Me: Should I binge watch Firefly again? RU-vid: PunishedProps uploaded "How To Make Malcolm Reynold's Pistol From Firefly..." Me: It's a sign.

@solomonelisha3543 2 года назад

I guess im asking randomly but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me!

I started watching this channel to learn to paint a resin cast of Malcolm Reynold's Pistol that I bought at Dragon Con this year. I started foam smithing from the books so I'm super excited for this template bringing it full circle. Thank you!

@orange_bike 7 лет назад

I really appreciate your channel for how you show how to use a variety of materials - eva, styrene, pvc, 3D print and the painting processes you use. Thanks for sharing templates and your process - I think I've found a new hobby.

@pytle 7 лет назад

Congrats Bill! Very happy for you! Your inspiration to prop builders everywhere!

@ZacHiggins 7 лет назад

Yes!! That turned out so awesome, I can't wait to get started on one too!!

@timohippy 5 лет назад

im having a go at this build now, looks like a lot of fun, plus i love working with PVC foamex. Will tweet you a pic once its finished Bill.

@ororina7330 7 лет назад

This came out amazing!! I just purchased a scrollsaw I'm excited to use on some great patterns such as this! If I get it done in time, I'll post it. Thank you so much its awesome!

@ScottkLeslieActor 7 лет назад

Thank you for this template! I've been wanting a replica of this pistol for a while now, but making my own will be 100% more awesome. Also, congrats on the hundred thousand! Love your work and your channel, and I'm happy to see it continue to grow.

@fntsmn 7 лет назад

Really cool! Love how you used so different material and way to make it! Congrats again for the 100k!

@johnkelley9877 6 лет назад

Firefly was a great show and this is a great looking prop. You really did a good job of recreating it.

@punishedprops 6 лет назад

+John Kelley Thanks!

@sa.l.t4618 7 лет назад

If RU-vid is the only way they get money, they're not getting enough for the awesome things they do

@felixdietzCGN 7 лет назад

great piece! like the all-in-one-part builds over the multiple parts!

@TheBlazingSilver 7 лет назад

I'm excited to try and follow along with this one. I want to make a McCree costume for next year, and I think this would be a good practice for designing/building his revolver!

@alsmith1025 7 лет назад

This was so cool. the finish gun looks sick!

@randyjennie2381 7 лет назад

Awesome build. enjoyed the watch and result. to keep drill from walking on a radius surface,try using an End mill just deep enough to give a good starting point for your drill tip. thanks for your shops great builds

@barrelfish8106 7 лет назад

thanks for the materials links, been looking for something like that pvc foam plastic

@robbijohnson4614 Год назад

That looks AWESOME !!!! It looks real !!!!

@David1962. 7 лет назад

pvc is something i know wel i use this all the time in my line work. that labels my name great job.

@MakerofThingss 7 лет назад

Hey man! Just wanted to give you a quick thanks... I've been making for a few years, but after losing my day job earlier this year I decided to make prop building/random crap making my day job. Started out small with a limited budget and hardly any tools (just moved countries and didn't have much stuff) but now as we get close to the end of the year I am making a very good living, have $10k plus in tools and making 5-10 sales a day! Just wanted to thank you because you've always been one of those guys giving me inspiration and pushing me, so thanks! Hopefully we can hang out or work together in the future! Have an awesome holidays! - Jesse.

@DJDiddyDog 7 лет назад

You guys are legends. I now simultaneously want to binge watch Firefly for the first time (I know I know I've never watched Firefly? SHOCK AND HORROR!) and make the pistol. I'm gonna end up cosplaying Mal at this rate... so thanks! 😁

@jennhill8708 3 года назад

You’re obviously talented & I quite like your encouraging other makers. Well done. I’m not interested in making anything requiring sand paper, but love to see the process.

@punishedprops 3 года назад

Thanks so much for watching!

@DoctorBahnausSee 7 лет назад

i've 3d printed the gun about 3 month ago and the parts are still all over the place. made a functioning trigger and some internal lightling but i still haven't glued it together. i really dont want to sand it :D but now you made one, so i guess i have to finish mine as well.

@DoctorBahnausSee 7 лет назад

***** well.. i'll try to. had to finish the eye of agamotto first as a commishion

@mattlovespizza7547 7 лет назад

Congrats on 100K subs! Keep up the great work Bill and Britt

@RansomMakes 7 лет назад

This. Is. Stellar. Awesome build and finishing as always, sir. Thanks for sharing this. Downloading these blueprints ASAP.

@nerfreak01 4 года назад

You mean shiny. Not stellar. Lol.

