do you have to tape the pieces

[The Nomlack]

On pic 4, yes you do have to tape the five white cons. Do you like it? Post a picture when you are done :)

[daredevil499]

what does it shoot and how do you load it?

[The Nomlack]

It fires white rods. You pull back the ram then load a white rod through the front. Then take a picture just like a real camera.

why do i get the feeling you got this idea from asdfmovie lol. great idea though !!! i'l build it tomorrow...

[The Nomlack]

Ive watched all ASDF movies but i dont see how i got it from ASDF. I got the idea from jmm72.

[Sharir1701]

i don't remember in which one, but there's a scene where the guy says: "hey man ! check out my new camera" *shoots a pistol* "oh ! that's not a camera..."

[The Nomlack]

Haha i dont remember that one!

[james4]

It was in there.Also have you checked out the new ASDF movie 5?

Hello! I am making it! how do you make a half orange connector, or how did you do it?

[The Nomlack]

This build does not use orange cut pieces it uses ball joint pieces. You can use cut orange connectors. I use an exacto-knife to cut them.
By the way you really need a strong small band for the mechanism.

Tell me if it works!

I just turned it into a non functional knex gun

how do you tape the pieces?????????

[The Nomlack]

You pull on the tape from the dispenser, then tear it off, then wrap it around the rod.
