In Topic: A new dimension of stefans

First, proclaiming a new size without mentioning the source material for your darts isn't that helpful. I know McMaster sells 7/8" foam backer rod, but if you found a local source, that would be especially helpful for anyone interested in these.


I personally got my foam at Home depot, but the foam brand they sell in Canada is different than what is in the U.S.

Second, saying you used a 5/8" fender washer does not state the actual product. I assume you mean the outside diameter of the washer is 5/8", and it's probably a normal flat washer (fender washers have really high OD/ID ratios). Most likely, you're using 1/4 SAE flat washers. Definitely a common size, but still necessary info.


Sorry, my local Home depot just has a bin that you pick out of but you're probably right.

Lastly, many hardware stores have aluminum or steel tubing sized at 1" OD, ~7/8" ID. Some also have copper tubing repair couplings for 3/4" tubing that also have the same dimensions.


Thank you for the aluminum tubing idea but my question is how do you cut it? I'm used to cutting plastics so cutting metals is new to me.

Because what if you can't find a barre?; Then your fucked.

I thought about this before I but my blanks so I only cut two. If I don't find a barrel material I'm sure the foam will make good plunger head padding.

Singling a maverick is like making a pumpsnap with a panther handle, it just doesn't make sense. The maverick is insanely weak, the only reason people use it is for it's 6 shot turret. Which you removed! You're still an fng so I'll cut you some slack, but try to be a bit more innovative.

You would need a very long spade bit to make a clip out of SH40.

I have a 5/8 spade bit (would that work? I make cpvc breeches out of SH40 drilled with this stuff and it fits nicely) and another spiral bit that is 5/8 in diameter. Could brass work?
