All the items that needed sanded to flush fit the barrel got shaped by me wrapping sandpaper around the rear of the blaster body and rubbing the item along inline
And the results
Used the c section from T-Jays kit to make the rear clip. Was looking for a suitable spring material to make the clip look functional, I knew I had seen a suitable source but for the life of me I could not remember where. Then I remembered, it is the plastic storage/ dispenser for Stanley blades. Took it apart and removed the spring and cut it to size. Here is what I mean

Next up the barrel.
Fake front bolts removed, some of the resin chipped so it’s green stuff to the rescue.
Main barrel holes drilled out
Holes at the end of the t-tracks opened out with the Dremel, the Dremel is really your best friend for building this kit
Fake bolt at the bottom of the grip removed, also removed the fake lock screw detail but do not have photo of this

Well the blaster is nearing completion so between coats of paints I will update my process. Work began with the stock
Through and through detail sorted
Stock hollowed out, as I said before I wanted a functional stock but have opted for semi functional
Made my latching system from the tube from T-Jay, one of those touch screen pens, spring and half a screwfix pencil. I also scratch made a pivot cube. Just needs put together and the addition of a self tapping screw to act as latch

I replaced a ton of parts on my last DD kit with aluminum pieces (including the folding stock, magazine well, front and rear ends, etc,) from a seller on eBay. Everything fit like a glove!
Yes I have seen his stuff but by the time you add shipping and import duties to the U.K. it works out far too expensive. I intend to buy the full kit sometime in the future

I need to resurrect this thread as I got cleared with a Shepperton blaster I get really cheap but last week it had a fatal accident, must get my man cave cleaned up. So as I have my induction troop on the 23rd I have been working hard to get my Doopydoos blaster sorted. Will get some progress pics up later when I get time.

Hi there.
I upgraded my DoopyDoos mag with one from Imperial Warfighters (UK). Whilst I had to do a little bit of repair work on mine, it’s certainly a big step up on the DD.
Mine arrived with a little bit of damage to the front lip. Whilst I could have sent it back, I took it on as a project and corrected the issue with green stufThis mag was under £20 GBP.
Best wishes
Dan :-)
Hi Dan, do you have a link for this mag please?
cheers

Sorry didn’t reply to your clarification earlier, I have been absent for a while.
Yes that little dimple that Dracotrooper highlighted was what I tried to describe. Looking at your progress I really need to get my but in gear and get some work done on mine my trouble is I don’t know how far I want to MOD mine. Keep up the good work it looks great.

Nice build you have going on here. Just one thing I have spotted, you have not filled in the duvet on the side of the magazin. This is from DD moulding from the end of a whole mag, where as the blaster mags where cut down and would not have this detail.

Hi Chris, any updates to this piece of art?

Thanks mate! Good to know it's been even a little inspiring haha
The folding stock I got from apexgunparts. A quick Google for the l3a2 sterling folding stock should pull it up near the top of the list. It was pretty cheap really, think about $40. I don't know where you're based, but they only deliver in the US, and can only be purchased with a US registered card. Luckily I have a friend in the states who paid, got it delivered, then forwarded it to me using "costume accessory" for the customs declaration. A bit of effort, but well worth it, easily one of my favourite additions!
Sorry for the late reply by the way, Tapatalk didn't seem to notify me of the message...

Thanks for the info, yes I had been on the Apex site and found out that they would not ship to here, bugger.
nice job on final assembly you blaster really looks the part.
One minor observation though, considering the awesome work you have done, your mag is missing the little clip at the rear. I can’t find any post from anyone selling these, I have some sheet alli in my shed that I may have a go at making one if I can’t find one prior to completing my blaster. But would much rather find someone with more skill than me that has one for sale LOL

and
Kristin@warmachineinc.comThanks for the links Chris. My basket is now very expensive, before I complete the order can you add the rear cap to your war machine website so I only have to pay for one lot of shipping instead of going through WM and Ebay?

Great work on this blaster Tom, it has given me the urge to start back on mine, well tomorrow maybe.
One question, where did you get the folding stock from?
keep up the good work I am watching how you get on to give me some tips.

Fundraising help request
in Off Topic
Posted
I have been growing my hair for two years to donate it to the Little Princess Trust who make real hair wigs for children with cancer. I now have the required length to make the donation and will be getting it cut this month. However as with the COVID restrictions stopping any sort of trooping/charity fundraising I am going to get my beard and head shaved after the donation to raise funds for the Macmillan cancer nurses trust.
So if you want to see me change from looking like Chewie to looking like Yoda while raising funds for a great charity please donate using the link below.
