Do You Like Chubbs?

21 August 2008 - 07:37 PM

Alright this has been bothering me and I have been seeing some members posting they love it then the next week that they don't like it. I also like knowing peoples feedback.

Model Magic Dart

20 August 2008 - 05:12 PM

Alright so yesterday I was bored and I had some left over model magic from the chubbs project. So after making a few missiles for my cannon I decided to use the leftover model magic to try making a full dart out of model magic. I don't have pictures yet but they work well out of an ERTL pasg. They bounce around quite a bit and are more accurate than model magic shotgun ammo. I also think these will make a great alternative to stefans for those whose parents wont let them use stefans.

Colorado Nerf War?

15 August 2008 - 11:45 PM

Alright everyone There have been tons of new validations and so I was wondering if any of you would like to come to a nerf war. But there is a catch; my parents would prefer if we had it my age group so we are going to have to keep it under 17. And so futureseal and I have been thinking of hosting a nerf war near us so far here is the list.

EDIT: woops I guess this went in trading instead of nerf wars. Move please.

Marshmallow Shooter

15 August 2008 - 03:36 PM

Alright So I just got home from visiting relatives and on the way to the airport we stopped a Mall of America where I got cheese, chocolate, a cheese hat and this interesting little gun. I had seen the one that my freind had and noticed it had quite the air output so I saw one and decided to get it.
To do this mod you will need:

hacksaw or dremal for a cleaner cut

hotglue gun and sticks or plumbers goop

Marshmallow shooter
(can be found here
or at other stores)

cpvc

Alright my writeups sucked when I tried something other than the step one step two format so its back to that.

Step one: Remove the front marshmallow breach section by pushing down on black nubs.
Step two: Once this is removed dremal or saw off just behind the front AR grate section.

But see that little black thing in there? thats important, leave it there it's part of the valve.
Posted Image
Step three: wrap a barrel length of your choice ( I used a 4 inch barrel because that was all I had left) in enough duct tape to fit snug inside the stock barrel.
Posted Image
Step four: Put the barrell in the stock barrel.
Posted Image
Step five: hot glue or plumbers goop around the edges of the duct tape and cpvc and around the edges of the duct tape and stock barrel.
Posted Image
Step six: Hot glue over the black nubs holding the part of the valve i talked about earlier.
Posted Image
Step seven: Now its time to plug the pump. Unscrew the back of your gun as shown.
Posted Image
Now simply hot glue over the hole in the plunger head.

Now your done. No official ranges yet as it is raining heavily right now but I am guessing upwards of 90. I have done the welt test in which it did well.

Chubbs

28 July 2008 - 12:14 AM

Alright start off by opening your gun. Then drill out the air restrictor.

Posted Image
Pop out the pegs on the chains.
Posted Image
Posted Image
And put the gun back together, and saw it like this.

Part two: Integration.

Alright Before the flames this is not an internal integration. I did an external integration because there was NO room.
First unscrew your titan then take out the internals. Cut yourself a barrel for the titan I used a barrel aprox. 5 inches long and fill in the space with hot glue or plumber’s goop.
Posted Image
Then epoxy or hot glue the air tank to the bottom of the Vulcan.
Posted Image
Now take the air pressure meter. And hornet attachment air transfer tube and epoxy or hot glue them to the sides, this will add more support for the titan.



Part three: cosmetics.

Start by taking a lump of model magic and hot gluing it to the front. Press the alligator’s pinchers bottom half of the head against the lump.
Posted Image
Now put model magic on the rest of the gun as shown.
Posted Image
Now shape the tail make it as long or short as you want but I made mine 5 or 6 inches.
Posted Image
Now push a piece of coat hanger 1 inch longer than your tail into the tail.
Posted Image
Cover the handle in model magic and push the piece of coat hanger into the handle.
Posted Image
Allow the model magic to dry.
Now for the head, take off the stick the alligator head was on.
Posted Image
Now cut the string that was in the head.
Posted Image
And replace it with about 1 and a half feet of wire.
Posted Image
Now put a key ring on the other end of the wire.
Posted Image
And then hot glue the head of the alligator to the model magic 'slot'.
Posted Image
And now finally cover up the alligators eyes with painters tape and spray paint the whole thing with green spray paint.
And here is the finished product!

I hope you people enjoy this!
