it is called a crankshaft, not a drive shaft.

Never thought of using a drill to power stuff before... could work for weaponry. Great build, I reckon you might just win this thing. You will probably get the top score in this round too...

one person made a fully auto airsoft bb shooter that worked off a crank a drill would make that gun go crazy

it would work very well for weaponry in fact. its exactly what you need for a powerful, fully automatic gun with a high rate of fire. i'd actually love to see one properly built ;)

I might give it a go, I'm bored at the moment.

I'm still working on converting my PDW/CQB weapon into an assault rifle. Here's the base design:

I know, but it's so COMFY!

Indeed, it is comfy. Have you built the Knexsayer?

knexguy 15 years ago

Yep, don't have it anymore though, destroyed it for a shell-ejecting sniper. Still in progress.

razzlekunai 15 years ago

Nice. Is it your own design, or is it the one Bakenbitz has on KI?

knexguy 15 years ago

My own take on the theme. No copying.

razzlekunai 15 years ago

Ah, I see. Tell me how it goes, it seems really interesting :P

knexguy 15 years ago

My idea was for a bolt which pulled back the pin and the chamber cover, releasing the previous shell and allowing a new one to load, then pushing the bolt forward would re-cover the ejection port. It's very buggy, I will have to work hard on this one :/

razzlekunai 15 years ago

That's a pretty cool idea. The way the system goes, it will be single shot, yes?

Yeah I've thought about using a drill for weaponry but it would be impractical because of how big a normal drill is and you would need to have it be a cordless drill to move around, making recharging batteries necessary too. I hope I win it, but like I said I have some tough competition.
