As a lot of you guys know, many of us have plans for our projects in 2009. Most of my projects however have been put on hold for a number of reasons, but now I've got a few things you can expect from me in the new year! Including;
Testing of the blow-through-forward valve for the X-ACS (finally!);
Reviews of A-10 and Eurofighter EDF R/C jets;
New blowback design for airsoft machine guns;
Design for an on-the-cheap tank (really an armored car, no tracks);
Epoxy piston gun;
And much more!
I may build up a YouTube video for my channel if I pull enough of my ideas together, and if I can get the money (or better yet, a used golf cart or go kart) I might even build my tank!
More to come if anybody shows any interest.

Nice topic! Some really interesting things you've got going on there.
My spudgun new years plans are as follows:
Add a stock to the Gauntlet of Clara Ann as well as adding a super secret upgrade.
I also want to design a golf ball burst disk cannon.
Last and probably not going to happen, I want to try my hand at pneumatics.

I'll probably find other items of stationery to convert into weapons as the year rolls on
I also haven't given up on my quest to achieve dakka-dakka-dakka full auto, have some parts on the way so watch this space

I could make a list, but I am better at making lists rather then completing them, as I do alot of research before building something, and by the time I finish research and designing, I encountered something more awesome I want to make.
But I will show you my devastating toy soonishly after I get my fridge compressor connected so I can post it with a damage vid firing marbles with 30-40 bar.

I guess I can slip a little... There isn't much to tell, because these are very complex and time consuming in the R&D department.
As usual, no promises, but still very real possibilities.
- A GOOD bicycle pump. Completely homemade; not that crap you get from walmart. 250 psi max.
- Finish up the version 3 of the piston hybrid (did you know about version 3?:):) The silhouette was in my sig for a while. It has already been fired at 5x, but I'm rebuilding some parts I don't like. Will be between 11 - 12 pounds, normally run 8-10x and produce over 1200 ft-lbs.
- HBBMG. Preliminary tests show it's going to have some problems, but the prototype is nearly done and I think I can work around them. Will hopefully be capable of supersonic velocities.
- Maybe a semi /full auto combustion if I have time. Self-contained of course.

Does that stand for Highpressure BBMG?

My plans are as follows:
Double Barrel Sawed Off 32mm Grenade launcher with custom wood furniture
Possibly a ppsh-41 airsoft gun (m14 mod)
Airsoft Suitcase bomb with timer activated sprinkler valves.
Atleast 1 Innovative thing by April.(I always try to find new ideas.)

It's just that the thought of a hybrid BBMG is so beyond my imagination I couldn't actual get my head around it
