Nothing much, just a pic of my EPVAT Chimaera

Is actually my second attempt. The first came out with the handle too far from the shoulder stock, and too much distance from the top rail to the bottom. It has been adjusted, and is super comfy. Where ever there is duct tape, there's a zip tie underneath that. I got tired of getting cut by them. Pump is held on with 2 zip ties and lotsa hotglue.

Good Golly! So much WIN! I would love to see a firing video of that beast. And more pics!

Where did you find the clear McGregor pump btw? My sporting goods store only had black ones.

I'll have a firing vid up soon. I found the pump at my local not-ace. It used to be an ace, but now someone else owns it.

I've been working on this baby for awhile. I present to you, my Plusbow. It has aluminum sideplates, white nylon rod, a grommet plunger head, and a K26 at full compression.


(Sorry for the poor picture, I don't know what happened.)

The hopper didn't fit on my usual background, so here are the rest of the pictures.



The paint is super shiny.



^primed.

It's unique and crazy beautiful! The clear and all the white are so nice with your black sideplates. It's my favorite!

Pool noodle swords!



They connect!



The blade is 1/2" thinwall pvc glued to a threaded coupler. I added some shelf liner to the grips for a sharkskin look. The pommel is a slice from a football/missile. I had a dream that I cracked my tv screen. 2 Days later I made this. Evidence for ancient aliens? Giorgio Tsoukalos's hair is skeptical.

The final form of my RCCarbine. I shrunk down the front section as much as I could. I may add a pump-action thing to it later, now that today was the last day of school.

My first homemade! An SGNerf style pistol. Needs a little tinkering and a big brother!

That's so cool dude!!! I actually got a smile knowing that there's another homemader on the forum. Is your trigger channeled PVC, or something else?

The trigger is from a vinyl window frame.

Wha...what about me?!

Iatc: very nice. I'd've gone for a different priming handle, but it looks overall nice.

When I saw yours I got a smile, too, but I didn't see it until two weeks after  you posted it, so I never said anything.

@Cat: I would've never thought of using something like that. We use plastic that they put in windows, why not just use the frame, right?

Well, that makes it okay then. Since then, I've built a pump grip for it, but it needs some furniture, the plain PVC makes it grip at bad angle.
