Steampunk Spiderman Wrist Blaster

nerf, spiderman wrist, blaster, gun, steampunk, custom, mod,
This was a little project I had to do since this everything about this blaster is totally steampunk other than it's stock colors.

I took it apart and did a very quick rang mod of removing the ARs, which just fall out like those in a maverick, and plugging the little holes in each barrel.

The ranges are good, just like you'd expect out of an air blaster.  It takes about 15-20 pumps to get full range.  I did have some problems with this thing exploding darts and I'm not sure why it was happening or why it stopped.
For paint I just used a satin black base and used the cheapo dollar craft paint you can find at any craft store for the metallic brass, silver and copper.

More after the jump!

Rotator X-8 "Piece of 8" by LGC

And so it begins....
Kicking off my first post of LGCs work with his Rotator X-8s
These are lanard blasters which are hard or overpriced to get your hands on which just makes me want one even more, especially when they are made to look like this.

These things just look amazing when painted and look like they were made to be steampunked.
More awesomeness after the jump!

BlasterPro Auto Fire E5000

The guys at Maya Group were nice enough to send me a Blaster Pro try out and review for the greater good of the internet.

Blaster Pro, internals
This thing is pretty impressive.  If you were turned off by Xploderz because of their lack of trigger or the tendency of the breech to destroy ammo, both of those problems have been fixed.  What these things do have in common with Xploderz is a nice strong spring and big plunger tube.
Overall the great ranges and rate of fire along with a much cooler look make this blaster worth checking out.

NF rifle with Airtech Integration

Greenwing's NF rifle with backup At3k tank and rear loading At2k turret.

 The plunger tube is the same size as one in a standard Tornadobow, which is slightly larger than what is typically used in NF Rifles. It uses a skirt seal and a cut down K26 at full compression. The At2k Turret is flipped around and made rearloading.







Firing demo and closer look:

Double Nerf Drum Fed Tommy 20

The Darthramballs, A double clipfed tommy 20 auto
This was one of the first mods I ever took on.
I used 1 or 2 9.6v RC batteries to power it. 19v + is also the reason why this ended up dead and being cannibalized for parts. When it was running it was ridiculously fun.

-Flywheels were extended with sections of PVC.
-Flywheels wrapped in electrical tape to catch streamlines.
-Mag wells are made from an old Rubbermaid bin using plastic welding.  The material is somewhat flexible so it can old the drums with just friction.

To allow this to be able to fire using 2 drums I to the arm that use to turn the tommy 20 drum and turned it into a 2nd dart pusher.  The two arms alternate pushing darts out of the clips into the flywheels.
