Thanks. I am trying to do this as simply as possible. I think my total cost of electronics is under ten bucks. But 60 hours of “fun” trying to figure it out. In the end I want the bolt to be able to be pulled back.

Trial assembly and placement for electronics.

Setting the placement on the scope rail.

This morning I started installing the sound cards in the Blue Snaggletooth Hengstler. Perfect fit. All I gotta do now is trim wires for the connection to the power source. I hot glued the number cylinder and the sound boards so they stay put

I have a blue snaggletooth fake hengslter amd thought about using this one for the sounds cards. I gutted it. Dermeled out some of the metal. The cards fit easily into this. Thoughts? Which one to use? I am leaning to the blue snaggletooth

Amazing work

Nope,not a hijacking. Your Tramp is simply amazing. I will be buying your blast fx and scope reticle to put in Chris’s (Fieldmarshall) kit when it is in production. I had the pleasure of visiting Chris at his shop in South Carolina. Super nice dude. The work you did with Brian (bullhdogProps) on fitting the scope OLED in the hollow resin M38. Wow!!!! I was following the progress. I am glad to support you and your products.

I am now looking at putting the sound cards in the Hengslter. I hollowed out the back side and it fits the cards perfectly. I did dremel out a hole all the way through .... oops. now a little green stuff can’t fix.

The “silent second” in action. Thanks Tino

Today I was able to get a clean recording of the stun and fire. It was so easy. You wouldn't believe where I found the sounds. Starwars.com They have a soundboard control page where you can listen to several different Star Wars sounds. drag and drop the sound into their soundboard and record with the ICD1820... too easy. I now have the "silent second" suggested by Tino. http://www.starwars.com/games-apps/star-wars-soundboard

Thanks for the idea. I will try it

I have been playing around with the recording and cannot get a clean “silent second”. Gotta find another sound file to record. The one I have has noise immediately following both the stun and blast. I might have to load an audrino chip..... but I really have no experience with them.

Thanks. There is a small amp chip to get it good and loud. Made my cat jump. Lol

Thanks for the”silent second” idea. I will re record

Sound cards work.

Thanks Tino. It’s been fun working on it again. The light stays active as long as the trigger is pulled. I was trying to figure out an easy way for it to cycle. Maybe a 555 timer chip. But where to put it?

Here is a pic of the barrel (10mm hollow aluminium tube) and the chamber. Just as before with the 2.54 jst I rigged the 1.25 jst and RBG LED (with 12 ohm resistor) and sealed in resin. The trigger wires are the power in. Two power outs. One to the RBG in the barrel and the other will be to the sound cards. Now I just gotta paint it black

Here is a link to YouTube. Lights and selector working. Now onto the sound card install.

I have been so busy with work that I have not been able to work on this Blaster. A few quick updates. I changed the battery to 2 Lithium ion 3.7 volt batteries. They are the same size as AAA. I am running them in parallel to keep the volts the same bit increase Mah. I also switched out the 2.54 wires for 1.25 micro jst 3 wire. A lot smaller and easier to handle.

I should go ahead and start direct deposit to you. Great work

Amazing work on the Hengslter. Can’t wait own this myself

This E-11 just gets better and better. Amazing work

Looks like you are off to a great start. I will be following

Awesome. I can't wait to have this in hand.

Chris your blaster parts are by far the best out there. I can not wait until all your parts are in production. Keep up the good work. It it is a lot of fun combining different kits to build a blaster that will fit easy to find electronics.
