with all do respect maghog

why are "you unable to do a shoot video" of those pieces? just curious that's the deep issue i have inside CURIOUSITY.

[Maghog]

I live in Germany for the past ten years, and all but for my carving, I have left the world of paintball. After having problems with the German authorities about my equipment, I got rid of everything that made paintguns shoot. All that I kept were the aluminum parts to carve.
Gun number 1 belongs to Tom Kaye, so I can't shoot it for you. Before I sent it to him it was working fine though. Guns #2, 4, and 5 are at Mom's in Pennsylvania. 2 got the most use of all of them so far. Fun gun to shoot. 4 as has been said many times, won't get aired up for numerous design issues. 5 never really got running. Everything is in place, but the beautiful paint job by Heather Frymark is prone to chipping. I'd rather not. #3 was made for Steve Davidson, and sent to Florida where after a few weeks of fun, it got stolen. Gone since 2002. 6 and 7 are over here in Europe with me. I don't have anything, and I mean no hoses, air, valves, feeder, fill station, etc. to get them going. Unless I have a greater motivation to get them running besides satisfying a few curious people, I might think about it.

Hill, some people understand what goes into work like this. Only those who try to do it actually know.

Thank You.

I personally think they are pretty amazing. I think #'s 2 and 3 are my fav's. Can't beleive the one was stolen and hasnt shown up in 9+ years. Probably sitting in some landfill or in someones attic. What a waste.

[knownothingmags]

those are awsome pieces of work.
do you do this work still?

[OneSelfLost]

That E-mag.. is just beautiful!!

[wetwrks]

I see no difference between these pieces of artwork:

and the ones shown in the video. They are for the most part functional yet don't have to be used to still have a function...that of being a piece of beauty.

I always enjoy seeing your art sir and I salute you.

Watched the video, and I don't get why anyone would be cross with Dan. Seemed like any advertising video for just about any product in video history. Talk up your product. I liked it, Dan. You showed all the style and sexy of the markers, and even threw in some humor. Keep it up.

And I totally agree, your markers are amazing. I would love to own one, but it would just hand on a wall for fear of damage. Do you do emag triggers? Pm me a quote for one when you get time.

Just wait until you see my E-mag!

Consider me waiting...

Maybe if the unveiling is done as an "unboxing" video it will get a higher approval rating.

agree

I always tell my kids.

Dan has been doing this since before YouTube existed. He's been doing it since before AOL discs started showing up in your mailbox. My guess would be that many of them were started around the time that Yahoo was registered as a domain name... Suffice it to say, this isn't his first rodeo (or super bowl, if that's what you prefer) and he and his work certainly predate internet bragging.

I would guess that the reason his video has so many hilarious comments is tied directly to the large number of PBN kiddies with "Marker Vidz" who he's very effectively trolling

i like it

Well said i like it! especially your closing statement "kiddiz" after all we are still playing a kids game

LOL I'm well with you on that one. We are big children. Some of us hairier than others.

IMHO The #1 marker is not the prettiest thing in the world with that body on it. Prettier than my VM68s though

[river031403]

vm68

man wish i still had my VM! i had it UL milled by taso back in the day in long beach ca, off the 91fwy and downey ave. UL milled and anode metallic blue it was a pretty nice looking vm68 and you know how ugly they are.
