Customize a Nerf blaster // How-To | I Like To Make Stuff
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
See how I customize my Nerf Strongarm blaster with paint weathering and a simple LED strip. as a baby step towards prop making.
DETAILS: www.iliketomakestuff.com/custo...
Special thanks to William Morales for his support on Patreon! He made this video possible!!
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
amzn.to/1Envvvc - Nerf N-Strike Elite: Strongarm Blaster
amzn.to/1EnvzLx - Apoxie Sculpt
amzn.to/1Jr0Zjf - LED strip
amzn.to/1Enwqf2 - 2xAA power inverter
amzn.to/1hPae3X - Dremel tool
amzn.to/1PXBTL0 - Metallic silver spray paint
amzn.to/1Jr0buB - Metallic dark gray spray paint
amzn.to/1Jr0vJK - Gray primer spray paint
amzn.to/1PXBZSY - Acrylic model paint set
amzn.to/1P9bHN6 - Soldering iron
amzn.to/1IoZAZL - Multimeter
amzn.to/1hm39qY - Wire strippers (not the ones I have, but good ones)
amzn.to/1eVTjKG - Thin solder
amzn.to/1IoZ2TG - Solder tip cleaner
amzn.to/1DxuSyA - Tekton Precision Screw driver kit
amzn.to/1DtOnsn - Fiskars cutting mat
To be fair, I started with the same blaster that my kids each have :)
The gun comes apart very easily, with a precision screw driver.
There are lots of small springs and screws inside. Be sure to take photos of everything before disassembling.
I used a Dremel tool to sand off all of the names, logos and warnings.
Then I smoothed out the surfaces (kind of) with a sanding block.
I laid all of the parts out to paint.
I used a gray primer made for plastics, for the first layer.
Then I put down two coats of metallic silver spray paint. Some pieces were black instead.
After the paint was all dry, I started the first layer of detailing.
As a first pass, I pushed acrylic flat black paint down into the recesses of the surface, and wiped away the excess.
I added minimal color to a few parts for highlighting and detail.
I stole the inverter from some EL wire that I had.
I chopped off the end, and stripped the wires.
After disassembling it, I unsoldered the wires, and re-soldered them so that they came out the back side of the inverter.
I drilled a small hole to allow the wires to pass through the case.
I cut a single section from a long LED strip.
This strip was soldered directly to the power inverter.
Now I had a very small strip of lighting to use in the barrel.
I drilled a hole in the bottom of the gun for feeding in the wire.
I used a Dremel to cut out a channel, from that hole, to house the wires.
A little hard to be trimmed from the barrel to allow the wires to come through.
I stuck the LED strip in the barrel using it's adhesive back.
Now the barrel had a light!
I fit the barrel back in place, making sure the wire/LED stayed in place.
Using a small tool, I pushed the wires into the channel I'd made so they wouldn't get in the way of reassembly.
Then I put everything back in place and closed the gun.
Before moving on, I tested the lights.
To mount the inverter and sculpt the gun, I used Apoxie Sculpt.
It's a two part, 1-to-1 mixture. Be sure to mix it thoroughly, per the instructions.
I used s small amount to mount the inverter to the gun body.
Then I added small amounts to merge the surfaces and slightly customize the shape. You could go crazy here and make the gun totally different.
I added a big block to the handle to make it fit an adult hand better.
Using a little water made it very easy to modify the shape and smooth out the surface.
It takes 24 hours for the Apoxie Sculpt to fully cure.
Make sure you're safe when sanding the Apoxie Sculpt, the dust is VERY fine.
I feathered the edges of the material with some flexible sand paper.
Large flat areas were sanded with a sanding block and orbital sander.
I even re-sculpted a little with the Dremel tool.
I used compressed air and a tack cloth to remove all of the dust.
After masking off most of the gun, I primed the new sections.
They also received the same paint as before.
I should have masked along body lines where possible to minimize touch up. A little sanding and paint blended it well.
Then I began dry brushing all of the edges.
Dry brushing creates the illusion of worn off paint, giving it a "used" look on high spots and edges.
I used a light silver on the high spots and flat black in the low spots.
I also brushed on LOTS of black/grey paint, then smeared and wiped it off with paper towels. This fills small gaps and gives it a dirty/greasy look.
The more layers and variation, the most aged and distressed the item will look.
Here it is all finished! It turned out great for a first try (I thought).

Eyyy ohhh! I've been watching your videos for a while but I didn't expect to see a Nerf video! It's great to see you join our hobby! The prop approach is very different than some of our "let's just make it look silly and shoot really hard" approaches! Nice body work on the Strongarm!

What a brilliant project and video. Great job! Thank you
Adam Savage would be so proud ! This, my friend, was AWESOME ! You totally deserve the Waynes World "wer'e not worthy" bow.
Hey Bob! I actually do this kind of stuff on my channel and wanted to give you some tips for the next time you do this. - Before painting, you should sand the blaster with around 220 grit and then clean it after (I use rubbing alcohol). This gives the paint a better surface to adhere to and can prevent some inconsistencies in the paint. - All body work should be done before painting- and you should do it in sections so you can still open up the blaster later for maintenance or modifying. Sanding it after having the internals put in can mess with the lubricant inside the plunger tube, or make the internal mechanisms stinky/crunchy. - You should look into clear coating (specifically before putting everything together) It will keep the blaster from having a sticky feel with some paints, and protect the paint if you drop it or hit it against something. Besides those, good first go

zack wildman Hmm, well, again, it kind of depends on your needs, but... if you could only have one the circular saw is capable of everything that a table saw can do, it just takes a little more effort for some of it. It's more portable, and significantly cheaper. If that's the one you get, I would suggest getting some sort of straight edge guide that you can use to cut long straight cuts, like amzn.to/1VL9sTU Also, this is pretty handy, I've got one. amzn.to/1PZ3oDi

Cool video! One question-- why did you use an inverter for the LED strip? Aren't the LEDs DC?
@mimked

Super Make Something Good question. LED strips are usually DC, whereas EL wire requires AC, hence the need for an inverter. Strange that one would be able to change the power source freely between the two. I would be very curious to know how that works.

1. It wouldn't work well because paint doesn't stick well to foam, 2. Toy firearms legally require an orange tip so stupid people know that it's a toy, you say people aren't stupid but regardless of that people are nervous freaks about guns and freak out if they think someone has a real firearm 3. Golden Nerf darts look more like , so if you have a grey Nerf Blaster and golden darts in it people will think it's a gun with bullets in it. 4. The noise a Nerf gun makes does not matter to people who aren't involved in a Nerf battle and can't hear the Nerf blaster noises.

Pretty cool! The only thing I'd make different would be using the clay only as a mold, so it could get covered in something that could look a little bit better, I'm still trying to figure out what, but I do have a problem with the clay getting covered only with paint. Anyway, it's still really cool, congrats man, you're living the fabricator's dream.

Wow thats awesome man! I used to play with nerf blasters with all my friends when I was a little kid and I remember that their was like only 3 or 4 types of guns lol :) Thanks for sharing, Peter
Free Form AIR from Smooth-On is a nice lightweight Epoxy/Apoxie type sculpting product that works pretty well.
Awesome job Bob...I also have an interest in prop building and have a future project planned in that medium. Your nerf gun could pass for a new force friday toy...very cool
Nice cutomizing. The gun looks cool .
i bought that same Nerf gun for a Vampire hunter costume i'm doing for Halloween so thanks for using that particular gun first off and it looks pretty amazing
Wow this is sick !
