Future Project Ideas

  1. LCD screen for digital ammo readout
  2. LCD screen for voltage readout
  3. Nite-Spectre - Spectre with a plunger tube swap.
  4. Homemade motion sensing mine
  5. Homemade grenade
  6. Nerf coilgun - using a burst of electrical current through a "barrel" made of coils of wire. The magnetic fields all point out the "barrel" and a metal projectile is levitated through and fired silently.
  7. Extra special priming mechanism - using mechanical advantage through pulleys and gears to prime a spring that isn't possible by human muscle. This will require an insanely strong spring, but maybe a Mcmaster 9637K13 might do the job! 
  8. Dart backstop (so I don't destroy any darts with my Chrony testing) 
  9. Magnetic dart "doggy" door for faster loading of hoppers
  10. Convert a Super Soaker! 
  11. Better spring-loaded trigger for air tank blasters
  12. Electronic air release solenoid for fastest possible air release 
  13. Spring as plunger dampening 
  14. Multiple plungers 
  15. Ratcheting crossbow 
  16. Slower darts with more padding for indoor play 
  17. Horizontally stacked hopper 
  18. Homemade air tank

    1. I want to make an air tank-powered grenade that you pump up, but I'm having trouble thinking of a trigger mechanism!

    1. Oh it's going to happen! It definitely won't be practical, but it will probably be the first of its kind :)

  3. ah, you are going to be riding the same boat as me one multiple plungers, after I finish my longshot like you did, then i plan to put 2 nightfinder plunger tubes, in one gun, or something like that.
