It came in the mail today :D

Thanks Gideon!

Yep it's Clare's Body! Well I planned on making Themed paintball markers for fun.

This will be the Clare edition, I plan on another for Tom K. and so on....

So take a good look now because you won't recognize it by the time I'm finished.

Yes paint magnet that would be 4 markers, so far!

Basically I want to do for Themed markers what the Orange County Choppers has done :)

Except mine with have more art and engraving work done to them ;) Some will be airbrushed but most will be engraved.

Gideon, geez I just got it, give me a few.

Anyhoo if you don't know I am getting a CNC Mill by the end of the month, so I am going to be making some really awesome projects.


Clare's "Body" will be sporting a bunch of those new toys!

So you have to give me a little time before the "unveiling" I have to learn the machine and such :)

You'll be able to purchase all of the new trinkets that will be avalable on the KITT-E as I call it.

Since you asked I tell you a little of what I'm going to do...


Well I have to get a barrel, grip frame, rail, trigger and battery pack.


I won't be painting this one, but there will be my artwork on it.

It will have custom metal grips that I will be making with my mill, an engraved battery pack, custom jewels, custom "old style" barrel plug, maybe a custom drop and sight rail ( I have to see how good I am with the mill).

It will also have other goodies as well, such as Clare's favorite color... a splash of Amethyst gem stones, maybe a few small diamonds. Who knows...I'll just call it as I make it.

By the way, Mrs. Frymark, how long did it take you to polish that body? And what did you use (I'm guessing metal polish and buffing wheel?)

JEDI
03-19-2004, 08:17 PM
Huh huh.... buffing wheel!

YOU CANT STOP ME!!! :D

The Frymarker
03-20-2004, 05:57 AM
Hehe I'll let you know my secret....


Depending on how scratch the body is, Clare's body wasn't that scratch it had some surface scratches, and a couple of dings which I'm leaving there, it shows that she used it.


But all I did was use Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish, go figure MAG polish...hehe

I used a rag rubbed it in until it turns back than I wiped with a clean rag, no buffing wheel, but you could use one if you wanted to.


For Aluminum bodies that are really scratched I use 300 grit to 2500 grit sand paper slowly going up each grade, then I polish with Mother's, I also use something called NICSAND 10,000 grit polish, I use this for plastics when polishing it give them a nice shine and that comes with it's own buffing wheel. You can use NICSAND for just about anything though.

HAPPY POLISHING :)

No, unfortunately I don't have an X valve. Well, not that that's a bad thing, because I kind of prefer the SS one, which brings me to the fact that I don't even have a SS ReTro valve...what were we talking about again? :confused: :D

On the note of miscellaneous crap aquired whilst rummaging through gear bag, I have found and am willing to donate:

- A half full bottle of Gold Cup Oil...I could probably think of more jokes along those lines but I'll leave that to your imagination ;)

- A Dye barrel plug (okay, so it's a generic one but I wrote "Dye" on it with a Sharpie marker so that makes it cool)

- A 4" piece of macroline - you should never use macroline on a paintball marker...but if you cut it up into lots of little pieces and then string them on a piece of wire you can make a necklace! Or a bracelet! Or an anklet, wall decoration, hood ornament...um it would look really cool if it I had a color other than black but I'm too cheap to buy colored macroline

- A roll of duck tape - wait, nevermind, that "roll" is holding my hopper together. My hopper has a Dye sticker on it though so it's still cool. Well, part of a Dye sticker, the other part came off when I melted the shells for the warp hose...using a screwdriver and a candle that smelled like roses with melting plastic goo...and 1/4 of the remaining part is covered with duck tape but if you look really hard and try to ignore the fact that it smells like something died in there, you can kind of see that it's a Dye sticker. *edit* - Clare, you may have my duck tape if you really want it.

*spots something shiny* Oooh, gotta go! :D

The Frymarker

Uhhhh actually if you want to donate the barrel plug I can use it :D

I need to mold the bottom half for the new barrel plugs I am going to make and I just want to make sure I have the size correct.

paint magnet
04-03-2004, 08:23 PM
Gideon - Nope, still got the Viking. I couldn't bear to part with it after all :) I can't imagine why you'd be hoping I had gotten rid of it :D

Regarding the safety (or lack thereof)It doesn't need a working safety. It had a working safety, and I took it off :) You'd be surprised though, I don't think I've ever shot it without meaning to (with barrel bag on, of course) more than once or twice...much less than I used to do with the safety installed. There are actually two reasons for not having it:

1. It got in the way, the Benchmark safety is rather wierd. This caused me to activate it without meaning to during a game, especially while shooting left handed.

2. Not having a safety makes you keep your finger off the trigger. I've seen people walk around holding the trigger on their gun (Personman did it at SCAO2 and got goop in his barrel right before a game) and they shoot the gun without meaning to. And I'm sure you've seen countless little kids with Spyders or rentals and such blow the barrel plug out of the end of their barrel and say "Whoops, I thought the safety was on!" Guess what? If you don't have a safety then you learn to keep your finger off the trigger ;) (which you should do anyway, this just forces you to do it)

When I loan my gun out to people, I make sure to tell them that there isn't any safety and the gun is capable of firing the second it's gassed up. This makes them handle it very carefully (again, as they should be doing anyway. Being familiar with firearms reinforces this, i.e., treat every gun as if it was loaded, don't rely on the safety, etc)

BTW, many electros don't have safeties either. The Viking, LED Angels, Angel Speed, Bushmasters, etc. all don't have them, just an on/off switch.

