What Should I Make Next?
Alright I have ideas but I have no clue which I want to do. So I'm simply going to ask you guys. Which of these should I make? By the way check out my TDS Instructable I updated it with a simple slide mechanism. Compact Assault Rifle Like an AK-74u or an XM8C. Basically I want to try to make a small gun that has some good strength. (an exact gun you want me to do would be helpful) Power Weapon/ Sniper I dunno this is something I really wanted to make for a long time after getting some more pieces. I've had I don't know at least 4 or 5 failed attempts before I don't like what I'm making. I have yet to make a weapon simply dedicated to power. Another Side Arm My TDS is great and all but it could have been a lot better. Basically I'll try something new and see what I get. Crossbow I suck at these...and that's why I want to try it out. It's another thing that I think a knexpert should have along side a side arm and sniper. What I would plan out then is a repeater so it has a magazine. Siege Weapon Something else I was curious about. A catapult or maybe a scorpion although it would probably just end up being an even smaller version of I_a_C's cannon. I'm not to enthusiastic about this one. Other Gun Replicas I guess I could try to make other replicas of bigger weapons but unlike the compact assault rifles they'll most likely be more for looks than function. Any Combination of the Above? I don't know maybe a cross bow pistol the handle loads sounds kind of cool although it would sure be a challenge. Or if you have other ideas tell me. Those were what I could think up at the moment and would be willing to do.

That photo gives me an idea - make the site logo in K'NEX!
Reply 11 years ago
i made my signature in knex for goodharts shirt. i but i cou8ld make a logo for the site out of knex, but why?
Reply 11 years ago
Because it isn't a gun...I thought you would have learned kiteman by now, dsman. It would be pretty cool though. Like a 3D detailed logo. If I had more parts I would have tried making it into a ball machine. Hey that gives me an idea...I should try making the logo with linerider.

no no, i know that. i was wondering why a thing for this site? i mean i doubt they will use it. i did have the idea of making the instructables robot out of knex once...
Reply 11 years ago
Why? Because you can, because it's creative, and because other people might use it.
Reply 11 years ago
i guess. but really making letters was not knexes first function. if you want that then use legos. anyway, i would do it but i just don't have time now, between school and marching band i really don't have time for stuff. i only have a limited amount of time to spend on things like knex so i only focus on things that i really want to make. i think you might be happy to know that i am in the process of making a roll out desk drawer.

Interesting...I was actually planning to make my initials in large 3D constructions but I might do that instead except smaller scale.

*Steal*
If I have permission.
Reply 11 years ago
...fine go for it as long as you say you got the idea from me and Kiteman. I have too many other little things that take up pieces to do this.
Reply 11 years ago
Done.

try to make a
its an m1 garand if u didnt know
Reply 11 years ago
Oh yeah I forgot all about my M1 Garand project. Uh I don't know...I'm sure Katarukito will steal it. Who knows I'll consider it.
Reply 11 years ago
yah, i just really want one(m1 garand) also try to make some 8 round clips that go in where it would in an m1(if possible have em eject when empty if not ill mod it)
Reply 11 years ago
if you releey want one you could make mine. it's single shot though
Reply 11 years ago
I know that's the only reason I wanted to make one was the clip mechanism. I don't think I can make it "en bloc" style where they are 2x4 but I had an idea for 1x8 clips that are inserted in a similar fashion. I don't think I can make an ejecting shell but who knows I might think of something.

no i dont like to make those guns with the handle in the stock kind of thing

Alright I'm going to take a shot at the crossbow pistol idea I had. Get ready to say hello to the TDCBP (no not really I just like how it all rymes lol)
Reply 11 years ago
OK screw that. I just don't know how I would make a barrel for it that works with a magazine. I'd also have to figure out how to prevent the magazine from loading until I pull the bow back...time to look at that cool lego cross bow pistol.

can i hijack your thread and make whatever people recommend for you to make
Reply 11 years ago
...why? Do you really need ideas that badly? I'm sure as soon as I get something you'll just try to out do me like the AK-74. Whatever I guess you can take the first projects that pop up I'm working on something else for now.
Reply 11 years ago
no it might be a side project, i got 2 working right now. actually its on pause till my knex arrives.
