Progress has been a little slow lately...
In any case, I've been slowly planning my next project--it's going to be a beefy one and I want it done right! For those that don't know, I'm planning to build my first 100% homemade blaster: a RainbowPump. Ryan's version uses a full-length K26, but only utilizes 6'' of compression. Quertyman's version gets near-full compression with 7'' of draw, but unfortunately I already bought the parts for Ryan's version before he even wrote it up.
I have decided to take the middle ground: achieve the same near-full compression as quertyman, but use Ryan's internal coupler design and the original 6'' of draw spec. Some of you may be frowning at this, but I'm not going to use a full-length K26! After cutting down the spring and killing some dead space from the original design, the blaster will be a few inches shorter. It should theoretically shoot harder than a normal RBP! Stay tuned for the:
Shortened RainbowPump
I promise I'll get started soon.....after a couple more missions.
