I planning to make a Solar Gun toy(you know like a flash light), and I've decided to base the model on the following parts--
Lens: sol
Frames: Dragoon
Battery: a single would be fine, nothing too big.
It's also going to have a chargeble battery and a sloar sensor(if I can get it to work...)
So any suggestions on what materials to make it out of?
I'll show you guys my sketches once I start... :D
It's ok to post you guys own version ALSO!! ^_^

The frames should (obviously) be made from flashlight lenses. You could try to find a decent sized watergun to house it, to give it that kind of "gun" feel.

If you actually make this, you'd be the ultimate cosplayer. Well... Maybe not ultimate, for I am the ultimate at anything.

But I'm not starting to make it right away, First i must design, gather parts, then build so yeah.
Good suggestion Blues !!

uese cardboard, that stuff can do anything.
I had one almsot finished, and then i scrapped it cause i ran out of cardboard.
build half of it around the flash light, and hten just mimic the same peices for the otehr side.
hope you get further than i did

Alright, here's my ten cents: I'm already building one! Here are some problems I've encountered:

1; DON'T BIULD AROUND A FLASHLIGHT!
2; Check your proporshonal diagrams to match up with in-game-to-outworld diagrammes and basic design.
3; Decide on the more detailed features first (For example, lens level, grenades, version of battery (example, single LOOKS the same as double, so for colours, pick the nicer of the two)).
4; Grab some GOOD materials, nothing crappy like cardboard and foil, but instead something like heat-shrink tubing and bendable yet strong, sturdy metals.
5; Your local hardware store is a goldmine for rubbers, woods, and a few metals.
6; A great multi tool would be a dremal, it has precision and power wraped into one.
7; Plan your diagrams with easy-to-read measurements, like small symbols and a legend.
8; Focus and organize your thoughts before you rush headlong into things.
9; Have fun with it. Enjoy your fun with building it while you can.
0; Try your luck.

Well, there you go! Good luck!

a banned member had a working one... he said it just burned stuff.

guessing by his interi description, the triger opens an iris covering the main lens, which is lanted downward to a lens, hits a mirror redirecting the light through about 10 onther lenses, a whole bunha mirrors before the last ens just incase the light strayed offa tha path... and then through the final, also iris protected lens. you may need heatproof mtals...and rubber grips for this one.

online japanese to englihs tranlsators work teribley at spelling!
Recent reports suggest that a barrelful of monkeys isn't as half as fun as previously suggested. In fact, its almost horrifying.

If ya look up it says "Solar Gun Toy" so it's just for fan purpose not to make a very realistic one that could burn stuff...
If so it would've been called a the Real Solar Gun topic, lol.
so yeah....heh heh..

I believe a real solar gun that burns stuff would be something similar to a magnifying glass....

are you talking about aht takashie what ever dude? if he was th eone who made it, i wouldent believe him, because his attituse would leade me to believe that he wouldent have hte brains to come up with something as conplex as that.
i ugess if you made it out of sheat metal, you coupd hammer it into the right pattern.

Beeg's post has reignited my flame of hate for stupid people like takashi.
