I’m really glad you continued working on this! It’s lookin good. I do think you’ve gone major overkill on the threaded rods and bungee cord. My suggestion is the 10-32 rod that’s pretty standard for nerf stuff and hair ties for the bungee. Specifically silicone hair ties! They work great and don’t fray. That thing is definitely capable of much more. Probably at least 200 fps.
Thank you it was a fun project! Dang using hair ties is genius, since I started working I got to used to going to the store instead of thinking of what’s lying around the house lol
Because this video was terrible quality, that's why only 200-ish subs. No blaster action was actually shown, only flying darts and random measurements.
@@apollolux What were you expecting from a video like this? The math and process around the making of the blaster is the whole point of these videos and I personally find that extremely entertaining. The quality of the video was exceptional for only 200-ish subs because it was fully edited with high quality for a decent length of video. I'd like to see you try producing something of this quality if it's so bad. the "random measurements" were cool info too. you clearly just aren't smart enough to watch this video type so go away
@@bread6851 I was expecting the video to show _the blaster_ making a shot. Even _a single fking shot_ so there was no doubt the darts fired came from it and not some other off-screen blaster. No such footage was to be found. That's all I wanted and frankly the only thing I expected to see in such a video that _wasn't_ shown. I know how to math. I expect measurements to have a point of reference to work from (in this case, CLEAR FOOTAGE OF THE BLASTER SHOOTING THE FCKING DART). You clearly have such low standards to accept such a poorly directed video regardless of whether it has a build montage or speed or distance "calculations" that are ultimately meaningless without the necessary footage to refer to.
this video exists assuming that 3d printed blasters dont exist (ie caliburn, talonclaw), but i like this as like an alternate universe version of 3d printed nerf blaster development. if you get better at this i believe you could contribute some really cool designs for the community and also any hobby nerf content is cool. p.s. most 3d printed blasters usually have print settings of 5 walls and 15% cubic infill which is usually strong enough
Thank you! Caliburn and talonclaw are sweet examples, and I have def used them for inspiration lol. Damn, maybe the print settings is where I messed up before, I used 4 walls and 25% gyroid infill :)
Your style of video is perfect. You just need half-length ones and do an accuracy test with individual plastic cups or soda cans. When you make a cup-pyramid you aren't really showing the accuracy, the target is way too big.
No it's not, this video didn't show _the blaster in action_ at all, just darts flying from no source and random measurements. He needs to take better quality video footage first.
3:16 theres a guy called leedle dynamics who makes bungee cord blasters. literally all you need is pla bungee cord and darts. his blasters are basically in your house rn.
Your choice of video clips to use to demonstrate this prototype is terrible. This version of the video does not have a single, clear visible clip showing _the blaster in action._ You showed darts hitting targets without showing them coming from the prototype, you paused the video to show calculations without having any visible shot taken place instead of showing a shot _then_ pausing the video, you blurred the video during a time that should've been focused exclusively on demonstrating the prototype, and then you show random measurements in some parking lot with no reference point as if those distances mean something. SHOW THE FCKING BLASTER IN ACTION.
@@AlbertShares Another comment pointed out a specific timecode, the wide-angle view where you target the Nike box and make the speed calculations, as one that shows an actual shot (the "paused to show calculations" point I made in my original comment). On 0.5x speed rewatch, it looks like the box moved during this sequence, so I will concede that a dart was fired from the blaster. I would like to request that in the future you make targets for wide-angle shots like this (or pretty much any footage) lighter or otherwise more visibly reactive to getting hit by a dart, maybe a cardstock paper clipped to a tripod or pole or something that can wave around like a flag after getting hit.
Half length darts for accuracy.

how on earth does this guy only have 227 subs
maybe I'll have 228 one day 😂
@@AlbertShares try 268

You also should by worker gen 3 darts too
Haha will definitely give those a shot

Haha yeah was more for fun, that's a great way to test accuracy for sure!

@@apollolux Sure. I guess that would be better. But it is pretty smooth overall.
nice to see a second try at this nerf gun. adapt overcome engineer =)
thanks man, it was fun :)
If you want a good and cheap 3d printed blaster then try the Out Of Darts Little Rocket
Lol looks funky

No way! Love that simplicity!
4:45, you should measure power with barrel velocity in feet per second with a chronograph.
A chronograph would be a cool addition
Bruh I need one, we can start an armory
let's goooo lol
this is so underrated
Thanks, really appreciate it 🙏
new sub!
