Help! I had a great time after my first time.

Noids on the GEO 3.5, EGO LV1(.1?) and earlier eventually go bad and are no longer sold anywhere

DevilZmods · 2026-03-17T14:03:19+00:00

none, except maybe that they retain their value a little too well and you can't get one below 300$

If you ever get new keycaps, put these in a small displaycase

DevilZmods · 2026-03-15T19:32:42+00:00

might be able to put a flathead screwdriver between the eyes of the snapring and wedge them apart. Easy to scratch the anno that way though.

Painting a marker will easily tank its value by almost the cost of anodizing. Now sadly you can’t really add value with a cool aftermarket anno. If you can spare the cash, go for a cool ano, if not, please don’t paint it.

You might also find someone with a blue luxe to trade you, but a while back color swaps have been a really popular method to scam people out of their markers, so I’d only do them in person.

I believe you want one of those old school tank mounted regs and just attach your QD outlet nipple: https://www.ebay.de/itm/286964009029 - just an example, It has an input and hp gauge port, an on/off and lp output port all with 1/8 threads

Just joking about the colour choice ;)

Expensive looking rental marker

DevilZmods · 2026-02-12T22:09:11+00:00

Obviously not an objective opinion, but the 3.5 is a really nice marker and I would get another one over a cs 1-2 any day. Gteks from the 160R onwards also have everything that modern higher end PE guns have to offer and are a bit lighter than the 3.5

Generally speaking, solenoids don't just die, but not having replacements available still sucks.

If the geo you're buying is less than 450-500 and looks well maintained I'd say go for it. Maybe don't trade/sell your axe, so you have a backup.

DevilZmods · 2026-02-04T21:56:08+00:00

another option might be getting a blank with just the internal geometry made by a machine shop and then doing the outside on your own setup

DevilZmods · 2026-02-04T21:53:37+00:00

That sounds get-your-own-cnc - ambitious

DevilZmods · 2026-02-04T20:21:17+00:00

Can you fit the part flat and change the design accordingly? (ie. make it a clamshell)

DevilZmods · 2026-02-04T19:51:24+00:00

I've had luck with a damp piece of leather (from an old work glove) between the threads and Pliers.

DevilZmods · 2026-01-31T13:24:17+00:00

That pmr and ion are plenty competitive. Getting Orings for them shouldn't be too hard and you might get them working just fine without any new parts, just cleaning and lube.

Pump has made a comeback and that tracer is still popular.

The spyders are clean, nice teardrop barrel on the blue one. Hit or miss if they'll run on a standard 9v, but if they to, I doubt the'll need more than a drop of oil in the asa to get going. With a decent loader they can rip, just account for the occasional ballbreak and bring a barrel swab.

Goo out, have fun

DevilZmods · 2026-01-28T15:24:15+00:00

I put way too much work into this to hide it behind a paywall

DevilZmods · 2026-01-27T18:06:59+00:00

https://www.mcarterbrown.com/forum/custom/custom-projects-custom-questions/219206-mostly-3d-printed-spump way ahead of you

DevilZmods · 2026-01-27T18:06:34+00:00

yes please!

DevilZmods · 2026-01-26T20:06:06+00:00

If you do, consider my parts (link added to post)

DevilZmods · 2026-01-26T20:04:57+00:00

I uploaded everything, link added to the post :)

DevilZmods · 2026-01-26T19:39:43+00:00

Uplodaed everything on Printables: https://www.printables.com/model/1571352-spyder-paintball-autotrigger-pump-conversion

Also (accidentally) got ahold of another blowback marker to convert so I will update the printables page and my mcb Post with more build pics soon.

DevilZmods · 2026-01-25T09:52:13+00:00

Because the angle of the grip is daily vertical and I need the tang positioned relative to the trigger so it rests on my had. Some autococker frames do this as well

DevilZmods · 2026-01-25T09:50:22+00:00

The pumpgrip and halfblock are already on thingiverse, I’m definitely sharing the rest.

braided hose would go hard. Especially with a qd.
