TERRA Operative said:Metalfr3q has also made a closer to actual scale pep of the assault rifle, which has allowed us to better work out how to construct the rifle.
The stock will be made from laminated MDF sheets, with the outer most pieces extending all the way down the side of the gun. The top, end and bottom of the gun will probably be pepped and fiberglassed, with actual rubber used in the grips.
Well, looks like im off to Bunnings!
- Hi ho silver!!
Also, Been having a further look into other weapon builds, and have discovered an alternative for pepping, at least for the hand grip, that will further strengthen the rifle overall. Im a bit ashamed to say that this should have been one of the 1st things to come to mind being a sparky, cause i work with the stuff all the freaking time! ... PVC *palmface* the amount of stuff u can do with it is extensive. rigid/corrugated conduit, couplers, bends, j-boxes, endcaps, bungs, all pvc can be cut down, modified, even remoulded (providing you apply the right amount of heat and skill so as not to set the stuff on fire.. flaming PVC = bad for the koalas. AND YOU!!)
so heres hoping to a successful build. if not, a pile of burning mess may be in its place.
