Annnnd….. That’s another new project started, piccies in due course - I think I might have an addiction 😰

Here’s a fun fact it doesn’t need to be cold air to stop the fog just any form of air movement - admittedly sticking the blower/fan over a kettle would fog up ya lens

@Adolf Hamster Almost every business has got fucked this last year, I’m self employed so I was earning zero moolar even more so than most as I live in the fuck-wit city that is Leicester who couldn’t follow simple rules, I think from March 2020 to May 2021 I worked a total of 17 weeks out of 60+ weeks There’s always ways to improve/succeed without be a douche to your customers. Happily I’m now back fully working I’m back being my usual happy self putting my clients first and even tho I lost a sack load of money whilst still paying costs which have now increased I still haven’t increased any of my rates to my people as I know they are probably struggling financially too.

@Druid799 That’s a proper shitter matey, this is one reason I pay with either PayPal or my Credit Card - there is always a way to turn about bad service but bad manners need punishment wether it’s financial in form of a card chargeback or to the council where you can cite lack of safety of minors
-
@Rogerborg No matey, this attempt was with lots of Shoe Goo & being clamped up for a couple of days to cure and seems solid enough admittedly I’m not planning on trying to rip them apart for now but I have some Gorilla two part epoxy resin and some JB Weld steel stick ready but I was using the cheapest/already opened first.

The battery box has a on/off switch on it - nice & simple

@ShamalThe Goggles have had some heavy tweakage to fit around my glasses but my glasses still did the fog thing so I attached a couple of 25mm brushless fans in the corner it’s wired up to a small battery box which I used to tape to the strap but now will Velcro since I have got some for another project and a rechargeable 9v battery from my bass, and when my glasses started to fog at any point I would flick the switch it worked a treat a very very low fan sound - so faint someone stood next to me thought they had a gas leak This was before lock down since I have added the mesh, the goggles came with 3 colour of lens but since these are for indoor I went with the clear. The mesh mask is just a cheap one I got off Amazon with some heavy application of gooooo and it seems sturdy enough - I’ll give it a whirl if the Z-Mart meet up happens in July. Probably cost me £40 in total, but as I had some of the materials anyways it would be closer to £50 from scratch version 2 will be just the cost of goggles.

Finally finished my integrated goggle/mask combo with fans for indoor CQB

@Shamal Getting you to confess to your murderous actions just goes to confirm said statement

Hate to be the bearer of bad news ….. There’s no such thing !

@Druid799 Nah M80, it’s just from the pile of old duvets that the wife got from her mum as I was asking after material for prototyping before I use the expense stuff - if you check my bandoleer images you will see the Hawaiian duvet I used to get the “kinks” out but the reverse/other side of the jack pattern is plain white and it would’ve looked full 3-K’s
-
You should have seen the old duvet cover I was gonna use for this test run and I won’t mention the off cuts of this one is white and you know what that would look like
-
So I’ve been “at it” again today and finally started mocking up my ghillie hood/upper and actually got the first one knocked up as a test fit/size. The hood’s a little tight on top so I’m gonna slap in a panel on to to give me some more head room, I think I’m gonna widen the neck area so I make my head/shoulders more of a triangle than square/circle which the eyes will notice. I think I’m gonna open the chest area so the edges don’t meet and I might bring the hem up to mid-rift but keep a tail on the back…. Comments and suggestions plz (and before anyone asks WHY you making it ?? The answer is WHY NOT ! I get a custom fit and the fact I can )
-
@Enid_Puceflange Yea exactly what I was gonna do - I contacted the seller and they are gonna partially refund me £6 so all good /edit actually they not only refunded £6 on the product price but they also refunded on VAT so they knocked off £7.20 in total //win

Just bought a Baofeng UV5R as it was on a deal of the day on Amazon, but the clip missing when it turned up so might send it back but it was cheap as chips so might just keep it.
-
I hope you’ve started looking at getting a refund from your card provider or from PayPal BEFORE it gets too late1

Way back in the past when Titanic first came out was sat in the coffee room in work everyone’s talking about it , one of the nurses (a particularly pretty but thick as pigshit one) says her new boyfriend was taking her that night . Few minutes later one of the girls turns to me and says “I know you wouldn’t want to see it as it’s a love story but you taking your wife to see it ?” Too which I replied “God no ! Last film she’d want too see , the ship sinks and they all drown !” To which the thick pretty one jumps up and shouts at me “thanks for ruining the film by telling me what happens no point going now !” And flounces off !😳 as I’m sure you can imagine there was stunned silence in the room with everyone just looking at each other then I burst out laughing and everyone else rapidly followed !😂

A Massive Novritsch advert in the background sending me to his site if I click anywhere non forum ……

/Agreed! But I would say the top two are kinda the type of image that is one step away from asking to be “sectioned” when you go to the “Big House”

So first game back is booked and of course “The Airsoft Money Pit” has opened its ever-hungry maw ……. New scope mount for T10, 2 x pairs of Bollé goggles, an extra battery (just in case), a new boogie hat, couple of cans of gas, a extra pistol mag, another pack of tracer BB’s cuss the two packs of tracers that I already have may not be enough 🙄 I just happy I haven’t got my UKARA anymore (yes thanks C-19) cuss I am pondering a new Primary & Sidearm

Complete Noob, Never Played Airsoft but Looking to Get Into it
MiK replied to Joe Edwards's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Welcome aboard Joseph, The style of boots are good I have a similar Teesar version, but I would also recommend some “Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof” (‘spray or foam - your choice) as the suede could do with some protection, deffo with the current sun-rain-sun weather we are having currently -
@Mr. No_Face Cheers buddeh, am still a little vexed at my schoolboy error in patten but I’m gonna do another sooner than later with any tweaks needed after I run that one for a couple of games. I think those masks are mental !! I would to attempt making something like that but I have to contend with my spec’s but I think I have a “Baldrick” on that bouncing about in the nether regions of my brain
-
Almost done just ran out of green cotton but here is the “fabled” reverse bandoleer I’ve been working on-off-on, but I thought I would share and yes I know the MC pattern is not correct but when some things are on it’s not super noticeable
-
So I’ve finally stopped sulking on the fubar on the bandoleer and I’m gonna finish it as a back up and then make a 2nd but “correctly”
-
@HuttArmouries that’s very pretty tbh
