Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
Chris, I can't wait to see War Machine. For the mini-gun, I do suggest a high RPM motor. Faron, hopefully I'm done before Comicon. Update: I'm finishing the detailing of the receiver and waiting for the putty to dry. However, I added the coil to the barrels. I used the lid that came with the bondo t...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
So far everything is coming together and I'm on target for Comicon. I'm now up to 17 lbs. :eek: (That includes the receiver / upper handle pieces.) I had to add file down the sides of screw that mounts into the drill. It was slipping and causing the barrels not to function. I've got the trigger adde...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
Why is it that every time I have a WIP, I need up cutting my hand. It was almost a "Cloud City" maneuver. But not to worry, I'm still in one piece. I was forced to take a break and thought I'd give you all a brief summary of the status: 1. All the Wal-Marts in the Northland are out of Glaz...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
I've encased the receiver with the first round of bondo and still need to apply some glazing putty to fill in the gaps for that smooth appearance. I decided to add an additional battery and run them parallel to power the drill motor. That said, I'm making a modification to the original design of the...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
Okay, I figured it out. I took an older drill, cut off the handle, hooked it up to a flashlight battery, and I now have power (again). http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs447.snc3/25647_1143886015616_1781474602_274294_6181434_n.jpg I have about 4 spare drills around here with no power source / charger. ...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
Okay, I ran into a problem. To make a long story short: "Now young drill charger, you will die!" :emperor: Yep, I almost started an electrical fire while recharging the drill battery and the charger melted. The sad thing is, is that the battery that caused it was going to be the spare batt...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP
I've not had a lot of time to work on this since my last post. We undergoing a complete remodel of our living area, which is almost done. However, I did manage to make it to the work bench today. Sight rail refit: I didn't like how the rail mounted onto the piece, so I found a spare light fixture pa...