@LAKster 7 лет назад

I literally just finished the blueprints for my own >-> then you come along with this vid! argh! Oh well, still proud of my work so far. Definetly gonna make mine some time soon, just gotta for my next paycheck to roll in so I can buy me some parts (and a new rotary tool cause the old ones motor just said kaboom)

@rosebuddesign635 7 лет назад

Absolutely gorgeous! 👍

@DaveGaylord3D 7 лет назад

This is impressive - well done sir!

@SamFuller1989 7 лет назад

Man, I reeeally want to try using a workflow like this for making a Hawkmoon, but I have a lot of planning to do in order to work around not having the power saws/sander (apart from a Dremel)! The results here are really good!

@graemebrumfitt6668 6 лет назад

Mr Punisher Dude... love the fact you mention that this can be made with any materiel. I use a lot of wood as I do a lot of woodwork but your incite into other materials has hooked me cheers Dude from England... BTW your Dwemer armour is my next project for Halloween, you beaut.

@Quetzalovercoatl 7 лет назад

Wow I was so so excited to see this pop up in my subscriptions, Firefly is one of my very favourite things. And you even chose to wear a red shirt for the intro! Love it! This may well end up being my very first go at prop replication :)

@Quetzalovercoatl 7 лет назад

Haha of course! Fun for me also :D

@AaronGRandall 7 лет назад

Fantastic build! I will definitely try it...

@SeareanMoon 7 лет назад

Loved the gun! Will try it but got a lot lined up so may not get to it until Summer… here's to your next 100,000!! congrats!!

@bobartsmith236 7 лет назад

Congrats on the subscribes! The gun looks great and I think I'll have a go at making one with the same materials - one of my favourite to use. A long as it doesn't get too cold and I don't freeze in my workshop 😆

@jennhill8708 3 года назад

We need more more more FIREFLY!!!! A friend gave me the series download. I then bought the DVD for the movie. I can see a monster watching day in my future. I was delighted to get all the wonderful adventures of Mal & his crew. We don’t watch TV, only using it for movies. I also read the Lord off the Rings just a few years after publication. While I like the movies, the books are incredible. Then came Robert Jordan. He was another awesome writer. I need someone to read who is just as talented! I keep trying, but that individual hasn’t hit my radar, yet.

@punishedprops 3 года назад

Nice!

@paradogmatic 7 лет назад

You might be able to cut back on the overwhelming uniform yellow of the metal by blending / mixing in some silver in your final highlights -- you don't want pure silver but just perhaps a bit less saturation and brightness. This is a trick used in smaller scale stuff ( 28mm miniatures ) to highlight yellow/gold metals. Probably needs some finesse to make it work at this scale.

@deadswordsman 7 лет назад

Amazing build.

@MasatoKay 5 лет назад

If you need to drill on a curve or rounded edge, I suggest using a mill bit, it cuts into curves nicely

@JaminTaylor 7 лет назад

Killer job on this. Well done.

@IM-go7xe 7 лет назад

this is excellent craftsmanship! i bet you could make a perfect G1 Megatron w.p38!

@GraceWillow 7 лет назад

WOWWW. Beautiful template! And congrats on your 100k subscribers yay!!!!

@MunchSkating 7 лет назад

I made a firefly pistol earlier this year using pieces I designed for a laser cutting. I cut each layer and rounded them off until I got the shape of the pistol right. Mine is not insanely accurate, but I really like the finale result

@KatrinaLeFaye 7 лет назад

Thank you, although mine will be made out of, and hopefully continue to be, functional pistol something like this is helpful.

@CaptainDraner 7 лет назад

Congrats on reaching 100k \o/ I finished Firefly last night, and just finished watching Serinity ! You couldn't post this at a more appropiate time ! I'm so going to make one. Let's be bad guys !

@CaptainDraner 7 лет назад

I'm going to have a lot of pvc foam scrap from my mando armor, still a work in progress though... Thanks for all the videos you make, really inspiring and full of awesome tips I plan on using later on.

@brandenforrer2603 Год назад

You should get a 1/8 in flat end mill used for cnc machines and put it in your dremall you would be amazed how well small cnc tools work in roatery tools

@feralart 7 лет назад

I've never tried to make the gun, but I have made the holster from leather to go with a resin replica I bought.

@Raxyn10 7 лет назад

Hey Bill, do you ever plan on working on anything from dishonored in the future. I would love to see your take on the moving parts on some of the guns!

@paultate 7 лет назад

I love this, and I'm especially envious of your patience. What was the total build time on this project?

@stujeb79 7 лет назад

Hmm I might have to use this technique to make a Nico Okarr SW:TOR blaster

@propreplicatorproductions2431 7 лет назад

badass!

@tyutje 6 лет назад

Hey dude, quick suggestion. You could also square out the grooves with a router bit in the Dremel. (And a small base for it of course)

@JohnOSullivan_bray 5 лет назад

thats amazing

@punishedprops 5 лет назад

Thanks so much!

@audienorman66 7 лет назад

made one of these years ago from insulation foam. time to go for two!

@audienorman66 7 лет назад

Yeah I totally just made it from internet photo reference. I'm eager to try it with your template.

@philippeferland3725 7 лет назад

Would love to see you do the same technique for Han Solo DL-44!!

@squishy1114 7 лет назад

im going to design and 3d print this using your measurement.

@jcmakes5977 7 лет назад

Unfair you make it looks so easy to make :D. I was wondering how many hours of work.

@lasarith2 7 лет назад

Great build Bill 🙂 I was watching you sand with you,re bare finger, if you cut a finger off rubber gloves and rap the sandpaper around that it can help with edge of you,re fingers not getting sanded (found that out when I was building my desks ) hope it helps you 🙂

@lasarith2 7 лет назад

Punished Props lol yeah I know what that's like 😉 and Congrats to both you,re self and Brittany 😀 to not only reach 100K subscribers but Surpassing it 128K 😀👍 hoping 200K is not long in coming 🙂

@TrishhMakes 7 лет назад

congrats on the 100k!! you guys toootally deserve it! Annnd one question, in that 10 sec video, only the finished gun must be featured? or some of the build as well? THank you! will be submitting my own firefly gun soon enough :)

@TrishhMakes 7 лет назад

thank you!

@RecklessModelling 7 лет назад

Awesome! I will certainly try to get it done by the deadline! Any chance you could provide A4 size plans for us UK viewers?!

@bummer6 7 лет назад

comparing this to the prop Dylan made for DIY Prop Shop is like comparing the Mona Lisa to a scribble made by a 4 year-old on a napkin. You should totally make a guest appearance on that show! You're as good or WAY better than any of the hosts they've had.

@Dandy_Cowboy 7 лет назад

Hey there punished props! I'm really wanting to make a functioning replica of a lever rifle I have and was wondering if casting each individual piece (minus the springs of course!) would be a good course of action?

@lundygras1 7 лет назад

Hi Bill, I'm going to give this a shot for my first weapon build. I did the download and was wondering if page one (full gun) was the correct size? I printed everything just as I got them in the download and the breakdown (page 2 and 3) were scaled larger than the full gun.

@rwiersema 7 лет назад

Thank you soo much

@RustIndustries1 7 лет назад

Will you be showing pics of our finished guns in your next vid?

@bitsRboolean 7 лет назад

Congrats on the 100k! On a random note I thought for a second that you were in front of a blue screen of your work space. I think it's that little bit of back light hitting you from behind/above that kind of makes the lighting feel 'off' like you had been chromakeyed. Kind of made me briefly question the nature of my reality. Is everyone just on a blue screen? Am I even real?

@MacGuyver84 7 лет назад

I want to do this but i want to cast it after its built. Where do you get your styrene and boards?

@anthonywallace1200 7 лет назад

Hey btw I have a pretty cool foam template I want you have what would be the best way to get them to you

@codasinger5298 7 лет назад

ayyyyy, we got the same Belt Sander

@RustIndustries1 7 лет назад

Every time I see your prop builds I think maybe I should save my materials for another build but then I can't help myself and make your props the next day🙈

@radar536 4 года назад

Hope you can make a living out of it, because there are nothing like make money with something you like(and you work is amazing). Thanks for sharing. I was wondering(seeing other projects) how much you spent in hardware and tools... Thanks for sharing.

@punishedprops 4 года назад

I'm not sure off my head, I don't actively track that.

@radar536 4 года назад

@@punishedprops Ok Thx. One more thing...to make a metalic pistol like this would require an expensive set of tools, right? I have my own creations too, but just in 3D or drawings. Thx again for you attention!

@emilykovairik5311 7 лет назад

OMG !!! AWESOME ...... LOVE FIREFLY !!!! YOUR GREAT !!!!!!!!!! :-)

@malkavian5 7 лет назад

how would you compare 1/2" PVC vs MDF? Didn't know PVC comes in 1/2" thickness...

@Ravenkiwi 7 лет назад

Ah well guess my Destiny Ghost and Ghost in the Shell Dummy Barrier are being put on hold! Damn you Bill! Damn you to prop making hell! Haha seriously though this is awesome. Thanks for all the advice and entertainment over the last couple of years.

@chadmarsh5636 7 лет назад

I must be missing something simple, if I print the 'full-size.pdf' as actual size, poster print across 2 sheets, the scale is correct and the total pistol length is 12.75" like it says. If I print the "page01.pdf" and "page02.pdf" as actual size, 1 landscape page apiece, I will end up with a 15" total length on the pistol. Which is correct?
