Okay... due to some heavy rain over the weekend (Its meant to be dry! I dont know whats going on... Not that im complaining about rain after 5 years of drought hehe) ive had to take the bondo indoors, or at least in a shed. It was both good and bad: the good was i was dry, the bad was that it saturated my filters (And gave me a big dose of fumes... very bad.). Im going to buy some better filters rated at a higher ppm and try to setup some fans for ventilation.
Here are the last pepped pieces, the barrel, the grenade barrel and the grenade barrel tip:
The bondo looks nasty but as you can see, after some sanding it will come out pretty smooth:
Resin on the newly pepped bits. Unfortunately i didnt mix enough catalyst into the resin and it failed big time, 2 hours later and wasnt cured. I figured id break out the heater and see what i could do. 1.5 hours of the heater on high and it cured finally.
I fiberglassed over the rondo on the 'hand grip' as when the rondo dried, it warped alot. I then broke it a little to get it back into the correct shape then went over it in fiberglass. Its much better now but i think ill remake this bit without the little vent holes. These can be dremeled into it later. Also for the barrel brackets, ill make them out of some thin aluminium.
Oooo it even looks like a Pulse rifle now!

(I was hoping it would fit in the case above but as you can see its too small hehe)
To-do list:
Remake the 'hand grip'
Sand sand sand!
Work out if i need to cut the shroud in half and strengthen with fiberglass.
Pull the Stampede apart and work out where it needs to be trimmed.
Buy ammo counter bits.
Phew!
