Ok I relubed the noid in my trifade (figured, what the hell, might fix it while waiting for one from ASP) and hooked up air damn thing was losing mad air. took me about 5 minutes to realise I didnt have my AOC cap (was shipped to edwin to hopefully match color for LPRC) *sigh* I really am getting old CRS like a mother fucker (cant remember shit)

Don't feel too bad, I was installing one of the New Designz 15* ASA's that Ky's buddy is selling (good shit, by the way), and started to air it up and got huge gushing amounts of leak because I had forget to install both block screws in the ASA (no gauge yet, but soon...) AND my brand new Edwin LPRC. Yeah, 3 huge gaping holes in my air passage, and I'm actually surprised it leaks when the air is turned on.


No, my mom didn't drop me as a child... she dribbled me like a basket ball.

I aired up my old gun when it didn't have a the guage on it (it's on my tribal now sine my old one blew up) it leaked out like crazy, and I as suprised too... don't worry, you're not getting to old, I did the same thing and I'm 16...

I'm sure there are plenty of times where I have forgot something. I just can't remember any lol.

BTW, if you want to give the tri-fade a better home, my doors are open ;) and I have andy 30 min away, so (iirc) if your tri-fade has a bunch of messed up stuff, it can be taken care of.

I think I can send yours back, as mine matches yours pretty good, and I have a gun metal one too.

no worries, whenever you get a chance, that gun metal twister is with warped getting your ace board put on and it has a lpr on it (wich is going on my chrome bbt when I get the LPRC)

actually other than me trying to turn it into mephisto electronics, and having problems with wire placement on this older style board (doesnt match the picture on ASP) and of course I dont have the stock HPR (wich is a damn shame) it is a nice working gun

I think the best I've ever experienced is when I forgot to put the LPR cap on an Angel and aired it up. The LPR piston, spring disks, and shims went flying across the room and put a nice little dent in the drywall. I tend to pay more attention now... :)

I blew the bolt out of the back of a cocker once. I forgot the pull pin. It made me jump pretty bad. Hit me in the arm. No fun at all...

I've done a few stupid things like that in my time. I pinched the skin on my chest with the back block of a cocker once, too. Still have the scar to this day. Future reference: don't work on markers with no shirt on...








God... that makes me sound like a complete moron... :anewbie:
I can make cockers shoot awesome I swear... :Yes:

Isn't like, you must be 15% smarter than the thing you are working on? If it is true, Halos are damn smart. I got my ass kicked by one. All those damn wires and shit.

Hah, all those wires? There's what... 8 wires total? 2 for power, 2 for motor, 4 for eyes, right? By now I can rewire a v1e, v2a, and v2b boardset from just memory, not to mention Bushy PDS harnesses as well.

omg.... yesterday we were shooting some T-balls in the basement. (my brother wanted to try them, so he bought some one ebay a while ago) anyway, seems like after the first time, you'd remember, but I screwed my tank onto the same gun with no gauge on it... I feel so stupid! it was bad enough doing it the first time... but twice :doh:
