Today i realized that making my own scope for a paintball gun would be a fun project.is there a way to make a homemade scope for a paintball or even any other item?
1lb (450g) brown sugar 12 oz (350g) salted butter 1 teaspoon malt vinegar 5 fl oz water (150ml) Put all ingredients into a very large pan (or it will boil over), bring SLOWLY to the boil over low heat for about 10-15 mins stirring occasionallyWhen sugar has completely dissolved, turn heat up and insert cooking thermometer and let mixture bubble without stirring until temp reaches 250F or 130centigrade - about 10 minutesPour into an oiled tin (19 cm square or 7-8 inches)Allow to set, turn toffee out and bash with a hammer or rolling pinIf you don't have a cooking thermometer, test by dropping a teaspoonful onto a saucer of cold waterIt if sets immediately into a soft pliable ball it is ready.
Ingredients 6 cups cold water 6 cups white sugar Directions 1.Prepare your candy growing area by thoroughly cleaning and drying a 2 quart jarYou will need a place for it to rest undisturbed for about 2 weeks2.In a large bowl, place the waterDissolve sugar in water, a little at a time, stirring each time until sugar is completely dissolved, until no more sugar can be incorporatedPour sugar water into clean jar and place a bamboo skewer in the jar, being sure the top sticks out over the surface of the waterCover with a cloth, to keep out dust, and let rest until all water is evaporated and crystals have formed on the skewer, several days3.NOTE: For larger crystals, try seeding them, by wetting your skewer and rolling it in sugar before placing it in the sugar waterBe sure not to disturb the crystals as they are growing.
If you can grind and polish glass, you can make your own telescopic sight for any gunOh, it would be helpful if you can extrude aluminum tubes alsoAnd Threading rings.
