				<title>ventilated gun barrels? Scratch building materials wanted</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ So I consider myself a pretty competent scratch builder but I cant seem to make ventilated gun barrels like in the picture below.<br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/278063-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/10/4/278063_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> Any useful tips would be appreciated. Does anyone sell barrels pre-drilled? maybe an armor website?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ The holes aren't in the barrel itself, but in the cooling shroud. To get a similar effect you might want to try picking up a couple of different diameters of plastic tube. Drill holes in the wider one and slip it over the narrower one. How tightly they fit together is up to you.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Flninty is dead on.<br /> <br /> Look at this guy's exhaust for his backpack:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/119380-Conversion%2C%20Grots%2C%20Orks%2C%20Warboss%2C%20Warhammer%2040%2C000.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/7/10/119380_sm-Conversion%2C%20Grots%2C%20Orks%2C%20Warboss%2C%20Warhammer%2040%2C000.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> It's basically 2 plastic tubes fitting over each other, with holes drilled in the outer one. If you want it to oook regular, draw them out.. Eyeballing this is a lot harder then it looks <img src="/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif" border="0">]]></description>

				<title>ventilated gun barrels? Scratch building materials wanted</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ That's just it. It is very difficult to drill holes in weapon size tubes. Much harder to make them look regularly spaced. I was hoping someone might have a source for predrilled stock. I found a couple brass machine guns with perforated shrouds, but the scale is to small for a <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(3);'>40k</span> weapon. I have some very thin plasticard and I think I will experiment with punching holes in it And wrapping it around a rod. I just have to make one and I can cast the rest. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ buy some plasticard tubing (It's readily available at the shop I go to for mine, don't know for you) then take a ruler and run it straight down the side of the tube, marking with felt pen at regular intervals where you want your hole. Take drill, drill each one out.  Then take drill, insert into hole and sight down tube to make sure the drill bit is fully bisecting the tube and touching the other side, then drill a matching hole this way. Do that for each previously drilled hole so you now have 2 sides of the tube finished.  Then turn the tube 45 degrees, take your ruler again but when marking your drill points offset them from the first set (so you end up with a .`.`.`.`. sort of look) and repeat the process.  Voila.]]></description>