Heather- You can have the barrel plug, if you're going to use it as a mold I'll just give you another one instead of my super-cool Dye one :p :cool: By the way, are you looking to fashion a barrel plug with o-rings or an o-ring-less design? Most of mine have notches for orings, but I usually end up removing some of them or replacing them with smaller O.D. ones b/c they fit too tightly in the barrel. (That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it could scratch up the inside of your barrel...and then there was this one time a guy tripped and fell with a plug in his gun, barrel went into the dirt and snapped off the end of the plug, leaving him with a somewhat permanantly plugged barrel. It would have been much easier to get out if it didn't have as much tension on it.) I have a Brass Eagle one that doesn't use orings, but the thing is so huge the only thing it would fit in was my stock Phantom barrel (it barely goes in my .695 AA if you shove it, and it nearly fell out of the Phantom barrel. Yeah, that could have been why my efficiency was that of a semi :rolleyes: )

The Action Figure
04-03-2004, 08:48 PM
good Idea paintmagnet, Im confident that people are alot more careful using the gun w/o the safety. Glad to hear you kept the viking. let me know if you plan on sellin it, maybe next time you will be on the recieving end.

The Frymarker
04-04-2004, 07:01 AM
Hey paint thanks for the tips :)


Yes it will have orings so not to scratch the inside of the barrel.

I will be able to take the same design and make rubber and plastic barrel plugs if no one wants the pewter.

Add: Now thinking about it I think I might make the pewter barrel plug with the bottom insert piece rubber dipped to protect the barrel

paint magnet
04-04-2004, 09:50 AM
Drilling a hole down the center of it (so that air vents out the end of the plug) really helps too. Depending on how much porting your barrel has and what kind of paint you're shooting, a ball may even stop against the plug and not bust since the air is vented.

Usually it breaks anyway, but it is a little safer since it will sometimes stay in the barrel and withstand maybe 2 or 3 hits before it gets knocked out instead of just one.

If you make some with the AGD or AO logo, put me down for a couple :)

*edit* The plugs that come with Tippmann markers have the following cool but semi-useless features:

- tank oring holder
- ergonomic design
- a notch in the end that is supposed to aid with removing goggle lenses...it *might* help with JT lenses but it looks like it would scratch them up a lot

The Frymarker
04-04-2004, 03:19 PM
Ahh Cool,

Maybe scan it in for me?

I wanted to purchase some screws and such but I have no idea what the names of the parts are and where they go at this point....I am kind of going into this blind since I have never owned an emag before.


Thanks in advance for your help :)

Awesome thank you so much!


I should have some pics posted soon of the parts polished.

I am going to do my best to have it ready for Shatnerball.

I still have some more to do to it, I have to engrave the trigger frame, add some precious stones to where the screw holes are for the sight rail, electropate gold a few little parts, make some special medalions and barrel plug for it, grips, and I should be finished. I am hoping to get at least the cosmetic parts finished by Shatnerball.

Enjoy!

Wow, that's one sexy trigger...

I think you're beginning to surpass TraXer as Clare's biggest fan/stalker :D

Hey, what if the KITT-E had a pair of LED "cat eyes" in the grip frame, maybe mounted inside a evil looking cat face...that would glow yellow when the gun is on, and flash red when it's fired! That would look sweet, especially with custom Frymark grips :) It might give little Japanese children seizures though, from all the rapid blinking if you put it in Hybrid mode :eek: :D

*edit* mounting the 'eyes' inside a picture of Clare's face would look cool too...maybe the cat would be a better idea though, it might look like the elves had posessed her if you did that.

BTW, do you mind me asking how much all this is going to cost? I mean, with the gold electroplated trigger, precious stones mounted in the grip frame, custom medallions and everything, it's got to be getting pretty expensive.

*edit again* It's honoring Clare though, so I'm sure it's worth it ;)

:D :p :D

Atleast I still have the honor of having the first edition 45 Clare grips, and one of the first Clare drawings as well as an autographed Clare Poster and Autographed Clare card which I had laminated. Sooo...

:p:p:p:p

HAHA LOL

I guess that would make me Clare's #1 stalker huh???

Damn just when I though I had everything all planned, you just had to throw that idea in there didn't you!!!


I like that idea, maybe I'll make the right panel the way I was going to originally design it, (gold plated with a pic of Clare over laying it) and the left panel clear so a light can shine through!

Hmmmmmm me thinks

The price tag, well I'm just writing things down as I go along, and keeping track of money spent and time put in.

When it is finished I should have a tally.

You know what I just realized that would look kinda cool Heather? You if can... try to make the body rail C&C into a stretched out cat in 'pounce' stance.

It might not work at all, but it would be really cool to see, if it worked. Just a thought.

Oh, are you gonna have Clare sign it it when it's done? Cause then you would just triple the value of it, LOL!!!

Yes, but remember, while you may own the first edition 45 Clare grips and a Clare drawing, Heather actually made them :D

*edit* I forgot who did this, (RobAGD maybe?) but someone a while back bought a Jaguar hood ornament (the one with the leaping cat) off Ebay and made a drop foward out of it. While it might not be very sturdy, it would certainly complement the Kitt-E very nicely. I like TraXer's idea of the leaping cat rail too, and maybe have Clare's signature laser engraved on the valve or body...

Well too late for that I already hammered it


It will have a raised embossed signature on it from Clare :D

Hehe this is true ;)

Actually I think AGDBrad made it and it went to Jon Nixon, I remember making him British Flag grips for it.

I was already thinking of making a drop some what like that. I don't know it will depend on my handy skills.
