Nerf Modifications

The bench that ate up middle school. Brushless motors, 6S LiPos, custom paint, scratch-built pneumatic blasters. Then it turned into 3D4U a few years later.

How it started

I took every blaster I could get my hands on apart and never put one back together unmodified. Bought a 3D printer to keep up with the parts I needed. That printer paid for itself a few years later as 3D4U Printing.

Cast my own dart tips. Heavier, more accurate, hit way harder than stock foam. The first time I made the projectile better than what came in the box.

Custom blasters

A whole blaster I designed in translucent polycarbonate. Over two dozen custom parts, sourced from the Philippines. The first one where every piece was mine.
