A nerf revolver I made in my spare time, you'll need:
Some lead wires
A wire cutter
A soldering iron
2 x 4.5v/6v dc motors
2 x 5mm (diameter) x 28 mm spring (or something similar)
1 x 9mm (diameter) x 15mm spring (or something similar)
1 x 4.5v/6v battery pack/power supply
Tape
Superglue
1 x toothpick
at least 6 x half length nerf darts
Assembly process:
Insert the dc motors into the motor holder
Press the holder into shell front
Friction fit the flywheel on top (so it blocks the motor holder from falling out)
Stick the shell slide onto the shell so that the front is flat with the end of the barrel (and i goes over the flywheels)
insert the bigger spring (9mm diameter spring) into the hole in the shell front
Glue the hinge into shell front
insert the other 2 springs so that it goes from the trigger into the holes in shell top
Tape (glue later when finalized) shell bottom to shell top so the trigger is contained
Insert a tooth pick into the small hole on the side of shell top
Insert rotate into the big hole in shell top
insert bullet pusher from the back hole of shell front
insert trigger to pusher so that the hole in the center goes through the tooth pick and the hole at the end goes onto the exposed pole on the side of the bullet pusher
Friction fit trigger to rotate into the trigger and into slide on the side of shell front so that the end also goes into the rotating mechanism
Glue in rotate lock into the tiny holes so that it keeps the rotating mechanism in
Glue handle onto the back corner of the combined shell top and shell back
Glue the front half to the back half via the hinge
Insert a loaded cylinder into the revolver and close it
Shift the motor holder so that it just doesn't interfere with the rotating cylinder but still is able to shoot the darts after it has to pushed out of the cylinder and glue it into place
Wire 2 dc motors (you might need to solder the lead wires onto the motor) to your battery back/power supply
Notes:
I printed everything in 20% but you can choose any infill% you want
“trigger to rotate” might break along the print lines because of the load, you might need glue it together after it breaks, then it should work fine
Print "shell top so that the flat side is the face on the bed
Print “shell slide” vertically so the hook is stronger
Turn off supports when printing the hinge (it is print in place)
You might need grease/lubricant in the rotate mechanism for it to function more efficiently
for the dc motors you need something similar to this: (just needs to be this shape)
