This is a great design. I have built 2 so far and love the mechanism. It works very well with hair elastics and holds eight rounds. The one I finished last night has ebony grip panels.
Thank you for sharing! The instructions all seem clear to me, but I am uncertain about how thick the plastic should be for part C1. Or for that matter, what type of plastic is used. Can you clarify what is used for that one piece?
CountYulith C1 should be somewhere between 1 and 4mm thick. Polyethylene is best, but any plastic that is neither too soft nor too brittle is fine. A plastic jar lid would work well.
Hi, when fitting the screws the small piece of wood that has the spring in it split, so i had to remake it. How did you fit the screw without breaking it?
Always pre-drill screws with a suitable bit. Test out a few in some scrap wood till you find one that is tight enough to hold the screw but not so tight that it splits the wood.
what if you made a trigger where it didnt actually stop it on the second turn, if you were to pull it halfway? so you have a full auto rubberband gun as well as a semi?
Awesome videos I was able to get great ideas for my kids with them minus the actual shooting part. ( still kids after all) only thing I'm curious about is the shell ejection feature I've seen on a few others but I'm unable to find any tutorials on it. If you happen to know of any could you post or reply
Is your first language Spanish because if it is you did a good job on the English and even if English is your first language it was clear what you were saying.
I don't know if you still remember me, but i'm the guy who asked about the small machine pistol. You said you could maybe revisit your old design that broke, so are you going to do that? And by the way, awesome rb gun again.
I have actually drawn up plans for a select fire M1911. The hammer serves as the weight delay mechanism. I'm having trouble making a simple selector switch, and I have a backlog of other stuff that I'm building. Hopefully I will get around to it eventually!
Hi Parabellum, Does this "Lilliput" gun burst fire if the trigger is pulled slowly, like the Sidearm 2? Is this gun easier to make than step-up action? Thanks
thefunnyvideos100 Yeah sure! My advice is zoom the PDF to the size you want, take a screenshot and redraw it in MS Paint, or whatever program you prefer.
And I wanted to ask, how can I make the mechanism so it shoots more rubber bands? Or should I use the mechanism you did in a video of simple 14 round rbg?
thefunnyvideos100 Use this mechanism; it's more reliable. For more shots, you just need to use thicker timber because it all depends on how much space there is on either side of the rotor. So if you use 12mm wood instead of 6mm, you'll get at least 10 shots.
Nikolai Abraimov Assuming you can get 2.8mm thick nails (you'll have to find what sizes they have in the US and convert it to metric) you should be able to get by with a 1/8" bit (3.18mm) instead of a 3.0mm bit. I'm fairly sure that the 2.8mm bit is actually an imperial size (we have both metric and imperial bits in Aus). However I can't remember exactly what it is. 7/64 maybe?
Just buy one of these for a couple of dollars, you don't really need a 'proper' respirator: www.monstercolors.com/image/cache/data/dust%20mask-500x500.jpg
Dear Parabellum,I hope I am not bothering you with my questions, but here is another one. If I want to download the "free" plans for this gun, which I'll be making for a friend, it sends me to the Scribd page, but I have to sign up for the site. However, I don't actually want to pay, and I don't I have to. So how could I maybe avoid it?Greetings,Jelle
Olá parabellum1262 gostaria de você nos indicasse um kit de ferramentas essenciais para confecção dessas armas . Você tem algumas ferramentas que acha importante ? Hello parabellum 1262 would like you to indicate a kit of essential tools for making such weapons. Do you have some tools to find important?
This isn't a full list, but these are most of the tools I use: Hand plane Drill press (or electric drill) Scroll saw (or coping saw) Sandpaper (various types and sanding pads) Various files Hand saw Combination square Centre punch Small chisel They are in rough order of most to least important.
is it cool if I take the template and mess with it and make a slightly modified model i'm asking in the fact you made it and i would enjoy to meet up and help you get with some new ideas i got some good ideas for models if you want ill give you my number to talk about some ideas and im for real
magicmanclark I start with a piece of wood about 150 x 12 x 5mm (L x W x H) and plane the curved outside surface of the grips. Then it just has to be cut into two pieces to make each grip.
Hödur Gustavsson I used a plastic document box like this: m4.uxcell.com/photo_new/20120719/c/ux_a12071900ux0391_ux_c.jpg You can also use plastic jar lids, food containers, etc.
***** No problem. I too am hoping to make several of these for Christmas gifts. Thanks for providing the blueprints and tutorial. I have really enjoyed watching your videos.
I usually start with a long, flat piece of wood, shape the rounded outer profile with plane and sandpaper, then I simply cut that long piece to length.
Correct! However, I did that deliberately because there's no point making templates for simple rectangular pieces. It's easier to just measure them from the master blueprint.
