Blow tube sabot

thingiverse

A simple sabot shell to pair 3mm nails witch a 10mm blow tube. Built on a Sunday afternoon to fight boredom. I had a spare 10 / 12 mm aluminum pipe and some 3,1x60mm nails laying around. You'll need a pipe with an inner diameter of 10mm and 3mm (or 3.1mm) thick nails with a length of at least 45mm. Use common sense and be safe ! Instructions Print at least 2 Shells, i recommend ABS or Nylon in bright colors to recover them more easily. They are reusable. Make sure they fit loosely in the pipe while mounting the nail, you may need to sand the ends and / or redrill the center hole. To add the stabilizer fins i cut off the nails head and gently hammered the printed fins onto the back of the nail.
