flamethrower speed build

[dashrazor]

i cranked this one out in an afternoon, i needed a new one fast for an event Friday i just went crazy with the glue gun and threw a ton of greeblies on.. its got parts from a laptop, PlayStation, xerox machine.. and air conditioner

 

 

it has super lound sound, lights, a laser pointer/spotlight and illuminated scope..... but i pretty near destroyed my workshop in the process i miss my old one, but this one will do for now

Incredible, I especially love all the small details. You should seriously consider making these types of props en mass and sell them on the legion boards!

what kinda gun did you start out with ? or is it all from scratch?

normally i use airsoft but i didnt have time to order one, so i used some no name space pistol from Kmart it was the only one that had a grown up size handle (only the handle/trigger section) the stock and barrel are all scratchbuilt, then about 100 glue-sticks later i had a flamethrower

I'm speechless...........Mason, you' a crazy genius!!!

Looks great! I hope to start on mine this weekend. I hope you don't mind if I use some pics of all your flamethrower builds for ideas and reference. If you don't mind me asking, what do you use as the "tube"? What I saw at Lowe's was some pretty thick PVC, and it has me worried about weight.

 

Thanks

I wonder if you could cast that Mason and be able to duplicate the greeblie work on other weapons.

I am pretty sure Mason used a 4" THIN walled pvc tube. You don't want the regular PVC as it is too thick and heavy.

Ask someone for the thin walled stuff. You may have to buy a 10 or 12 ft section though.

i used 3" thin walled PVC, but the thick stuff looks better IMO and you cut away about half the bulk.. but it requires a more heavy duty base weapon

Wow looks great

Have fun at the con bro

Great as always Mason !!

 

I take the opportunity of this topic to ask you guys if you saw that the EIB/Centurion Poll is open for vote for detachement members ? ^^

[Daetrin[Admin]]

You should do this for a living Mason - that's pretty intense and the details really make it pop! Hope you have a great time at your troop

If this was a "speed" build, I'd like to see what you could if you took your time. Sweet MARIA....

Which model Airsoft do you use? I looked at their web site and there are literally 25 pages of similar looking weapons.

I believe Mason is still engaged in some personal issues that prevent him from currently frequenting these boards. (someone please correct me if I am wrong here) However, there may be some threads explaining this in better detail. Especially check the Incinerator section. BTW, I am originally from Ocala, welcome to the FISD fellow Floridian.

That's crazy/incredible! I don't really know what else to say. Wow!

[Teach]

I've said it once... I'll say it again... the talent on FISD is amazing. Imagine what we could do if we could harness all this talent!
