Officer's K blaster (metal build) VIDEO update-page 6

[elilay]

Hi all!
I've made officer's K blaster month or two ago, but since then a lots of amazing new references photo showed up.
OLD MODEL


So I decided to revisit this project.
On tested video Adam Savage examin movie props and I was very glad to see from upclose what is going on when trigger is pulled. So my goal was to replicate that mechanism as best as I can. I made whole new model with 39 seperate pieces ( if I count parts right) so I left space for whole electronics, battery, switches, leds etc.

NEW MODEL (renders)


At this moment model is done and all parts are printed ond SLA printer so details are very nice. And I'm waiting for materials.

I will post photos of my master soon I'm very exited to finish this project. But it's a long way ahead I want make as many parts out of metal as possible so this should be very exciting month

Looking forward to watching this come together. I've got one coming and I would like to try and get the trigger to function like it does int the tested video.

Are you going to CNC or cast metal?

Re: Officer's K blaster (metal build)

Probably mix, but I must check what will be better, I will make few test with some low temp metals at first

Are you going to CNC or cast metal?

I'm really excited to see what you come up with here! Version 1 was already looking pretty awesome

I wouldn't mind one not so complicated.....like your first Version, but made mostly of CNC / Cast Metal.
Just a moving trigger will be cool.opcorn

Re: Officer's K blaster (metal build)

I'm in if this becomes a run!

Question: are all your dimensions based on screen shot scaling, or did you reference a known part, like one of the socket head cap screws?

I had big headache with dimentions but I scaled it through LEDs and it turns out great it's little bit bigger then glock. What most important it's very comfortable to hold.

It's fantastic work - especially the grip, which must have been the hardest to model and iterate. What 3D CAD software are you using?

Watching with great interest. Excellent job.

Dude, you should join PropSummit and start a parallel thread there. Guaranteed captive audience!

Subscribed, will follow.
It's so exciting to see someone replicating the functions of the new blaster (finally). Have you got any ideas for how you're supposed to reload the gun? That was the one thing I really wanted to know about the new blaster, odd that nobody that I know of has yet to theorise the inner workings.

Been hoping someone might tackle this in metal. Can't wait to see more!
