Build Guide: Drain Blaster Bazooka

[@brandonbrown2912]

i love that the nerf community is nearly solely responsible for a product completely otherwise unrelated to nerf selling out. Some manufacturer is sitting around thinking their drain blasters are like the best on the market, but it's not the market they think it is

[@Bluelyre]

Brandon Brown I know. they might want to consider rebranding.

[@ow5929]

Question Will any drain blaster work for this kinda stuff?

[@bobbirdsong6825]

If you can make a barrel for it and it has a tight fit, then yes.

[@whitewaterjosh3336]

yes it will I tried it and it works

@Captain Xavier: At two of my duty stations I dealt with inventory for large server rooms. Those "rails" look a _lot_ like covers for open slots in a server rack, such as when a server is removed or a slot is otherwise empty. The covers helped force the airflow for cooling to go over the racks instead of just gushing out the front.

[@Paperguide152]

this is more of a treat than you would know chaylo!

[@Strawberry92fs]

I actually just had an interesting idea. I know Captain Xavier must have a couple titan shells lying around from shoving titan tanks in other blasters, so my idea is to shove a drain blaster in a titan shell, Not super practical, but if we're talking about bazookas and rocket launchers anyway, it would be a neat way to re-use such a cool shell.

[@CaptainXavier]

...I like this idea...

[@microsoftpowerpoint1952]

me too

[@TheRamblerMan]

He said Home Depot! Quick everyone, go buy Home Depot out of 3" PVC!

[@CaptainXavier]

You FIEND!

[@thebubchub]

oof

[@Nisel-v1x]

this whole comment string (exept for me) is blessed!

[@bryceharper5915]

What happens when captain Xavier is given enough money to make whatever he wants? A drain powered nerf nuke? BY GOD. A DRAIN BLASTER POWERED MODULAR FOAM SPITTING T. REX!!

[@kabelguy70]

Don't give him any ideas

[@meroastisruined3039]

The one disliker was the guy who makes the drain blasters because we bought them all out

[@jcat2_086]

sorry for contributing to the drain-blaster-famine

[@nathanattwood7187]

Not sure how to execute it properly, but with all the extra space in the back tube, I'd love to house a battery and a little air compressor to charge the tank instead of the pump handle, just not sure how to make sure the compressor turns off when it gets up to pressure...

[@fununclenerfs]

RIP Ltd Commodities Drain Blasters

[@tonjamcclenny4817]

I'm not sure if you or anyone else has mentioned this but I would like to see if you could mod the bazooka to fold in half (give or take) and convert into a secondary fire mode as a mortar launcher

[@themadquacker1462]

You could use a piece of the rail for a 180 cover or something similar.

[@Ryan-pb2rm]

Would it work to fill the back end of the pipe with demolisher missiles?

[@ihill6486]

You should make a video of how to put the thread on a titan tank and the size of all the barrels

[@BaconCheesesteak]

Do you use the back pipe portion as a missile magazine? Looks like it can hold 3-4

[@CaptainXavier]

I don't currently because I do not have the plug so they would just fall out. But you could.

[@ShinKyuubi]

I"mma gonna build me one of these...just to demolish (heheh) my nephew when we have a NERF battle..and when I finally get a chance to go to a NERF event..I'm gonna slowly build my blaster collection so I have a good bit to chose from then..but this is just freaking cool.

[@adenshalala9265]

Made one with a $70 all metal plunger with 10x the air volume and i 3d printed an adapter down to 17/32 inch brass and was able to shoot a dart at least a 1/4 mile

[@ilchickentv340]

Would it work to reposition the pump to make an 18th-century style hand mortar? I know there are in-line pumps but those cost twice as much.

[@CaptainXavier]

You can try but in all likelihood it would never work properly and you would have to buy a new one...at which point you would have spent as much as an inline one to start with...

[@eylookvulheimiik7538]

What is the diameter of the inside of a missile. I'm making my own in red and orange but I need to know if Pvt. I have will fit

[@BishopGantry]

Xavier do you perform any maintenance on your drain blasters? Any ideas on how to improve a drain blaster?

[@joeofdoom]

Do you really need to improve them? They put out an absurd amount of power as is.

