I gave up on the Colab Channel. They did like 4 videos and 2 of them were War footage. But I digress... this was an awesome how-to video. Once my new workshop is set up I think I will be giving homemades a shot, and will be using this as a guide for catches.
I sent them this in March or something, as evidenced by my lack of beard. If you want to make the catch, just use a hole saw. They are like 15 bucks and it cuts down the fabrication time from like 60-90 minutes of cutting and filing to like 5 minutes of just drilling through the polycarbonate. It's really that drastic.
Could you use cutting board for this or does it have to be polycarb/acrylic? I don't really want to use polycarb because the store I work at only sells polycarb that thick in the biggest sheets, for some money I wouldn't like to spend. Any material substitute suggestions would be appreciated, because I only have access to so much
You know I wonder if it would be more effective to get a Dremel, put it in a vice, secure your part on the Dremel and put the file against it. Kind of like a miniature lathe.
+Aeromech Hi so i know how to build one but i still dont know how the trigger works D: Can you explain that a little bit more, maybe you can post a video where you completly build one :D
Sorry everyone, the collaboration channel crashed pretty hard. We had only 5 video submissions and after a week, almost the whole moderation team quit. If anyone would like to take over, contact HeWhoMods on Nerfhaven, he's not as active but he still checks the forums and youtube realm.
Both are good options. RS is easier to mod, just double up on the batteries and you're set. If you don't mind spending a little extra time on modding a Stampede, then just use that and save your money. I have a ton of Stampede videos if you want some ideas, and many other guys also like them. Look around and make something awesome.
Omg I've been looking so long for a vidio like this thank you so much I'm going to the McMaster right now to buy some polycarbonate and the screws and the tube and the rod then I'll make the Handel out of some scrap wood just thx again
i understand everything except how the spring on the catch works

archangel2014 I prefer to use a scroll saw, it does it all when combined with a drill for the internal cuts.
will this work with a drimmel tool?

What thickness polycarbonate did you use
Looks like a quarter inch maybe

A spring goes on the screw that he put on the end of the catch

3:34- halo BR noise? Sounds like it to me
Could you use a hole saw drill bit
why is it called a rainbow catch if there's no color?
It was designed by the venerable "Rainbow clan."
