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.

[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]

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!
