thisiskevin Posted December 24, 2015 Author Share Posted December 24, 2015 Thanks Todd! Yep, first step done. Now i need to make sure the copies will be as good as the original. Will post update again here ya. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
DeadMan Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I'm hoping to finish the backtank by the end of january, went to look for some portable smoke gun to install inside the back tank so we can spray some smoke with this. Would love to make one that shoots flame, but i think we'll get in trouble for that I was thinking somewhat along the same line, except I wanted it to shoot bubbles 1 Link to comment

Jeditid[501st] Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 The wait is killing me keep it up Kev ! can't wait to see it ready to rock and roll - !! put me down ! Link to comment
thisiskevin Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 Hi Guys, Terribly sorry for the slow update. We've started on doing the mold, some parts are finished while some are still waiting to dry. we ran out of materials and will have to get more tomorrow. Will try making a prototype out of resin and see if it can be light and durable enough for troops! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment
Myna Sturnidae[TX] Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 This would be a great table display. Link to comment
Klwl[501st] Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 seen this on Facebook looks amazing! Link to comment
thisiskevin Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Another piece done. Still trying to figure out a way to ship the kit to US as well... The price is crazy expensive... Might have to use sea freight :/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Jeditid[501st] Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Looks good, might I suggest you sell the 3D print files etc. If the actual kit is cost prohibitive to ship then at least you can make an income off the work you've done by selling the file?

thisiskevin Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 That is a possibility, but i still cant tell how much it'll exactly cost until i have the first resin kit done and packed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment

thisiskevin Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Sorry for another slow update! Finished the first resin part. I'm using a ship resin so it should be quite flexible and strong 😀 its still a bit rough, i'll clean it up with dremel once i got all the parts Doing major revision on the stock and the front of the flamethrower because i found some inaccuracies so I'm gonna need to print those parts again and make silicone mold again. Heres a video of the stress test as well. I think it should be strong enough for troops ya 😠https://vimeo.com/154884027 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment
toddo[TX] Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I always get so excited with your updates Kevin. Keep them coming. Link to comment
thisiskevin Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 Doing the resin for all the part except the stock (we need to add some details with clay) and the front bit is currently printing 😀 Will post more update once i have more parts finished!
