Well, some more info. In my typical fashion, this is a "preemptive post." The second I commit or send money for something, I MUST post up pics, whether mine or not. :)

In this case, the pic of the Splatty is from Vintage Rex, and the "stuff" in the second pic is from a machinist.

Well DeTrevni, I'll tell you. Pure awesome is what it is. Stock Splatties have really craptacular plastic internals.A machinist over on M. Carter Brown replaced the chumtastic plastic with machined aluminum plungers and rails. He also made a custom brass barrel. But the fun doesn't stop there, oh no DeTrevni! He also rigged up Phantom internals, i.e. the body and a cut down power tube, to work in the Splatty! What this means is a buttery smooth junker gun from the mid '80's! I can fine tune the springs and get some great performance out of this thing!

Now DeTrevni, I'm sure you are wondering how much this costs, right?

Well, I'll tell you! I got this for the low, low price of $120!

That's right! I just spent $120 on a $30 gun! Yay me!

I was going to make fun of you . . .then I remembered how much money I have put into a used Hammer pump I bought for $10.

I've always had that mental image of DeTrevni.

I think the DeTrevnis were as well.

And . . . Detrevnis; you butter post pictures as soon as you're done.

Even if the marker is only improved by a small margarine.

If you don't . . . you're toast.

P.S. If the work gets tough and you get into a jam, you can always come to the forum for help.

I bet when he's done, it will be the best thing since sliced bread.  Just don't go off doing it half baked.

It should be for the amount of dough he's putting into it.

I love the idea of a pusher cocking mechanism. It lets me run around the field head-butting or humping it to cock it! Fun will be had!
 
So, uh, what goofy color should I paint it? I'm thinking red and white Hawaiian print.
 
Edit: Toast.

As long as he isn't spreading himself too thin with all his other projects.
