Thread: DMR wood build.

  1. #1

    DMR wood build.

    I just got some nice pine 2x4's. They were part of a palette that broke at my dad's job, and he was all,"I know who could use this ", then I was all, "yay, ima build a DMR!"

    They kinda look small from all the way up here. Anyway they arent all even lengths because I removed the ends because they were full of giant staples, to the point where removing them would destroy the wood. Also, anyone know where i can get a printable template in 1:1 scale?

    Heres a sliced DRM. It might be the closed thing you can get unless you drew one your self.

    You can take a reference picture and calculate the sizes based on that. Or scale it up and print it out in 1:1, I think LeeKegan does it that way, too.

    That will do nicely. The DMR will be two layers of wood, with hollowed out areas for internals like the trigger and mag system. The mag will be one piece of wood thick, and will have a dummy round in it, but it wont go down. The detail will be cardboard, and I have a scope, some pvc and a laser sight for everything else.

    Also, i will get around to cuttin tomorrow, because i know you guys love to see people spend hours cutting paper.

    This would be cool to see, its interesting to see weapons built by wood since it usually takes more time and actual artistic powers, I lost my train of though with that last part.

    Its a sliced file, different from normal pep files, if thats what you are asking.

    More progress, got layer one done, also found a scope, and different PVC thicknesses to make the barrels.

    Pretty close huh? Just needs a trigger guard and the front sight for the shape.