[@jontainter3176]

have you had any issues with pressure lose over time? say over a 24 hr time period from point of "charging" to time of fire.With the drain blaster or any other air tank system

[@CaptainXavier]

Most tanks will not hold a seal long. My Mazooka leaks like a sieve.

[@jontainter3176]

thank you. i take it, that is most effective to prime the blaster within minutes of the expected use. I was planning on building something simaler but with an in-line pump desing so that it would fit into a LAW type shell. also contemplating using a variation for a thinking of a M202 or Type 63 multi launcher for demolisher rounds. essentily a demolisher sized absolver

[@marcoshernandez1427]

Hey, great video, just what I was looking for. Do you still accept commission requests?

[@CaptainXavier]

Not at this time, no. Someday hopefully.

[@Max-yw6th]

Did you cut off the original nozzle adaptor before putting on the PVC barrel ? Or you just straight glue on the PVC barrel

[@CaptainXavier]

I glued and screwed the PVC to the nozzle adapter. More stable that way.

[@glowstonegaming3565]

Just wondering since the model of drain blaster used for the bazooka is no longer available, have you tried the red or blue ones that are available on Amazon and if you have how do they compare to this one for power and is there a major difference in power between the red and blue models?

[@glowstonegaming3565]

Also I went looking and found another source of the drain blaster you used for this if you need one, unfortunately they only sell in bulk, and by bulk I mean 200 blasters minimum order size.

[@CaptainXavier]

yeah...that is a bit much. That was all I could find also.

[@Orion5010]

to be honest i picked up a different drain blaster becasue I've always wanted to make a mortar lance from the valkyria chronicles and I happened across one that has an angled handle, friggin amazin. But in hindsight if you wanted to do commissions and you happen to be like the only person that uses an item, you should have stocked up.

[@davper8619]

I’ve seen you use drain Blasters for a while, is there a good quality brand that doesn’t break you would recommend

[@dgamer5075]

He went into detail at the beginning in the video. Basically, he directly linked this one, the one which he preferred, in the original Bazooka video, and now they're just completely out of stock, all bought out. Then again, that was 3 years ago so... Maybe they're back?

[@davper8619]

@@dgamer5075 I actually just found them on wish. They look the same

[@rabadabadoo491]

what barrel material do you use for demolishers and what size? Cheers

[@penguinLol]

hw come I just watched his bazooka build and now theres a guide YAYA

[@komitadjie]

Dumb question, what the heck do you use for your launch tube? I haven't found the right material for Demolisher rocket OD / Elite ID yet.

[@CaptainXavier]

ABS Pipe. 4 in I think

[@ima_bread]

also, I have tried using 5 min epoxy to glue to couplet on but it refuses to stick, also im trying to make it fire giant nerf darts (your homemade ultimator rockets) but they don't seem to go very far.

[@spikeydapikey1483]

Powerfix Drain Cleaner is the black one. Loads on ebay and amazon.

[@cadenthecadburyengine8198]

I’m gonna try to construct one and make it out to be artillery

[@connortremeer1966]

Amazon kids theres 10000's of blue drain blaster for 35$ Home depot or kent for the pipes Home depot or kent for screws Home depot and kent for brackets And ya get it now so find accessories of your choice and go nuts.

[@rzrider683]

Where did you get the pvc that shoots demolisher but not elites? I need it for NvZ, since I can't use a singled elite attachment there.

[@CaptainXavier]

It isn't PVC...I'm not actually sure what it is...I think it is a form of PEX

[@Crowe0920]

"I used gorilla glue to connect the pic to the nipple on the end..." hehe he said pvc by the way Chaylo, have you considered making a swarmfire wrist cannon, since it is relatively simple?

[@zacharyschupbach9496]

Crowe0920 justajolt did it dont know if you knew

[@Crowe0920]

Zachary Schupbach lol yeah that's why I threw that out, but thanks 😃

[@rey2974]

I would totally make one of these... if the drain blaster was still on the market ;_;

[@jiminator7696]

Yoooooo I never expected this

[@doorguner01]

You can store extra rockets in the back of the tube in the launcher!

[@alex234531]

i just wanted to see if a rebelle secretshot could take a k26

[@CaptainXavier]

Me too. Hopefully I will find one someday.

[@ArlinHolmes-j8x]

Air compresser going in mine

[@sp1tz]

Hey, what’s the diameter of the the two pipes on the drain blaster?

