Speedbird_666 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Mark II Goggle fan mount with integrated on/off switch. Tested fitted - just need to solder up a switch - and find some black screws. Next step - goggle strap mounted battery enclosure. PopRocket123, Jaylordofwaargh and Rogerborg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted June 29, 2021 Supporters Share Posted June 29, 2021 Great work all round. I'm starting to get performance anxiety about my gobs of hot melt glue and Poundland rattle can black now. Speedbird_666 and Tackle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to get a 3D printer but I might miss making shit with my hands - those resin printers look sexy tho…… @mightyjebus I might “if” I was you and since you seem to have a 3D printer* I would serious think about encasing those rare earth magnets with a case of some sort cuss when they get a sharp shock they have been known to shatter - think of your eyes buddy *as I don’t currently have one I would use some Sugru just to stop anything coming away.

Speedbird_666 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Mk III fan mount fully finished, working and mounted, Mk I Goggle strap Battery box done (looks bigger in the picture than it actually is). Battery box needs refinement - I forgot to radius the edges. Mk II will be on the printer later today.

Given the big ol' difference between quality ballistic rated goggles and the same goggles but with a fan, I think there's a huge need for simple ready-made kits (or at least the plans/links grouped together online) based on some common and popular goggle types in order for people do to these mods themselves.

Ive got some 130rd mid caps for when I can get a Tanuki Works HPA adaptor, until then, changing the mag and line was too much of a pain in the middle of a game to put up with. I’ll need to see if the mechanism in the drum is capable of pushing up 0.43’s or it’s a bit of a pointless endeavour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alimcd Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Ran 400 or so 0.28’s through it this morning. Dialled in the regulator but then found it’s creeping a bit when I go up to 0.43’s so ended up having to set the regulator again… I’m very happy that it feeds the 0.43’s fine and I’m getting a consistent 299-305fps @95ish psi. Only slight issue is it looks a little daft but with 2500rd capacity, zero feeding issues and a consistent output I can live with that! Im going to tidy up the JB Weld once it’s completely cured and then probably go over it with some black paint.

HuttArmouries Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 A now fully functional (but not yet pretty) front loading 12 gram co2 cartridge powered tag launcher with adjustable regulator. A nice casing is in the works. Did have to ditch the idea of a trigger mech and use a button for now but the final version should hopefully have something nicer.

Supporters SeniorSpaz87 Posted July 20, 2021 Supporters Share Posted July 20, 2021 My old STAR L86 finally started to fail on me, so I wanted to HPA it. Unfortunately the offset nozzle really limited my options, so I printed and modified a shell to fit a Polarstar F2.

Very rare. You can buy them all but Ive seen maybe a handful myself. And I go to a lot of multi-hundred player MilSims and the like all over the country.

Popular Post Speedbird_666 Posted July 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2021 A mate needed a thumb-saver reloading thingy for his Hi-Capa mags. 10 minutes in Fusion 360, and 40 minutes on the printer later, it worked out pretty good.
