Fin's on Blaster,, Help Please

[shortimer52]

I was wondering what everyone was using for the cooling fin's on the barrel of the blaster. Ive looked and i cant figure it out.

They were rubber windshield wiper fins, the same type people use as grips on their sabers and the fins on the stormtrooper blasters.

One alternative I have used on previois blasters was gluing strips of sintra (sheet plastic) to the barrel to simulate the fins. I suppose the best would be a centimeter (3/8" for you yanks) strip of 2mm sintra topped with a smaller strip of 3 mm sintra creating an inverted "T" shape.

Of course, the preferred thing is to abandon the Fett project, get a DC-15 (aka a real man's gun) and some clone armor and defend the Republic. Then again, I may be biased. 8)
