Sup Dakka,

Getting more into warhammer 40k as a chaos space marine player im starting to realize how important MELTA-GUNS are! sadly GW never gives you enough of them to give your units a proper load out... I’ve found my Solution!

All it requires is a little bit of guitar string 1$ , some styrene tubing 1-3$, a little bit of creativity and all the bolter’s that are sitting in your bits box collecting dust.

This was super easy to do but took me a little bit of time only because guitar string isn’t the easiest to work with. All I did was drill exhaust holes into the tubing and pinned it on the front of the bolter I then drilled a couple holes in the gun where the guitar string will sit and boom.... MELTA-GUN!

Here is the final result super straight forward easy to do and cheap as hell, hopefully tou guys will find this useful!



Thanks for the read, Cheers!

Nice cheap conversion job , well done

Hey bognut,

thanks for the comment . just thought I'd throw this out there for everyone else with the same meltagun problem I'm having. I try to help out the dakka community as much as possible since I'm fairly new at the hobbie I mine as well share it with yall. cheers!

I personally would have cut off the Bolter's barrel to make the donor part look less obvious, but very good regardless! :Thumbsup:
