Best way to get rid of the grinding sound is to sand it down with 150, 300, 500, and 1000 grit sandpaper and it'll be super smooth. Wet sanding is recommended
Hey Walcom! Great video. I put one of these on my Longshot and hated the priming sound. I went to the local craft store and got some thin adhesive backed felt and put that on the inside of the hand pump. It may take a little more force to prime but it makes less noise.
Personally I sanded it down, gave it a going over with automotive filler primer, sanded again then painted it; also filled in the logo but that's beside the point.
When I installed that kit, I decided to not use the double sticky tape and plastic welded the pump guide to the shell instead. Granted it took away the sound, but in exchange, it takes away the perfect fit and now my pump grip has some play in it that rattles a bit.
Walcom do you how much shipping would cost for your merch? I live in germany but would like to support you. I think about a Shirt or poster, but I don't have a lot of money so an answer would be nice. Also how are the measurements for the Shirt and the Poster, I could not find the info on teespring.
I have the zombie strike longshot too, got it at a savers and it was missing the priming bars. Kinda wanna get this but also don't want to destroy it tbh
I don't think I need to say this, but I apparently do: Walcom, this is an intervention. You need to stop doing coke on that band-saw. Seriously man, It's not the same as an actual Gundam. Chaylo came over to tell you this way before I said anything.
I fell your pain in the opening man, i was filming a video for school and right in the beginning I fucking vomited every where, so what if saying is don't eat old eggs
I'd like to buy a priming bar from you, one of your long shots I don't have one in my Longstrike so I'll need one also I don't know how to contact you or you contact me please leave information under my comment if you see this or anyone else that has priming bars
oohh... that installation is a lot of work without any tools... I ordered an orange one for my elite longshot, gotta see how I can install it with no machinery
walcom please get real eye protection, I guarantee a Rival face mask isn't ANSI or CSA approved. A real pair of safety glasses is like $3 and will protect you from a lot.
And please never ever cut anything the way you did it on that bandsaw. You could have broken the blade off onto your hands. always make smaller cuts, and knock them out with a chisel. We dont want you to cut yourself
