Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Hi, is there more I need to do? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Mathias spent much of his free time today helping me break our forum software in new and amazingly annoying ways. I'm sure he'll take a peek some time in the Swedish AM (which is soon) Aloha, -Eric Quote
Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Oh and badass RT btw. Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Hello and good morning! I'm glad you like the doopy blaster. The only adjustment I can think of that is an easy fix before I approve you is to raise the belt a bit. If you compare yourself to the cardboard cutout you'll see you're wearing the belt too low. Obviously I'll want picture proof once you've done the cover strips, but since they aren't required yet I'd say that if you move the belt up you're good to go. Quote
MattyJ[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) Hi Mathias, I have adjusted the height of the belt now. EDIT - I just fixed the image so the mirror was flipped to make the orientation correct on the AB plate. Didn't want any confusion!!! Sorry about the photo self portrait. My wife is over taking photos of me now! lol! Thanks Mat Edited September 20, 2012 by MattyJ Quote
MattyJ[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 Oh and badass RT btw. Thanks dude! you've got yourself to blame for it! after all it was your thread that guided me through the nasties... I can't believe it has taken me close to 6 months to get this done. I even purchased all my elastic and velcro from the USA to get exactly what everyone seems to use. You can't get industrial strength stuff in NZ and any shipping from the USA is pure evil no thanks to the Flat Rate system you guys use. I don't need to tell you that though huh? They consider Hawaii outside the USA too lol! Mat Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 While technically still too low, this is mainly an inaccuracy with the kit rather than user error, so I'll let this pass. Approved. Well done Sir! And come back with pictures when you have the cover strips. Quote
MattyJ[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 Thanks and especially for the finer detail help. I plan to keep bettering things as I get clear and precise CORRECT info. Have a good day up there! Cheers Mat Quote
TK5492[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Congratulations! Excellent work with the blaster, and great attitude with the adjustments. Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Congrats, was worth all the work Quote
MattyJ[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 Congratulations! Excellent work with the blaster, and great attitude with the adjustments. Thanks man! I was so excited to be so close after so sooo long working on it I had to nail it bang on. I'm going to keep working on my blaster now to get it as screen accurate as I can. That milling with the dremel was addictive. I wanted to start boring into everything!! I think that section where the folding stock is could have some work done to it too. Do you know if those small fill in sections between the three rods that stick out of the counter box are supposed to be like that or are they there for support during casting? In talking about the rods where the RED wires go into in my blaster pics above in this thread... Thanks for your support along the way! Mat Quote
MattyJ[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 Congrats, was worth all the work Cheers mate. yeah it sure was. So glad I didn't have much to change. The blaster build was actually fun. I now want to fine tune that even more.. Thanks for your support. Mat Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 The hengstler is supposed to look like that. Here's a real one: Quote

I now want to fine tune that even more.. Thanks for your support. Mat Blaster came out really well, you can never stop improving, the more I read the more I learn. Found this is addictive and may be building more. Keep up the good work Quote
Dazauto[TK] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Congrats Mat, welcome to the ranks, great job trooper Mathias, I think Mats number should be 56 as there is already a 55 in the ranks Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 I hate this number system.... Quote
