Yeah, he's kinda gotten really popular nowadays! I used to play shows up in Humbolt Country all the time and Bobo was always the guy that would take care of us, the band. Those were the days!

Yeah, I hear that man! I try and take better care of myelf these days too. The road turned me into a complete wild man for many years! Those days are over now though and I'm not playing in a band anymore.... I played drums for Long Beach Shortbus from 2002 up until around 2009! We toured nonstop too, all over the globe! A month on with maybe 1 day off (which was usually traveling to the next gig) every other week if we were lucky, then about a month off to try and recoup, and repeat all over again, and again, for 8 consecutive years! It to mention touring all those years in different bands before LB Shortbus, agh it was Hell sometimes but, I wouldn't trade those memories for anything else! I'll look up your instruments, thanks and good luck!

Hey folks,
I just finished my Tomenosuke Blaster Pro Assembly Kit and this thing is a monster! I used a real blued Charter Arms Bulldog .44 SPL as the base, so yes it's another live-fire conversion. This one came out really nice and I couldn't be any happier with it!



Check out that pristine rifling!
I was somewhat disappointed that the Tomenosuke Blaster Kit didn't have the option to wire in the 2 green sight rod LEDs. So, I ripped out the stock wiring and want to upgrade the LED setup for all 7 working LEDs. Can someone tell me the best way to wire everything up (i.e. series or parallel, resistors or without)
I have tried wiring RAC Props style - parallel with no resistors, but I think the 2 greens are burning out everyrhing else. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!


A couple photos with Phil's awesome Premium Holster!


My next build will have a real Steyr Mannlicher SL in .222 Remington Receiver, which is kinda scary to say the least!? Thank God for this forum and all the new friends I've made because of it!

YES, I've finally been able to get all 7 LEDs working properly! I must've been getting a short from the greens in the sight rod, so i tried shrink wrapping them a little better. Of coarse, they wouldn't insert into the tiny hole, one more try while keeping things to a clean minimum and Boom, success!
Isn't it a beaut!?
