User blog:Death By Foam/Dart Drum Mini-mod

After I've unloaded a drum of 25 darts, I hate having to count them as I put them back in :(

But, I have a solution :)



When the drum is fully loaded and detatched from the blaster, use a Dremmel with a sanding attatchment (on low speed) to mark a line where the final dart comes to. Then, draw on the sanded part with a permanent marker. Sanding the plastic will remove the gloss and prevent the marker from wearing off. You could also use a lable maker to make a "FULL" label to go with the drawn line.

Doing this will make counting the darts in the drum easier as you can see from the empty spaces in the drum, how many darts you have to go until it's full.

Hope this helps :)
