Not bad, but you definately need to get your hands on adremel and clean a few things up. Sounds like youhave a decent plan for it. Keep us updated.

Real action paintball makes 12 adapters that hold 2 12 gram canisters and small 30-100 gram tanks. I would like to get a 90* fitting and put it directly into the powertube, put the asa right there and run the small tank directly under the barrel of the gun going outward. If you still dont get it I will see if i I can try to illustrate it in paint when i get home. I am going to see if someone will get me a dremel for christmas and if not I will buy one and probably finish up during time off from school. So another 2 weeks and it should be done. |

 So I promised you an update a while ago but never got around to finishing up this project. There is currently some jb weld curing on it filling in mistakes I made before I had any clue what I was doing. Tomorrow I am going to grind and sand the jb weld and it will probably be good for a coat of primer or 2. Eventually it will be Painted with a hammered gold/copper is color with the letter CTC going down the side where Tippmann lettering used to be What do you all think so far? I think that the gun looks much better than it did when it was painted black. Anyone have any other idea for it before i start painting? |

The flash on th e camera made it come out a little weird, plus after another coat or two it will even out. It is a "hammered" paint so it will have some interesting texture.

Ahh, I've seen that stuff. Basically forces the paint to make a random "orange peel" effect that you get if you accidentally leave some oil on the base coat or use incompatible types (spray enamel with spray lacquer, etc). |
