Blastech A-180 with Working Trigger

thingiverse

I was disappointed with the other offerings for the A-180. So, I built one with 3D printing in mind and a working trigger! To improve on its aesthetics, I wanted to have a few parts to assemble after printing. It should be obvious where the pieces go based on their names. I have included a few extra files to provide added flexibility. I included a split as well as a complete version of the the gun body. I did this to allow you to print the body all at once (i f you are a brave soul with a good printer). Similarly, I included knurled and smooth handgrip models. You only need one pair. I found that the knurling pattern is very difficult for most printers and the 3D printing process will leave a pattern of its own. However, if you have to have knurling for authenticity, I included the knurled models. In the screen shot you will see many screws. These screws are actual screws you buy and screw into the model to make it look better. I found some interesting looking screws at Lowes. The blaster is primarily held together with E6000 glue. I robbed a spring from a ball point pen to put behind the trigger. If you don't care about that, just glue the trigger in instead. I would say that this is a moderately difficult print and build.
