I am a junior in mechanical engineering. I come from a farming background, I grew up operating and maintaining large machinery. I hope to apply my degree to future in agricultural robotics. Currently using my skills design and develop products for a small business, along with a previous Internship at Stahlbush island farms engineering department.
Although the name is funny, this was custom Nerf blaster we built from the ground up and mostly 3D printed. It takes a variety of 3D printed shells that can fire a multitude of nerf projectiles, after firing will eject the shell.
With the help of Stahlbush Island Farms I got the material to make and assemble 500 face shields for local nursing homes. The farm was also able to help provide emergency PPE with my 3D printers.
My Roommate and I started a small nerf modding shop where we sell 3D printed original designs and occasionally do commissions for other companies. As the company started a year ago, we have had a lot of fun thinking of and maki...
I designed and built my own computer desk out of extruded aluminum to optimize foot print and storage for college and be able to deconstruct for moving.
Due to having 4 3D printers, I built a printer enclosure with 3D printed parts and polycarbonate for heat controlled enclosure with lights and filament paths for optimized printing.
This is the first blaster CYardNerf had designed, it was a printed and hardware kit to mod a pre-existing nerf blaster called the big shock.
