I started 3D printing in 2014 with a terrible machine, got frustrated, and gave up. Nerf modding (Especially Out of Darts) got me back into 3D printing in a big way, we really need more collabs with Luke!
Oh man I recently found Out Of Darts RUclips channel and I was hooked. What he is doing with all the mods is amazing. Seeing the he has grown to such a big 3d printing business is inspiring. Digging through my sons collection of Nerf blasters to pick one to modify now :) First time I saw his prototype video for that big hopper blaster my jaw just dropped! I need one of those in my life lol
It's so refreshing to see people who not only enjoy their work, but have so much passion that they make it look like it's not even work, but just a hobby. Very awesome to see!
If you ever get the chance, I'd also get in touch with Captain Slug. He's basically been the forefather to the entire 3d printed blaster sub-hobby. Slug has made lever action blasters, pump action blasters, elastic driven blasters and tons more.
Went to the web site and did a search for vacuum or suction and got no result for merch so is there any plans on making a vacuum to suck up all those foam balls (filtering out things like lint/dirt/sand) back into the container or something automatic like a a small swarm of pre-programmed roomba-like creations that cleans up an indoor playing area for you (on a flat surface like concrete)?
Resin SCAR (String Centered Auto Rotating) barrels would probably negate the need for strings, allowing you to print the part in one go without major post processing (other than the regular resin procedures. The resin Jupiter might be more brittle, but it should hold up. Would love to see it!
@@plumbinggamer In our testing, and in some video reviews from others in the hobby (American Foam come to mind), we've actually found running with the pack makes it feed better because it agitates the rival rounds where the auger can't reach. - Perry
I don't know how practical it would be, but if they made biodegradable ammo, you could use these things outside without needing to worry about litter or cleanup.
Love all of this. A galaxy resin jupiter, or a jupiter color-scheme'd jupiter would be fantastic What ever happened to that rival capatable shotgun design?
I actually talked to Luke about this- it adds more parts and automation than needed, and can create some other issues with bed adhesion for some parts. That and all of his printers are direct from Prusa himself...
I believe he was working with a manufacturer (or someone) on some high strength resins and doing some prototyping. He did a video, but it sounded pretty early-stage.
Great video, I am going to be getting my first 3d printer soon because my hobby is nerf. I'm nearly there with the saving but not sure which printer to get, my budget is £200 to £300 (pounds, I am British) so I have plenty of options. I intend to print the Lynx, it's a great bullpup springer blaster.
You just gotta Love Luke and his company. Btw. Isnt even engineering grade resin a little too brittle for this kind of stress like a nerf blaster? I guess FDM is the way to go here.
A fully 3D resin printed Jupiter and Proton Pack would be great to see!! Interested in seeing if resin can take the abuse that the blaster would put on the parts.
All of this is great, and truly amazing... But t for the PLA parts.. What happens if I leave the gun in the trunk or backseat of my car one hot summer and forget about it? I’m imagining the result is exactly what I think it is.
The Nerf community is pretty great like that. I'd say it's slightly less fun than paintball or airsoft, but the trade off, almost nobody in the hobby has a toxic attitude. Everyone's just there to have fun and be ridiculous.
while I was putting together the open rc f1 car. I used resin parts and noticed that the resin parts. Were smaller and wouldn't hold screws. Like the screw would just keep spinning. It would be interesting to see how a Jupiter blaster out of resin would be like.
Resin does shrink while curing, so you will need to take that into account when printing. Usually the resin's spec sheet will tell you the approximate shrinkage rate. Normal resin is also rather hard and brittle, so you can't just drive in a self-tapping screw. In my opinion, it's a bad choice for making something like a blaster. Maybe tough resins will work.
So, my daughter and Luke each had a rolling golf ball catching style thing, and rolled it around the parking lot. I really got the feeling this wasn't the first time there was a large amount of Rival balls needing to be picked up in the parking lot :)
A resin SCAR is about the only thing that makes sense really. The weight/strength of resin really doesnt lend to the impact of the blaster itself, IMO.
As I watched this, I was thinking that, at some point, it must make sense to switch from 3D printed to injection molded. (But then 3DPN wouldn't make videos of the products...)
@@jamesmatthew2677 in fact they just released their first injection molded product: that huge magazine used in the Lynx. OOD just published a video about it and discussed why it's just their first, and it basically comes down to injection molding taking a long time to pay for itself, but also sometimes being the only way to make a reliable product.
@@3DPrintingNerd Yup, pas de merde, Sherlock! One example I’ve seen in media is in the show LetterKenny, set in a small Ontario (Canada) town. Personally, I call them nails, as in coffin (and coughing) nails - easy to do as an asthmatic non-user.
Hi Joel, I would like to challenge you to make a mechanical gimbal I want to see your design thank you. (Rules 1. No technology in gimbal 2 . It has to stabilize a camera 3. and lastly, thank you if you can participate.
Completely incomprehensible to us who do not live in the United States, nerf? So because of this, it's probably the most uninteresting thing I've seen on your channel. A channel that I still like very much :)
@@3DPrintingNerdI live in Sweden. There are, but it is not often you see children or young people using it, something rifle-like that shoots arrows / balls, it is very unusual. Playing with toys, running around and shooting at each other has never been something big here in the Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. These are not facts but how I experience it regarding these games But your channel is still one of the better in 3D printing, following every episode you broadcast. Almost always with interesting content.
Hi love the work you do thank you. Galactic Kr8tions may have something you mite like please check him out , I believe it would be a good fit. I am a fan of both and hope something good comes from it. Thank you
I can't help but smile seeing all the fun you and your family had at OOD HQ. Thanks for the spotlight! - Perry
PERRY! We had a blast, will definitely make the trip down again :)
@@3DPrintingNerd The look on your kids face when he shot the Lynx is what makes nerf modding so fun.
So many awesome things in this video… luke, darts, 70 printers, drooling over that workshop, stunning studio space
But what do you think about the question posed at the end? I expect you to be all over that.!
Ummmm did I hear a Resin Jupiter blaster?!
YOU SURE DID :)
Have you ever tried using artistic brushes, 3D resin, and a UV lamp to adorn other projects? You can even add a laser to etch cavities. 😁

