Much fuss was made in
my pico BBMG thread about the fact that the tiny 1mm BBs I was using as ammunition were intended for the less than manly practice of nail art.
In these past few days I've been experimenting with a lot of different configurations and
going through a lot of ammo, so I thought it would be best to stock up, and ordered another 300 grams worth (peach, to match my copper coloured 0.177" BBs

), which arrived today.
Imagine my horror when I discovered that the suppliers had kindly included a free gift with the package!

So that's how it works!
As to Jack, please don't leave us for two bags of BB's and some pathetic tools to put them to use.
Edit: make that three bags of BB's

Now, just make a video of you applying those BBs to the nails... at a good few hundred feet per second, and post it on that nail art forum you discovered.
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.

For maximum effect, do it under the guise of an 'automatic applicator', and also admit that it's got a few bugs left to iron out

Only professionals can go through so many nail art balls in such a short time!

Now, if she comes out of the kitchen.... simply shorten the leash.... and she should stay there. Always works for me./
Sarcastically sexist comments aside...That is a piece of metal that you shot with those 1mm bbs? Looks like it has a bloody nasty rash.

It's an opened up beer can after a couple of quick bursts, the rate of fire is something else.
