What Happened?



#253224 Ssgc Fall Nerf Game

Posted by jackster57 on 11 October 2009 - 07:29 AM in Nerf Wars

I had a great time as well. Pretty much everything went down smootly, and the cardboard battle field was something new, but very fun. Look forward to seeing all of you sometime in the future.



#253082 Ssgc Fall Nerf Game

Posted by jackster57 on 09 October 2009 - 08:34 PM in Nerf Wars

It's raining, and it's assumed that it will continue through tomorrow, will we be playing inside?

I think it is going to stop about the time the war starts though, judging from the hour by hour forecast. I would like to play outside, but just don't cancel it.