Would be awesome for all of us to go to a 3D Printing Faire and have a competition 😎
3,500 round backpack at 20 rounds per second...a little math...comes out to a big friggin' mess to clean up! :)
A HUGE friggin mess hahahahha
You could fire darts constantly for 3 minutes straight. ROFL

YES that's a great idea!
Joel’s ‘Awho myuh Gosh’ @9:10 really showed off his Minnesota Mom accent. Couldn’t help but think Sarah Palin’s accent when he said that. 🤣
Seriously living the dream! Prime example of a good use case for 3D printing.

We do have some designs for foam ammo collection in the works. I don't think we've discussed swarms of roombas though, lol. - Perry
Nut gatherers work great for Rival rounds.
Lol, that proton-pack needs a "cleanup" mode to quickly suck up all the ammo on the floor :D
Such a good idea!
Just have a FULL REVERSE switch hahahah
They actually have a sort of rotating rake like thing which makes it much easier to walk around and roll up all the balls.
The look on your boys face when he fired the dart gun sums it up for all of us watching this,.
It's JOYOUS. I'm not even kidding.
4:15 Out Of Darts go brrrr :)
The satisfying thump of hundreds of them nerf balls hitting the cardboard at once! I must have one of these!
YOU NEED ONE!
Great to see you got the family involved - they were having a blast.
Blast, or blaster?
Resin SCAR (String Centered Auto Rotating) barrels would probably negate the need for strings, allowing you to print the part in one go without major post processing (other than the regular resin procedures. The resin Jupiter might be more brittle, but it should hold up. Would love to see it!
You and your son's reactions to shooting that blaster was hilarious! Thanks for the fun video. High-5!
Hey! Thank YOU for watching! He had an absolute blast at Out Of Darts and will be coming along when we go back :)
Wow it's cool at the end, you can see the trail of balls. Almost like tracer rounds. Great video
Thanks, man! It was SO FUN to see in person!
This is so cool! How have I not heard of these guys before!
I can’t help but think that Proton Pack needs to be filled with Cheese Balls!!!
STOP MAKING ME HUNGRY, CHRIS.
I would love to see a resin Jupiter I’m looking at buying a Jupiter and proton pack right now 😳🔥🔥
I wonder if you could make a proton pack using a modified hard backpack so it would be more ergonomic?
Yeah that's a thing already lol. This concept has already been developed a lot by multiple people in the nerf community.
Part of the design of the Proton Pack includes a "snorkel" so the blower can intake enough air when the whole thing is enclosed in a backpack. - Perry
How durable is it. For example if your running around in a war is the any feeding failures?
Ooh that’s a good question.
@@plumbinggamer In our testing, and in some video reviews from others in the hobby (American Foam come to mind), we've actually found running with the pack makes it feed better because it agitates the rival rounds where the auger can't reach. - Perry

