What did you 3D print today?

[LackadaisyJackie]

I've finally printed my Weird body kit! I just need to do some minor adjustments, but it's so awesome to see it in person and all put together, even if its like 80% there

Hey folks, I came up with a quick snatch grip model last night. its for free on my printables

Nothing fancy, but this is what was left on the spool at the end of the print 😅

Rotor anti jam trigger now works reliably, just had to heighten the stem that engages the gears. Printed in Elegoo PLA+.

Got this beautiful pen for walzmas and haven't showed it off yet, so I finally made a gridginity base to display it prominently on my desk.

Couple prototypes for the Carver One

Very interesting. I think there is a market for converting cheap old woodsball guns to mag-fed.

[lhamilton1807]

If I can get this to work - and test it out at SuperGame - I’ll post up the files. I’d love to have conversion kits readily available for Tippmann markers that don’t cost more than the markers themselves. The inline blowback design lends itself well to magfed conversions.

If you figure it out, I'd totally try my hand ad making one. I'm personally not too into mag fed, but I have a buddy who is. I'm alrlways helping him with his spyder Mr series shooters, and aid just get a tippmann going then hand it to him.

I made a 2" pellet, golf ball, the yellow is a sabot cup and the white can is essentially a shot shell for 35 rounds (5×7)

An OB-10 TiPX mag. Next is the spring winder.
Decided to go with PETG since it’s more durable than pla

Yesterday I got the Carver One running on DMAGs

How did it do?

[lhamilton1807]

Have a little adjustment to do in the mag activation tab - it doesn’t consistently release the follower if it’s locked down before I insert the mag. Otherwise it feeds fine once the follower does release (it was shooting 275-280 with co2 with temps in the 50s) and the zero kick hammer lightens the recoil significantly. Here’s the build thread:

Haven’t tried the tipx mag yet - I need 0.6mm spring wire so I can wind up some springs for it. The designer of the mag also created a printable item that’ll wind springs from wire. Pretty slick!

Today I made some of the lightest lightliess pump for my CCM.

Made some cram and jams and stick feeds and feed gates for my Taso. Took a while to design and build the gate feeds. I've never used you before so it was a lot of trial and error. In the end they came out perfect so I made 100. I don't know how long they will last during a game so better safe then sorry.

[The Great Equalizer]

100 should give you a lot of cramming ability. I'd love to see a picture of it on the Spartan.

Started back up my reverse engineered barrage barrel (airsoft conversion) project. Got tired of trying to dial in a relatively snug barrel ID with my printer settings for the 6mm bb's so just said fuck it and now its ~6.65mm ID for now. If paintballs can use oversized bores just fine, surely some plastic bb's can too? So I got over my initial hump of them getting stuck and not firing consistently. Now to deal with the overfeeding issue. I imagine that the detent needs to be raised towards where the bb's sit ever so slightly and/or more spring tension behind it. It stops one just fine if you just place it in the breech by hand, but I think its when they are under tension from the magazine is where the issue is. Don't really ever see myself actually using it often, but it is certainly nice to stay in practice for CAD work.

edit- added some pics, short shooting test video below as well.
