TODAY:

WOOHOO!!!!!! GOT MY BOARD IN!!!!!! (only been waiting about 8 months for it)

[druid]

I still have to lengthen the eye wires and battery clip by 8" each but that's easy work............and then get a plastic battery box to mount the 9V in [outside the bow]....and then I can test her with air and see if she works







Board works...lights are green (normal mode) and blue (eyes off mode)





Hard to see in the pic, the plastic button extension to turn the board on and off. The lights DO shine through the clear plastic (venetion blind adjustment stick) to see board status:

where does the hopper go>?

[druid]

Ah.......those pics must have gotten cut out of the OP. Feeds by way of Warp and my Ricolution. I have to change the warp bracket to get it to fit because the original bracket doesn't swivel enough for the project.....here are more pics:

that is the greatest thing I've ever seen!

*edit
any chance of seeing it in action?

from the looks of it, I bet its easier to take apart than a standard ion

Thanks.

Yep...once I get the final wiring done. I have to lengthen the eye wires as well as the 9v leads from the board. Then I have to mount the battery case somewhere under the marker and then I can finally test it with paint and air.

It is...considering I butchered one apart to make this......lmao...

Awesome! I love it. Hey hey, my character on Oblivion for the 360 could use that beast to slay some scamps. I love it dude. I love it. Now you have it down, you can begin to refine it into something even better. Just awesome!!!! Take that Arow Guns. Na just kidding, those are cool too.

From one tinkerer to another well done my friend!

PS. Can't wait to see some video it shooting.

how much does that beastly thing weigh?

[druid]

Thanks Corwin. Radio Shack is closed today, hopefully I can get there tomorrow before work and get the supplies I need to finish her up this week...likely on Friday (my next day off).

how much does that beastly thing weigh?

Well, each of the layers of wood are 3/4" oak. The Oak is completely dry and therfore, very light to begin with. The left and right panels are hollowed out to fit the internals (about half the mass was removed) and the center section is less than 30% of the total area of the plank before modification. Add already light Ion internals (the Evil Pipe is heavier than all other marker parts combined).....

It weighs about as much as my stock A5...or my Proclassic Mag with Hyper frame, 14" PMI Thunderpig barrel AND the warp with a revvi...

Necro Thread:

Ever get this beast up and running?

[druid]

lol...not since I broke my hand. I need to fabricate a bracket for the warp and then just air it up.

Once I get the hand back in working order, I'll get pics/video up

[vf-xx]

Blech... Ok.

Looking forward to seeing it.

[ZapTheMad]

That is one wicked use for an Ion

[snoopay700]

That is awesome, , i think this might inspire me, once i have more money....
