Foam Dart Shooter (Nerf Dart Compatible)

thingiverse

Foam Dart Shooter utilizes Nerf foam darts and generic ones should also work well, making it an easy and fun project to complete with a rewarding outcome. Having extras is awesome, especially when you don't have enough Nerf guns for everyone - this cheap and easy alternative comes in handy. Tools needed: A cutting tool such as a hack saw works perfectly, along with needle nose pliers. Also required: 3/4" PVC Pipe and 3D printed parts. Cut the tubes into 20" sections, a standard size for traditional blow dart tubes. You can experiment with different sizes if you prefer. Optional: Painting or hydro dipping your tubes adds an extra layer of customization. There is one part on the "mouth piece" that needs to be removed with needle nose pliers - it breaks off easily. This self-made support needs to be taken out for use, and I have photos uploaded showing what to remove. The "6 dart holder" is only for non-painted tube versions; using this version on a painted tube may cause damage to your design. I will upload a different version for painted tubes soon. As an adult, you can blast darts out of this quite hard and pretty far, so eye protection is highly recommended. I plan to add updated parts in the near future with improvements I think can be made.
