[h=5]Haven't had access to my full workroom available for a bit... and have gotten antsy - so have been doing the 20-minute build something out of "found items" routine... so using household junk and some spit and tape... made some Classic original Series Dr. McCoy Hypo Sprays (futuristic shots). Used acrylic tubes and pill bottle caps for the main body. To give it the "hypodermic needle" type action - the telescoping rod with the medicine vial is run through a series of washers inside the tube to make it pull back straight... and a rubber stopper affixed to the end creates the vacuum inside the tube which gives it the "shot plunger action." The T-Bar is just scrap wood. And since I had no tools where I am to cut intricate patterns in either wood or metal - the front "injector" assembly is actually some soda can pop tops affixed to a metal framework and run into a tube... Then the whole thing was covered in a $5 roll of Chrome auto fender Tape to give it the metallic look...[/h]
So, having gone a few months without having a chance to make things the way I normally do or stretch the creative muscles - I found that by spending quick breaks from life doing these kind of half hour mini-projects is quite the stress reliever... and the fact that everything needed is literally just laying around...