[@CaptainXavier]

I believe it is 4in abs...but don't quote me on that. It is whatever fits over your drain blaster.

[@lunimaya100]

You're the best nerfer

[@penguinsniper155]

is there another way to make a bazooka sort of like this? I want to either make one or buy one that is for either demolisher missiles or the old bow missiles

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes. You could use a Titan, or and XBZ, or another other launcher for that matter.

[@lorde_spooky]

Do you think you could use an old school hyperfire cylinder instead of a conventional barrel to fire ten elites at once a great distance

[@CaptainXavier]

Even a drain blaster cannot fire 10 very far. I built an absolver out of a Fury Fire cylinder (also 10 darts) and it works but only gets about 25 ft.

[@nathanalaneller]

Whats the music your using in this video?

[@CaptainXavier]

It is in the video description...where it is required to be...it is "Carmina Burana" by Carl Orff

[@nathanalaneller]

@@CaptainXavier Oh...Thanks :)

[@e.hellbrand9707]

do you have measurements for your barrel adapter ?

[@CaptainXavier]

1/2in PVS thread

[@ryzen4368]

What did you use for the barrel?

[@CaptainXavier]

ABS pipe

[@ryzen4368]

But what size?

[@CaptainXavier]

The size that fit over the Drain Blaster. 4in I think

[@jaketilbury3339]

I'm aware that you are backed up on commissions so i'll ask now before I request it as so I don't over load you, would you be willing to create/design another nerf ballistic knife

[@WichoDe805]

How far do those shoot?

[@CaptainXavier]

WichoDe805 no idea. My alley is too short to do a range test.

[@ninjafromfortnite7136]

Is there a link for the drain blaster?

[@CaptainXavier]

Amazon has them, I think.

[@ninjafromfortnite7136]

Found it, Thanks!

[@JeroAstra]

You can find drain blasters on Amazon

[@CaptainXavier]

I know. That was not the case when I uploaded this video over a year ago. ;)

[@chrisdotdash5154]

YEA BOI

[@ima_bread]

My drain blaster won’t fit 3”pvc

[@CaptainXavier]

Tragic.

[@ima_bread]

its one of those blue ones from amazon, I think if I dremel down the sides of the pvc tube ( it has really thick walls) it might fit or I could just use a coupler.@@CaptainXavier

[@CaptainXavier]

@@ima_bread worth a try. I used ABS pipe. Different dimensions. But I don't know the dimensions of your drain blaster.

[@ima_bread]

its one of those pressure pipes @@CaptainXavier

[@ima_bread]

but thanks

Hey captain can u mod a elite Rayven for me

If you are not skilled or dont have the materials you could make it out of cardboard and one of the rocket launcher attachments

hey Captain have you received my paintball pistol yet?

[@CaptainXavier]

Nope! I will be checking my PO box tomorrow though. I already have a pile of letters to open for a Fan Mail video...hopefully they are not all kids begging for blasters...

[@shaheerhazmanfitri9840]

do you still make this rocket launcher?

[@CaptainXavier]

Not for sale, no.

[@Chhana_16]

Good

[@a.j.mccall1338]

yes I did I asked that question before I saw the part about you not being able to release the source sorry about that

[@CaptainXavier]

In the future, you might consider watching videos all the way through before commenting questions as questions are often answered in the video. :D I usually try to answer common questions as I go...I sometimes fail...ok, I often fail, but I do try! :P

[@connortremeer1966]

I found a plentiful source of drain blasters and in many kinds but i agree if you guys buy out his source you kinda screw him over.

[@johnmes6967]

i love it

[@thatlegend101]

Wow

[@lukemillen7486]

Idk what you guys think of this but my idea is to fit a thinner long air tank in the back and have it shoot demolished rockets using an air real ease valve mounted on the top like one you would have on a air compressor

[@volkenflamer]

i made this into an artilery

[@quincybrazeau5363]

I sent a email in regards of the reverse/direct plunger blaster

[@creaturedanaaaaa]

if you're so desperate for one at all, goo.gl/mlPRCL

[@ryanborchert8389]

hey captain Xavier, I had an amazingly funny idea for a nerf jolt mod, mainly cosmetic and for comedic purposes. you should give it a paint job to make it resemble the little cricket gun from Men in black, then call it the mini cricket 2.0.
