    Posted: 15 October 2004 at 11:15pm




So yeah, I got bored tonight and fired up SOLIDWorks and started redesigning a Tippmann Model 98 Custom body. Keep in mind that this is just a rough design. But it does a darn good job showing just how I want to reposition the reg and grip frame. We did a bit of a mock-up on one of these already and the Tippmann actually ended up being as compact as the new Shockers!!!

But yeah, once I get the time I am going to finish up the detail work, write the CNC code for it and fire one out for testing. And of course this design right now is for an E-bolted gun. Later after validating that this works, I will put in the extra work to design a fully mechanical body.

very nice work, but i have to say that the body extends too far off the back of the grip, it reminds me of the old shoe box shockers, i owuld chop some material off of the back...great job tho bro

Heh, 3D renders are for sissies who can't hack it out with CAD and machine code. Just kidding.

What program uses .3ds extensions, because I have this long list of exportable files, but I am not seeing .3ds?

Ummmmmm, you can't chop that material off the back end. That's where the back bolt/ram assembly will go.

Plus I like it that way, it will be like a nice meaty snatch grip.

Workplanes? What problem are you having with them. In the three CAD programs that I have leanred they were all defined by just either clicking on one or defining it by selecting it from a menu.

How do you plan to implement the sear? I'd imagine changing the position that much would have an effect on trigger pull, unless you're planning on making it electro.

I second that. That is a really nice looking design. I really like evil's too. Good luck to both of you!

My initial plan is to put an E-Bolt in there. I can mill out channels for the air lines, so they run through the gun nice and clean. That is all dependent on me picking up the E-Bolt that I have been looking for.

I also have a few ideas of how to make a sear tripper work in there. I will have to sit down and work through some push rod setups though.

Thanks for all the responses. If I get bored again I will mock up a barrel, reg and whatever else I feel needs to go on there and take a few pictures.
