I love Nerf Blasters, but I thought it would be more fun if they fired more than one Nerf dart at a time - at least ten! so I thought I'd have a go at building a custom multi-shot Nerf Blaster with 3D printing and Arduino. It looks like it'll take a lot of compressed air to fire all the darts at once, so I build electric rollers to push the Nerf darts out. There are five lots of ten darts that get shoved through the rollers with servos, and a mechanical mechanism to bring each drawer of Nerfs around in order.

Huge thanks to my patrons, without whom my standard of living would drastically decline. Like, inside out-Farm Foods bag decline. Plus a very special shoutout to Aleph Objects, Inc who keep me in LulzBot 3D printers and support me via Patreon.

③ XROBOTS
Former toy designer, current YouTube maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.
XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
④ MUSIC AND SFX
The majority of the music and SFX used in my videos is from Epidemic Sound
