OK, site has been wiped clean of my retail activities...officially retired, yay! Killbuckets.com, air-sharp.com, and killbucket.com are now solely devoted to YOUR Entertainment!

Now taking on a new Purpose:Funsite & Museum.

You will see every single page of copters on my site: http://www.killbuckets.com/s032sizecopter.htm

I have more 3-channel copters than...anybody.

You will see every single page of My hand-made M2HB's on my site:
http://www.killbuckets.com/killbuckets_m2hb_tour.htm

Even though they are FAKE, I have built more Browning M2HB's than any other living person.

You will see every single page of My hand-made M1919's on my site:
http://www.killbuckets.com/killbuckets_m1919_tour.htm

Also an easy claim about the M1919 Brownings...

You will see every single page of My hand-made Miniguns on my site:
http://www.killbuckets.com/killbuckets_ ... s_tour.htm

I specialize in this, and keep in mind, NONE of what you see at my site is for sale any longer.
Thank you for your time today!

Yes, but know that most are re-sized on the page; what you see is small. the actual images you go to print should be huge, 1200pix wide. On some systems, you may have to right-click and select "view image" to be downloading the proper file.

Well, I know that I got 47,540 hits yesterday. At least one of you came by. So thanks!
If you start here:

And make SURE you spend no more than ONE minute per page, you will be done seeing everything...in 20 hours.

What I'm doing with "Today"...

Zombie Apocalypse Gun!!!

The offset was done to...be different, that's it. The gun itself is being done for fun, first and foremost: And if somebody in Hollywood sees it, and then wants to pay for concept art, that wouldn't hurt my "bid for immortality" much. they can get somebody else to MAKE them, tho. I'm just doing this ONE.

The build is all online...
http://www.killbuckets.com/the_wife_dual_browning.htm
The Genesis of this idea was to make something "new". I've seen so many of the "same gat again" in movies recently. The latest Terminator film had me sick of seeing miniguns...wait a minute, that was the TRAILERS for the latest...because I didn't bother to go see it!
Ditto the M2. When we have to put Helen Mirren behind a massive gun (when Bruce Willis himself is mere steps away) to get it noticed, it's time for some CHANGE.

The Coffin Scene gun I made up last year,Killbucket's 1919 Browning Terminator gun another great example: It was awesome in conception, whoever thought it up. But most people are surprised to know it was in the movie. Stupid coffin itself stole the scene, mortals being mortals. Coffins do tend to hold the attention when present!

So I wracked my Gulliver for something that would get NOTICED in a contemporary film. A dual setup like the above gun crossed my mind. But I thought it still looked too "conventional".

The dual, angle-cut shotgun Reggie Bannister used in Phantasm 3 was an inspiration. Still not "odd" enough.

Then I thought of staggering the bodies to make it look bigger, and it suddenly made sense that yes, the feeds WOULD work better that way on a real-steel setup. I think this would be a plausible "Battlefield Expedient" type gun, one especially suitable for the Zombie Apocalypse we all know is coming one day. :ugh:

Down with the flu...ugh.

Update- the Dual Browning now has the FN30's grip and trigger group...

You MAY need to re-load pages, this was JUST posted...
Page six shows the installed microswitch, and how it works using the normally closed contacts.

Also, a M4/M16 tour, and a Custom Airsoft tour have been added to the home page:

You kids awake today?
Please don't tell me you're wasting your boss's time with the pursuit of advancement, when there are so many more fun things you could do.

A Rat-tail file, a CHEAP 1/2" electric drill, a coping saw, and a bar clamp. Oh yeah, Wifey's severely mistreated ("cute little") breakfast nook (clandestine shop) table and chairs.

I wuz gunna maek me a Brow-Ning Masheen Gun (you DO know I'm a HICK from Washington STATE, don't you?). I defiantly avoided doing a "great" job in favor of a FAST and CHEAP job, as I needed the gun NOW (the neighbor's mailbox had grievously darted in front of my Chevy again, it was in line for a lesson).

It didn't come out too badly, a bit FAT.

My boss wanted not the gun, but the CAD behind it. And he offered me enough to buy a new pickup for it, sight unseen (NOTHING he had drawn so far had "set the world on fire", despite his insistence that each one was "sexy" to a consumer).

I told Wifey we were going to sell them ourselves when I got home that evening. I got a website (with some Googling, every step is set out FOR you, BTW), bought a $15 Business License, and started taking orders for them.

Two weeks (yes, just 14 days) later, I showed up (late and haggard from cutting Browning M1919 parts all night) and told him I no longer had "time for a job", and bowed out of a four-year PLUSH stint as a magazine ad artist/Go-Fer. I had a LONG list of fake Browning 1919 guns to build. I made over 350 of the darn things before I was done.

OK, it wasn't very plush. I was a wage-slave like everybody else. Everything about the frustrating "Dream Job" just blew. Art is never appreciated (while the artist lives).

Today, I've no need to actually SELL anything (tangible), but am tickled PINK at Odd Projects. I got zippo interest in installing aftermarket ANYTHING, but will spend countless waking hours helping a "Crazy" build an Art Car. Ya know, I really gotta thank my old boss for pointing out that I "FINALLY had a good idea".

Meanwhile, not enough Art Cars.

Do me a favor, MAKE something today and escape.

Do you or you friend with the Death Race looking hummer ever get hassled by the fuzz? The hummer would be fun to drive me thinks. Get quite the stare.

But could you imagine?
MY setup is just mocked-up for the pic session (rainy one to "test the outdoor durability of my Space-Age Coating Process")...
