NAME OF RAYGUN: Photon Bombardment Pistol
MATERIALS USED: a broken mitre saw handle, a coat hook, radio parts, a copper bushing, electrical tape, a door jamb, a plastic wire spool, a plastic coffee table leg, a film canister lid, and a door pull. The ray gun is assembled using a combination of "Gorilla Glue", 5-Min. Epoxy, rubber cement and several other bonding agents. The finish is stressed spray paint, painted "sucker style" or right out of the can.
REMARKS: This gun is balanced, so it feels pretty good, and has held together very solid.

NAME OF RAYGUN: Ionic Disruptor
MATERIALS USED: a ton of radio parts and various electronic and hardware "scrap", speaker wire, a paper towel dispenser part, a glue gun handle, stereo knobs (all of which turn), dowels, and for the body a funky-ass juice bottle. The finish is a mixture of enamel spray paint and stain.
Ron adds: "I figured I had to have something cool to go with the latest batch of guns, to really set it off....after all, a 42 year old guy running around his yard with guns has GOTTA have a helmet! Here's my "Captain Video" meets "Buck Rogers" "Intergalactic Space Soldier Helmet"...."


MATERIALS USED: The helmet is comprised of an antique football helmet (took me forever to dig that up! Man, sports collectors are even bigger nuts than nerd collectors! But, I finally found one in an old junk shop..), plasma cut lightening bolts, washers, bolts and nuts, and a set of custom altered goggles that I'd been saving for such an occasion.....paint job is "astroid bombarded" chrome spray enamel.
