  1. Decided instead of filling the holes, I carved out the remaining bits, found an old MagLite that didn't work anymore...and used the barrel for part of the folding stock. Did a few other minor bits. Can't use the Dremel now cos its too late...so tomorrow a bit more cleaning up and hopefully first few coats of paint. Waiting on scope rail to arrive to attach the rest. Any ideas of how to find/make the correct sized spring?
  2. Ahhhh....ok. Thanks! Will fix before paint.
  3. Yeah that would be great! I think I need some excess ABS peices if you have them. I think my armor will be another week to 10 days away...so I'll have some time to get the blaster ready.
  4. I have an AP armour kit on the way along with all the other bits I need to complete a TK suit - except the boots. The first of the many boxes arrived early this morning - The blaster! Spent all morning figuring and marking out where all the parts went. Then to the Dremel and file kit to finish some details off the moulds. Drilled holes, cut out bits. A few more small parts to file and fit and I need to figure out what to do about the rail. The deeper I dug into modifying the gun, the more I realised that there is no realistic limit. So I opted to go with what I was able to do without too much talent seeing this is my first build of anything Star Wars related. (xept for LEGO). Gotta get the screw heads cut next to replace all the moulded ones - on the tip of the nozzle, ends of the scope. Couple on the handle. Maybe some screws for the swing arm if I can find the correct ones. Am I on the right track? Any advice would be great!
  5. Ive asked this before, but Ill ask again. Does anyone use 'Shoe Goo'...? From what I've been researching, E6000 dries to the same consistency and strength as Shoe Goo does. Like a silicone type hardness. And you can peel it off pretty cleanly depending on the surface once cured if necessary. Ive been trying all week all over Melbourne to find E6000, but no one seems to have heard of it. Im sure there is an easily obtainable substitute for Aussies....
