In Topic: Water vs. Dryer? dart saving methods

06 February 2020 - 02:47 PM

The idea is that by heating the darts you can cause the air trapped inside the foam (it's closed-cell) to expand and the dart forms back to its original shape.

If you're not careful, yes you can melt darts. I've heard of people finding melted dart in their pants after laundry mishaps.

 

To be perfectly honest it would be easier, simpler, and safer to just go and buy new ones. Offbrand is a great idea, look for "Adventure Force" waffle head darts at Walmart. They're green with blue heads and they're better than hasbro's. Performance is comparable to Accustrike.

I love how they put the clearance sticker on the girl's face.

It's a great blaster at a great price.

I had no idea that Hailfires were still a thing, same with Stockades.

Sadly I'm not Canadian :P

In Topic: Going spring hunting, no idea where to start.

Well I know to take the plunger rod and spring with me and I did not think about padding the plunger head.

Yes, perhaps making an NIC-grade pistol is the way to go. *evil smile*

In Topic: My strongarms cylinder pop out won't work.

I had a brain fart (again)

Was thinking of something else while tired.

Define "air restrictor". What exactly did you remove...? It's really been a while so I have to brush up on some stuff yet.


See my post about the plunger tube not retracting.

If you push on it when the cylinder has been popped out, does it move a lot the spring back into place? That's the tube not retracting. Again, replace the tiny spring. It's important.
