I can't believe this doesn't have more views. All these people trying to sell fancy 3d printed spacers when this is just as good and its so easy to make multiple spacers to get different fps ranges. Thanks for posting this. Looking forward to more content.
My god, I was going to spend a crap load of money on a 3d printer just so I can make an spacer but you guys saved my money and my time, tnx guys great video
I did cut a 1 inch of the 1/2 inch PVC pipe. However, it was too long and I was not able to grip the spring around anything. So I reduced it down to 7/8 inch. I'm going to buy myself chronograph to measure how fast it improved my Blaster. But without a chronograph I can tell that it packs a much bigger punch than before. Thanks for the tip.
Not 100% sure what you're asking. Should the CPVC be snug around the post in the cap of the Nexus? No, it just fits loosely around it. The CPVC should sit flush on the cap at the back. The spring should sit on top of the CPVC. If I didn't answer your question, let me know and I apologize in advance.
Great video, but is that really 1/2 pvc?? I have some 1/2 pvc and it doesn't fit in the whole and it doesn't fit as well over the stoppers peg. Or do you mean 1/2 outer diameter?
I never would’ve thought it would be that easy. I have to give this a shot. Not saying I will, but would you mind if I made a similar video for my channel. I will definitely give your channel the credit if I do? One the less I’m going to try this mod out. Thanks so much for sharing. You’ve definitely earned my Sub 💪🏽
@@daddydaughternerf5300 do I have to use the pipe cutter on the pvc? I know a saw would leave burrs on the ends so I was considering using my miter saw. If that seems dangerous I guess I’ll go to the hardware store to pick up a pipe cutter I’m sure they are inexpensive, your thoughts?
Nah, a saw will work fine. You can sand down the rough edges with some sandpaper or a file. Put the sandpaper on a flat surface and run the pipe over it in a circular pattern to level it out.
1/2" PVC will probably not fit. Really, anything that will fit like the video will work if you can't source the CPVC. Marker caps can be a good source.

I was this close to buying a spacer while I literally have a stick of pvc in the next room. Thanks!

Yeah. I was looking at buying a spacer, but now I know I can just use some of the pvc I've got lying around! People are tryin to rip us off lol
I don't think anyone is trying to rip anyone off. I do think there are less expensive options available.
I don’t know how this channel doesn’t have at least 1 million subs
Thanks! I mean, we're only a few months old at this point.
Loved the beginning of the video. So fun. Off to the hardware store.

Thanks!
I really appreciate this nexus mod. Keep up the good work 😃.
Thanks!
Unbelievable what a little PVC can do. You guys are doing good things. People let's get the two of them more reputation they deserve it.
Wow thanks!

Glad to hear it worked out. 1 inch is pushing the limits of what the blaster can accept. You should be averaging 30-40 more FPS with the spacer.
Is the 1/2 inch referring to the inner or outer diameter? I've got some 1/2 ID pvc pipe, wondering if that will work.
1/2 inch PVC will probably not work. You can easily check for fit on that.
@@daddydaughternerf5300 I just checked, it didn't fit. It looks like the outer diameter of the pipe needs to be half inch, not the inner diameter.
I have a question? I got same half inch pvc pipe and is there supposed to be a gap between the pipe and the thing in the middle of the cap?

Please do make a video. The foam flinging community needs the content and support.
@@daddydaughternerf5300 I just found some 1/2” pvc in my garage so I very well might. Thanks again
Remember, you can use anything that will fit in there and not be crushed by the spring.

If you don’t have a pipe use small Lego wheels
Have you trued any spacers larger than 1 inch? I would be interested to see whats the max length you can get in there.
Hitting over 200 FPS with 1" spacer. Haven't tried a longer spacer. I'll leave that up to all of you. Thanks for the kind words!
Wow it improves a lot then
It does. I wasn't consistently hitting over 200 with the one inch spacer but it was obtainable. Closer to a 180-190 average.
Yeah I’m using a small spacer for a slight boost only
@@daddydaughternerf5300 yeah I made a half inch spacer and it hits like a truck. I don’t need a dart zone pro for that performance anymore lol
You need 1/2 pvc pipe right?
1/2" CPVC

cute
The blue mark is almost gone
Are you sure that you're using 1/2 pvc? My 1/2 in pvc doesnt block the spring.
I'm sure, I'm using 1/2"x10' from Home Depo in the video.

Just eyeballing here, but are you sure that's not CPVC? (I used a lot of that during my Larping days)
Yes its CPVC.
