I'll be getting Kev's animated armor this week and chose to go with the camo version of the ARF trooper. I saw the gatling gun with the action figure and thought that might be a fun project. I also wanted the gun to light up, like it was shooting. I haven't had a lot of time, so it's been slow going, still have a lot of finish work to do, but I'm pleased with the progress so far. The front half will spin from a drill mounted in the back half. It's operated on the drill trigger that will be mounted in the handle. A 3/8" shaft runs down the middle and will be locked into the drill chuck. Front is supported by a ball bearing. I made a little video. Nothing is hooked up except the LED. I'm trying to hold the 2 halves together and spin it a little so you can see how it might look. I'm hoping to mount up all the internals tommorrow.

That thing has some serious wickedness to it.
