HALO... skip the WARP

[rukh013]

i'm looking to mount a Halo loader to the side of a TAC 1 body and mod it to feed like a warp (lighter)

http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=3828390&highlight=

what halo loader do i need? rip drive, V35, empire B2, ect...
is there a difference in the shell plastic? i don't want it to shatter
boards/internals? i want to push 15 bps MAX thru ~6" warp tube

i don't know much about Halo's if this is to difficult for this loader is there a better choice under $80 ( not trying to hack up a rotor )

I'm working on this myself right now. I picked up an MM2K9 so unwanted to run it warp left, but I don't have a warp. I tried setting up my Prophecy using copper pipes, but it wouldn't feed consistently, too much friction and weight of the ball stack to push it I think. I didn't want to hack up the Proph either, so I ran it straight out of the bottom. You will need a Reloader B2 (not B). I just picked one up cheap on PBN. You can also use a Halo Too. I'll be following the same guide that TimmyJay posted for the build, then I'm just going to drill a hole in an aluminum bar to mount the hopper.

B2 was the fastest halo style loader built, which i assume means its the most powerful motor setup. you will want that when pushing paint that high up.

A side feeding Halo is called a "Rip Clip".

This is something I've been planning to do for ages. Got most of the parts I need and hope to start building one very soon.

Got a nice RT mag here that this set up would warp nicely into.

no rip clips, trying to move the loader off the gun completely and this is a cheap alternative,

i have a warp but the setup is heavy on one side, plus mags aren't the lightest guns

Is the loaders capacity affected by the mod?

[rukh013]

For the setup I want the loader will push out the "side"

Right before the raceway connects to the feedneck headed down, I'm going to cut and add pipe to push out of the right side, effectively rotating the new feedneck 90* up

Then add warp hose and adapters...




BOOM! lightweight small profile perfect to see over the top of the barrel and great for woodsball when I hide upside down from a tree like some kind of bat ninja

Just started my project tonight. First thing tonight, working on is getting the mount setup. I've got a piece of 1/8" aluminum, drilled a 1" hole using a door lock bit thing. Still needed to take off a little, so I just went around it with a Dremmel until the loader fit. I'll be using a pipe clamp on the feedneck to hold it in place. Next is cutting the bar to fit it properly on the gun.

i just picked up a magna loader, i figured the position of the internals and feedneck will make for a clean final product

Here are some photos of my setup with the warpless mod.

Shooting video? (And don't post a rick roll'd vid)

Here is one...slow trigger finger. I bought this paint from Goodwill for $2.99 a bag. Shot like it too.
