from one "scratch built blaster builder" to another, I think it looks fan-bloody-tastic.

What did you use as the basis of it??

I used multiple odds and ends. The main tube is PVC. THe rings that hold the scope on are actually PVC connectors that I cut to size. The "MPP" is a sink drain pipe that I cut and filed.

Towards the back of the gun, I guess the flared section, is from Sintra (and let me tell you, it was a pain to form). The gun itself is a crosman Air Pellet Gun. Interestngly enough, when my wife bought it for me, it came with combat grips. I found some website (the name eludes me at the moment) and they had older style crosman grips. It came in black and I simply painted it bronze. As for the stock, cut and carved by Moi and stained. Finally, the connector is made of wood, very finely sanded, then painted with Aluminum and black. TADA!!!

See ya
Duh!

All of the sets of blocks have now been sold.

I don't plan on getting any more in, unless there's a large order (at least 20x sets).

Thanks to everyone who bought them, I hope to see lots of ESB BlasTech rifles on the board!

Doh!

I've seen a few on Tyco's site that are pretty close though.

I smell hardware blocks...

Cool! Man, I love it! It is really turning out cool looking and I bet the weight is pretty light too, huh? Just right for trooping.

Thanks guys:D

It is really light. Just right for trooping. The heaviest thing is the barrel and that's not even a pound. I forgot to mention what I used to glue the pieces together. I used super glue. Works great. I thought at first that it would dry to fast and I mite get them positioned wrong. But it turned out that it was pretty easy to get the layers lined up without fault. But I did get super glue all over my hands. But it wares of in a day plus I use sand paper to get it off my fingers witch takes it off pretty well.:D
