Thanks for that! I'll hit him up sometime this week. The final piece of the puzzle is finally withing reach
Thanks for the tip but to be honest, I have never seen a rake with blades that look similar to t-tracks But I'll take a look tomorrow at the DIY-shop.
Yeah, it sure took me quite some time to get everything where I wanted it. It still has a lot of imperfections, but that's part of a firt-time prop I guess. Also a lot of trial and error and a lot of wasted material. Working a dremel for the first time isn't as easy as it seams
Today I had planned to do the final details but my work got in the way so I didn't do much today. But, the paint has dried up nicely and I decided to take some photos for you guys So here it is, still unfinished:
I'm really happy with the result so far and it's an immense improvement over the old paintjob. The material now actually looks like metal, which is great! But, while plain photos are fun and all, a rundown of what materials are used for what parts is even more fun!
If anyone has any questions concerning certain parts, feel free to ask. The weight of the thing is about 700 grams (about 24 ounces).
And to finish this post: I've got two wires to connect the Hengstler to the two pipes on the ammo-reciever, should I use them or not? They are standard black bendable electrical wires. And as far as weathering is concerned, does anyone have any tips or do's and don'ts?
