Razorback Hopper Extension for Nerf Rival Nemesis

thingiverse

I got bored and looked into a couple of solutions for extending the capacity for the Nerf Rival Nemesis, and apart from seeing something on Etsy, decided to design something myself. This also worked well as I experimented a little with using a different size nozzle, 0.5 instead of 0.4 which reduced print time by a few hours. Introducing, the Razorback Hopper Extension! I promise I made no actual attempt to come up with a "cool" name as it popped in my head shortly after raising the top section from being flat. This gives you an additional 170-175 round capacity for the Nerf Rival Nemesis. Included in the files are a basic lid, as I plan on actually putting a Universal Exalt Speed Feed from a paintball hopper on it (runs about $15), and the door lock delete clip. The hopper is 3 pieces that require a total of 8x M3x20 socket head screws, 4x M3 nuts, and 3 M3x12 screws. Use 4 of the M3x20 to assemble the front and rear half first, the 3 M3x12 for securing the lid mouth, and insert the nuts into the slots on the bottom of the front half with using the 4 M3x20 to secure the clamp on the rail of the hopper. The nuts may be a little tricky to get in, but will hold more than securely in place. Install the door lock delete clip before clamping the hopper. Place it in at an angle as shown (thin bit is the top side), and then firmly press from the back of the clip as you push it towards the side until it sits over the rail slide for the door. No glue should be necessary as it will hold it firmly and you can also still be able to remove it if needed/wanted. Additional notes, you will be adding a little over a full pound of weight (includes hopper front and back, hopper mouth, and lid) before ammo, so insure that you have enough filament to print this in whatever colors you want. For a slightly different look when printing the rear half, print the first 20 layers in black as that is a thicker section that also works to hide the seem as well as reinforce slightly.
