Topics I've Started

Well....

20 September 2007 - 10:15 AM

So I havent been here for about 8 months, but there is a reason for that, so basically i just finished my homemade gun. So I worked with my dad and his friend on this, they are both mechanical engineers.

We made a semiauto homemade. It uses a spring and a pressure system. The pump attached to the top (some mini electronic pump i found on ebay, its also pretty quiet) so it pumps up a pressure chamber and it cocks the spring back, it uses a lot of pressure and it cocks it pretty quickley, due to an amazing valve my dads friend that my dads friend got. So you click the trigger once and and it releases the air into the chamber that cocks it and again to release the plunger. It shoots about 90ft and about 2 shots a second. So it costed me about 150 dollars, but i believe it is totally worth it. Ill have pictures and a video up later, its drying from the paint i just put on it, call bs, but ill have to prove you wrong, cuz i kno thats what people like to do here.

Building A Computer.

I know that some of you are very good at doing stuff with computers so I really need your help. I know how to put it together but, buying the stuff I'm having trouble with. I have already returned 4 video cards. Ok so I bought this motherboard, and it says its ATX and 12x9.6, and I want to get this case, but on this site it says that the maximum motherboard size is 11x12 and ATX, so will that motherboard fit that case?
