FIMO polymer clay slugs - pretty DOPE!
Added 2018-02-04 03:17:03 +0000 UTCThanks again to all the Patreon supporters- it looked pretty hopeless at the beginning of the year but if we keep growing, I'm pretty sure we can keep doing this.

Hey Jeff. I would love to see your wax slugs A) shot through the chronograph and 2) Shaped in to the diablo mold. I bet you a 6 pack of your faves that the wax slug will disintegrate due to the slight lack of support with that shape but would love to be wrong.
2018-02-09 08:20:04 +0000 UTCSo just under a fifth of an ounce then (according to DuckDuckGo's unit converter): <a href="https://start.duckduckgo.com/?q=5+grams+to+ounces" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://start.duckduckgo.com/?q=5+grams+to+ounces</a>

2018-02-05 16:44:03 +0000 UTCI saw one video of primer only to ignite them, full charge would be fun. I wonder if they could self-propel and further accelerate if spin stabilized.... I assume the top plug would work as some sort of pressure safety and stop them exploding. :)

2018-02-05 03:43:48 +0000 UTCwhat happens if you shoot model rocket motors out of a rifled barrel?
2018-02-05 03:18:06 +0000 UTCI don't think the fimo is strong enough to hold it together since we'd be dealing with a LOT stronger g-shock. I tried to make diabolo pellets using Rock Hard putty with lead shot and they all shattered and that stuff is a lot stronger than fimo clay.

2018-02-04 20:30:36 +0000 UTCI forgot to mention it, but they only weighed 5 grams each.

2018-02-04 20:20:41 +0000 UTCWhen I was younger I sometimes shot bee wax out of my Air Rifle and when it hit something it would make a loud bang. Could you try to shoot a solid beewax slug out of a shotgun? (I had better results when the wax was soft just like modeling clay) Greetings from Austria
2018-02-04 13:06:38 +0000 UTCI don't remember if you mentioned the weight of the projectiles. I tried going back through the video, but couldn't find it.

2018-02-04 08:22:59 +0000 UTCWhat is the most hilariously long smooth bore barrel that Danny or a viewer could make for you? I'd be interested in seeing what impact that would have.
2018-02-04 03:46:42 +0000 UTCYou could mix in some lead shot for extra weight.