You and me both!
I have been waiting for the proton pack to be released ever since he actually came up with the first video for it
It's SO COOL. a large enough container could bring you infinite ammo
@@3DPrintingNerd While that statement is logically correct, the engineer in me says... no.
Hahaha. I fully understand:)
Very fun! I loved seeing the whole family get in on the action.
Yes awsome always liked that video and this is part 2 that I always hoping for
yess exactly I re-watched the original like 5 times throughout the years😂😂
@@vincentreid401 nice
I don't know how practical it would be, but if they made biodegradable ammo, you could use these things outside without needing to worry about litter or cleanup.
I LOVE this idea. Not sure it exists. I know they make the golf balls that are biodegradable. Maybe nerf ammo too?
Love all of this. A galaxy resin jupiter, or a jupiter color-scheme'd jupiter would be fantastic
What ever happened to that rival capatable shotgun design?
What happened to their prusa minis? I thought they were going to start running minis.. I wonder if it didn’t work out?
When will belt printers be involved in this?
I actually talked to Luke about this- it adds more parts and automation than needed, and can create some other issues with bed adhesion for some parts. That and all of his printers are direct from Prusa himself...
Drac have delved into resin blaster production a bit. He may be the guy to talk to.
They're awful. Resin shouldn't be used for blasters.
I believe he was working with a manufacturer (or someone) on some high strength resins and doing some prototyping. He did a video, but it sounded pretty early-stage.

I want that Jupiter blaster and the Proton pack but I'd need a wheelchair or cane mount. It would be fun to be transformed into a Nerf Battery.
HOLY SHEET.....this place is NEAT!
Hey joe ... Why you don't built a beautifull blv printer??😊😊😬😉
I really wanna see someone dual wield those proton pack blasters some day!
You just gotta Love Luke and his company. Btw. Isnt even engineering grade resin a little too brittle for this kind of stress like a nerf blaster? I guess FDM is the way to go here.

Do they not have parts melt in peoples cars if it’s printed out of PLA?
YES!!!! A JUPITER WITH GLITTER
With Joel on Board, Sid and David will play until they're Out of Darts. Awesome video
at 2:49 the guy soldering has the same air cleaner than me lol
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed this video!!!
RESIN JUPITER YES? YES. YES! Like 2019 ago YES.
The top rail does not “improve” this blaster. The rear rail has a built in riser. So it compensates for longer shots and dart drop…
“50 bucks?? That’s so…” *don’t say ridiculous. Don’t say expensive.* “…cool.”
It is not a ridiculous price considering what you get. There is a $25 version with a top prime as well.
Have to wonder how big a print farm gets before it would be faster to get a couple injection molding machines…
That's a good question. I know Josef Prusa and his team have HUNDREDS of 3d printers, and have only recently injection molded parts for the MINI.
it would be perfect if Joel remakes John Wick's scene shopping for guns.... but with nerfs...
I would Very much like to see a resin nerf compatible blaster.
All of this is great, and truly amazing... But t for the PLA parts..
What happens if I leave the gun in the trunk or backseat of my car one hot summer and forget about it? I’m imagining the result is exactly what I think it is.
Full Clear Resin Rival!!!!!!!
I mean, it's not a bad idea :)
@@3DPrintingNerd hope you will build one.. 😆😆
..kids enjoyed that a little too much:P:D
He needs to develop Rumba Vacuum mods to collect all of the balls into a hopper.
Wow. Like gets his own time and still plugs another company. That’s why all my stuff comes from him.
He is such a good human, I love getting the chance to hang out with him!

Thanks for help Joel but thangs did not pan out. At least you and i are trying. I shall keep working to fix this for all comunity.
