Beautiful!!! I've loved that blaster ever since I saw it on Clone Wars. So, where's the ARC armor to go with it? ;)
 
The PVC endcap, were the holes for the barrels pre-drilled? Like, was it originally a drain cover?

If not, I can't imagine it was easy to drill holes for 6 barrels in two caps and have them all align correctly.

It was a little bit tricky with the holes ! I put a sheet of paper in the Endcaps an mark it with a pen, so that I had the mesurments. Than I use a pice from the barrel und try to find out the best distence between the barrels. Lousy Job! After that I scan the template ito my PC an print it on sticker paper.

Drilling the holes was easy

Very nice! My solution for a minigun I made a few years ago was not to cut holes through the end-cap. Instead, the barrels are wood doweling screwed onto the cap, then the barrel ends are short slices of copper pipe glued directly onto the end. Not as nice as yours, but it did the job! (and yes, I know the endo face doesn't really line up properly!).

I like you Gatling Gun....looks good ! :thumbsup
I think, it give so many different ways to come to the goal. And even if it looks then as in the movie... everything is fine.

Next time I´m coming to your place i´ll take it with me.
