Well, if you're interested in my 98, it's ready to play, right after it is bought. I also forgot to add that the trigger has a much lighter pull because I used a pen spring instead of the stock one. There's probably more, but I'm just forgetting it. Oh yeah, it shoots about 14 bps now.

Sorry for double post, but I had a huge post before :). I'm selling a Tippmann 98 custom. It comes with an expansion chamber, e-trigger installed, new 12" Tippmann Sniper barrel, Viewloader revolution hopper w/ x-board. Hell I'll throw in the 12 oz CO2. I'm selling all this for $250. It is in very n...

Well....where to start. Autocockers are nice guns. They are very accurate (arguably the most accurate on the market), but they require a good paint to barrel match, in order to operate well. This can be acheived by a barrel kit, or searching for paint that fits your stock barrel. Most guns have ball...

He hadn't hardened the catches on the barrels so they wore down. That's why we only heard some of the barrels going off.

Whoops, sorry it's TEAspoons, not TABLEspoons. What is there, 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon? Still not that good. 18.5 min on 5 tablespoons.

I think that a hammer valve would be way cooler. Granted, a piston design would probably enhance performance, a hammer hasn't been made before (to my knowledge). Also, the hammer valve gives the option of blowback also.

I would suggest being careful when extinguishing the flame. Try to have as small as a snuffer as possible, or alcohol vapors begin to build up inside. My pepsi can burner (holes around the edges, open port in the middle) has the same alcohol efficiency as my pressurized jet burner. They both get abo...

Holy ghetto! Nice first combustion though. Next time, I suggest that you use ABS for combustion, and PVC for pneumatic (compressed air powered) cannons. Good luck and welcome to spudding!

Man these are awesome! I never really gave liquid fuel a though because quite a few of the camps I went to as a kid preached that liquid fuel is bad. After I went to the site, I have built every kind of the stoves they have listed (except the "cyclone" stove)! Right now I'm waiting for my pressurize...

It's really not all that dangerous to start a fire with gas. (Thanks people who told me I'm not a retard :lol: ) All you have to do is use a little caution. First, don't dump the gas on, then stand there and let the fumes build up, as this will make a huge fireball, as was already stated by some oth...

I thought about shooting my books with my copper piston marble sniper (gotta post pics of that soon...), but then I noticed the gas can in my garage :twisted: . Two friends and I cumpled up all our papers and made a ...

Holy sh!t, what field do you play at? I gotta go there! $20 for 2000 paintballs? Are you freaking kidding me?!?! My field sells them for $80 for 2000. Luckily my team is sponsored so we get our paint from another shop for about $30 for 2000. We then bring the paint from there to the field (the field...

I personally think that ADD is a load of crap. I have had so many people say that I have ADD, that I've lost count. I simply don't care enough to pay attention to the idiocies spewed by my teachers. I say this simply to argue the validity of ADD tests. I can pay attention if I choose to, or if the s...

You should probably stay away from sharp objects. By the way, the stove is hot, don't touch it. :lol:
