nah you need a blunderbuss to shoot something like 50 half darts or rival balls or something!

@@spongejacobw123 second a blunderbuss loaded with 20 frigging rival battles, that'd be a hoot

I wonder if you could do something like that on a lake in sloops or something

Maybe bring a nerf musket

Well this guy has a pla cannon on his store page

Oh parabellum I love your stuff. Please make an m1 garand

Well you know an updated one.

Thanks - your stuff was a bit of inspiration! I loved seeing YOUR nerf flintlock while I was finishing this up, clearly there is something in the air down here.

@@carnyrex1872 yeah black powder

Genere storia sono bellissimi ciao 😁

I haven't seen a reenactment yet, are they fun or basically like acting for movies and stuff??

@@strikerdoc_4205 Civil War reenactments are meant to teach the public about the issues and realities of Civil War life. The troops fire black powder 'blanks' at each other [loose powder, not even paper wadding] and units 'take hits' to simulate casualties. If they're reenacting a specific battle, units will take casualties in proportion to their historical counterparts. After and between battles, it's common for the camps of the troops to be open for visits by the public, where questions can be entertained. Most battles will include all three major branches [infantry, artillery, and cavalry], and some will include even stranger branches of service. Where I'm at in Washington State, we even have a telegraphy wagon.

UPDATE: Figured it out, still testing things but it works more or less: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4692066 Sadly no - the design does not lend itself well to this without almost doubling the barrel size. I also don't have access to them in Oz. A future version I am planning will be more accommodating for this.

@@anotherbobafett6238 especially back then, as gunpowder weapons in general took a long time to reload. Nowadays. in order to reload one shot rifles, you just need to open the bolt, load the bullet, and close the bolt. Magazines make things a lot easier.

@@grahamturner2640 yeah

It *is* for sale as a kit! www.etsy.com/au/CarnyRex/listing/890326875/carnyrex-flintlock-nerf-blaster-v1-2

@@carnyrex1872 cant find it on etsy. Is it still available as a pattern?

Ytu

Hey there! 1. 60ish hours, very settings dependent! 2. Creality Cr10s Pro, an Ender 3 or similar will still do the job. 3. PLA. PETG will probably work, and I recommend it for the smaller parts anyway.

I need to do one more iteration of this to clean it up for further modification, but after that I'm hoping to extend it to musketoon/carbine/blunderbuss size. If you want something to insert into a wooden stock, there actually already is a pretty mature project for something like that here: github.com/Codezombie23/Community-LARP-Firelock-

ender 3 is pretty solid entry, mind you 3d printing is still a tinkerers toy and not something you can just press go like say a paper printer. expect to spend many hours tweaking and testing to get things working at their best.

I *think* so, you can flip all the parts in your 3d printing utility. The only thing I can think of that might mess with that is all the screw threads being reversed (is that how that would work???), but you could solve that by just using real M5 screws which will ream it back the other way.

The Secret Society of Sinister Southpaws is heard from! [I'm an old SCA fighter lefty myself]

My next step is adding a flintlock mechanism to the new muzzleloader, but unfortunately there is no backwards comparability here :(

19th century wars were pretty shitty. Even shittier before that. I’d much rather fight in the 20th or 21st century. You’d be traveling a lot more anyways in modern conflicts.

@@blitzkrieg6076 but then bayonet charging is pog, dying for your country is honorable (like every era is just as similar as this fact) and armorless tanks with faces

@@guester_blaster2013 that wasn’t really the case anymore during the 19th century. The 19th century saw a lot of improvement in firearms and was therefore the last century to have line battles. Firearms became quick to load and were much more accurate. There may not have been vehicles, but there were still many deadly heavy weapons. Something like a Gatling gun or mitrailleuse could throw out a huge amount of lead and cause a lot of damage. If you really wanted “honorable” warfare, I’d say go back to about the 18th century at the latest, but there were still many deaths just from natural conditions and no technology to fight them. Though, during those times war was more widespread and just a natural part of life for almost everyone.

@@blitzkrieg6076 oof you’re right

Blud a buckshot is for shotguns

never mind- i see somebody already asked that question. Drat. I'll have to see if I can find foam balls of the right diameter.

@@FinnSpeaks Actually it's already been upgraded for that! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jcBxgMSjs67Lmnk.html The files should have some parts marked "rival"

1. You can flip the designs in your printer slicer, several have asked but no one has gotten back to me with results. 2. In due time...

Check out kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jcBxgMSjs67Lmnk.html, it just sorta frictions itself in

The beta is already out: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4692066

@@carnyrex1872 POGGERS

Something like 400-500 grams? It's 60ish hours of printing.

Thanks

uhhh... okay so theoretically yes, all the parts are rigid except the springs, which are imitating the shape of springs that would be steel anyway. However, all the threaded parts will need to be rethreaded post-print, I doubt the tolerances I set up for my FDM printer will transfer well to whatever dream forge you are work with.

Caveat: It's not a shell, it's mostly solid. You will have a steel brick.

This thing is like, 33% thicker than it needs to be. I’m hoping to have a version 2 by next year which cleans that up.

@@carnyrex1872 Looking forward to it!

Check the Etsy product description there is a link to a spreadsheet with all that info per part!

As long as your applications don't involve major shipping lanes around the barbary coast, I'm keen. Check out the etsy page for contact details :)

@@carnyrex1872 I have already purchased your design for a friendly printer of mine to knock out some test versions of. I'm currently working on a modern rule set, based on historical records. Ballistic information from this variable powered item will be instrumental in backing up the safety aspects of this. (and as a side note a double barrelled bad boy would be hysterical). Incidentally what's your intellectual property commission rate per item?

when you go to his etsy shop (link in disc), you can see a picture with all the parts, the parts are small enough to fit a standard 20*20*20cm printer i think

@@Edward-pw6zz Thank you. I am ordering the files.

@@solvarr2 enjoy!!

This should all fit on an 220*220 build plate (Ender 3). If you buy it and it can’t fit on your printer pop me an email (see Store descrip)

Nah just needed to fix a few things. Who is JGCWorker? Do they work for the french?

If you belive the range table, it's probably maxing out a little past the stock blasters? I need to try stronger elastics to know for sure where it ends.

@@carnyrex1872 thanks, I’ll be making one regardless and I’ll probably do some testing of my own with it. Super cold thing you’ve created and I hope to see more stuff from you.
