What is this?

Hi everyone, I think it's been January since I last posted. While some of you might have been thinking I quit, I actually haven't. My life has just been busy, especially over the summer, and I just haven't that much to document. I've made a few more homemades, but not as many as last year. As to why I stopped posting, I don't exactly know why. I think it is mainly because the Nerf-related blogs seems to be irrelevant these days. Facebook has taken over, and people post their work between Facebook and NerfHaven. The blog format just isn't as popular as it was 1-2 years ago, and most of the people who used to have blogs no longer post on them either. I actually think that I may be the only one left out of iModify, BBV, T da B, Thailyer, soloz, and others. Those guys are the ones who really got me into this hobby, and it sucks to know they're done with it.

For me, I fully intend to stay in this hobby as long as possible. I've been selling almost all of my stock blasters, but I love homemades and NIC wars. I went to Plains in March, and I went to a Philly war this summer. Wars are great, and I have made a lot of new friends by going to them. I have, however, slowed down in making homemade blasters. I've pretty much plateaued in what I can make, so now I have to be one of the innovators. This year I want to learn CAD software, which will help me 3D print parts for new, awesome blasters. I think I will still be making things at a pretty slow rate though. I've got more things going on in life, and I have some other hobbies that I've been doing. I still have no intention of quitting this hobby, but if I ever do, I will make sure to post it here.

As for the blog, I don't think it will be very active anymore. I don't make as many things, and there just aren't many people who read it these days to put in the effort of posting. For those of you who still want to see what I'm doing, I am fairly active on NerfHaven under the name Drev, and I am also on most of the facebook groups. I might even post on my youtube channel every now and then with nerf and non-nerf things. I am still doing commissions, so if anyone wants a homemade, then just email me. Other than that, we'll see what happens with this blog. Maybe I'll post what I've neglected to post for months.  Well, that's all, I have. Hopefully I managed to organize my ramblings into some coherent paragraphs, and thanks for reading!

Homemade Air Blaster

Well, as you might be able to tell, I was not able to post over my break like I said I would. I did have time, but I had other things to do and I honestly didn't feel like writing a post. I was on break and I wanted to do nothing productive. Now that it is my last day of break and I need an excuse not to do my school work, I'm deciding to post this.

This is my homemade air blaster that it made from not all homemade parts.

I'm not dead!

Hi everyone, I know that no one likes these posts, but I think this is necessary. I haven't posted for months, and I don't want people to think that I quit. I am still alive and I'm trying to keep up with the hobby still. There are many reasons for not posting including junior year (awful), a concussion, and just more stuff going on in my life. Luckily, winter break is coming up and I should have something new up by then. There are two things I've made that I haven't gotten around to posting yet and I plan on making something new over break. Stay tuned, because something new should be popping up in late December. Until then, thanks for reading.

+bow Review

Just a quick post here. The person who commissioned me, Danny, did a great lengthy review on the +bow he received from me. He also did a review on my old double rainbow that he bought.
Here's the link since I can't get the video to work on here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJF4zS_QuDA .
Thanks for the review!

+bow 3

Long time no post. With the start of school I have been busy and couldn't get around to posting this. Anyways, this is the third +bow that I made and I decided to do it in video form. All of the information on it should be in the video. Sorry for the 480p. I filmed it in 1080p, but had exporting issues.
I have another RBpistol coming up. Not sure which type of post to make that one either since it is also my third one of those. Give me feedback on what you think of the video. Thanks for watching.

ESLT 2

I got a commission from a friend to make one of these for him, so here it is. This post won't be very long since I recently did one on an ESLT.
