BR DONE!
Modded NERF blaster with a scaled Butt and top handle .

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mk6 Pistol ( done)
Ill try to find the Src . NOT my CAD work.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sticky detonator
Painted toy from goodwill!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shotgun .
NERF blaster with 3D printed parts modded to fit .
Butstock. pump handle and top sight.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Covi needller.
from BoomCo with modded top spikes and a paint job.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sniper.
based on a NERF blaster and 3D printed parts . Carbon fiber barrel extension.
---------------------------------------------------
Plasma pistol ( allmost done) On hold
energy sword( started today)
Needle( I am gonna buy the NERF one when it comes out)
I was chatting with Exalted in person a few days ago and had one of those lights in my head switch on.
We were looking at weapons to build ect,
Ive done lots of stuff with optics and lasers and fiber optics .
I went to the Digikey website and found this lovely LED array.
http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/SBT-90-WDLS-F71-NB150/SBT-90-WDLS-F71-NB150-ND/4755821
I have access to some potent 18650 cells that can sink 20 amps or more at 3.7 V per cell .
2 in series is near 150watts of 30 sec pulsed discharge.
At 40 plus Lumen per watt of most LEDs that means I can beam up 6000 Lumen !
Yes LEDs of that size DO need a serious heatsink ! but they are pulsed duty . 20 Sec per 5 Min . for cons so I can pose ect,
Ill need to do some thermal math but I suspect I can just make it passive with some metal .
for the blade I have a novel idea
light pipe! .
PDF on it .http://www.lumex.com/images/Lumex-WhatIsALightPipe-Part1.pdf
SO polycarb is not the same index of refraction as acrylic. Fiber we use in out day to day life works on the idea of TIR .
One part is poly One acrl the light will bounce in the inner parts and leak out but only enough to glow and give that spark effect in it
OR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a contact in the HV effects industry who does these
http://www.capturedlightning.com/frames/lichtenbergs.html
I may see if Burt can crakkel up some blades ! ( or at least some inserts.
Its CAD time!
Here is the FILE Ill base my first layout on as a proof of concept
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:35930/#files
BRB
EDIT !
so here is a Link to what Ive tweaked and moded for nerf mods. along with some props and the like
