Jesus christ $1000 for a tube, microcontroller, and leds.

You can make this over a weekend for like $60 tops.

Should we be making spaceshit lightsabers?

I have a lathe and lots of scrap.

I'm not invested in any lore enough to care so I'd need some dimensional drawings.

thats exactly what i was thinking. I was black smithing for a while and pounding rail road spikes flat into knife like shape and selling on pinterest for $75 a pop. Tards would go nuts for them!

0 Corporal-Hicks 2019-10-22

TBF the wand (?) portion looks well machined and complex. But its aluminum, some chink could pop that out for $250 tops. Shit even legit engineered suppressors are like $500-$800 right now.

2 NathansFamousDogpill 2019-10-22

You could buy monocore aluminum suppressors from china on ebay for like 50 dollars. Might still be able to. The suppressor market in the US is a complete racket cause theres a 200 dollar entry fee so people think paying hundreds for a metal tube is reasonable

3 Corporal-Hicks 2019-10-22

You still can. But ive read that some people, who bought from some specific vendors, got door knocks from the ATF.

1 NathansFamousDogpill 2019-10-22

Oh yea its a hell of a gamble. But my point is that suppressors arent exactly the most complicated devices around

1 TheLordHighExecu 2019-10-22

Many dogs died for this information

1 trexmundi 2019-10-22

Can't you Form 1 a suppressor, or is that still $200 if you go that route?

1 NathansFamousDogpill 2019-10-22

Still 200, but thats the way to go if you have the equipment and knowhow to build and repair it

2 MoreSpikes 2019-10-22

Like really my dude you can't replace any of that furniture? Homeboy's not getting into the Spikes interior design catalogue this year.

Plus who has that much clutter and decides "you know what I need? a piece of trash just like the rest of this shit, only this one lights up. Yeah seems a fair trade for a grand."

4 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

OK I was legitimately disappointed in this post.

I expected neet levels of indoor trash, not some damn books on a side table.

You can do better.

I'm half tempted to show you my clutter to give you a future reference point of what clutter actually is.

6 trexmundi 2019-10-22

I second legit disappointment? You see that tile? Not only is it decent tile, it's not cracked, covered in grime, dust, crumbs, or those weird black spots you get when you spill something sticky. That tile has been regularly getting swept and hit with pinesol.

I was expecting piles of discarded Mountain Dew, vape juice condensing on the walls, and loose underwear with visible shart stains.

I want my money back.

1 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

Apparently I need to set the bar for lack of give a shit in homeowning.

Rentals don't count we already know 99% won't get your security deposit back.

2 GeauxHouston22 2019-10-22

I always got my deposit back when I rented, but then again I'm not a disgusting fucking pig

3 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

Ayyy 1% gang.

3 trexmundi 2019-10-22

Wait, is it not typical to get all or the majority of your deposit back? I always sorta figured the slobbo neckbeard nests didn't, but they are not the exception?

2 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

Based on my friends who own investment properties, the majority of people who are career renters don't get their deposit back. Rightfully so.

There's a bit of shenanigans on both sides but if I was in the landlord game I wouldn't rent to people who wouldn't show me the condition of their prior living space.

I sure as fuck wouldn't rent to anyone who can't figure out simple shit and that's few and far between in reality.

I have many friends who were surprised to not get a full deposit back after leaving the landlord on the hook for several trips to the dump.

People are fucking stupid.

2 UpvoteIfYouDare 2019-10-22

The guy who did the walk-through of my last place asked if I had hired a professional cleaner after I cleaned it. I was worried that I'd lose most of the deposit over a stain on the back wall behind my desk legspace after I couldn't get it out.

1 GeauxHouston22 2019-10-22

ol boy has a fuckin' landline phone sitting there, you're underestimating how cringe this is

2 trexmundi 2019-10-22

Landline phones aren't necessarily cringe, just a sign of senility and boomerdom.

1 MoreSpikes 2019-10-22

I was raised in the cathbol cult so OP would have been cast out of the town for that heinous display of homeownership.

I feel like the church would pick for the next good ol' fashioned stake burning if your clutter situation is indeed that bad.

1 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

The church can eat a big fat get the fuck off my property. If one of those bitch ass steppers tried to give me shit about it I'd gladly bring more rusty junk home to fuck up their property value.

I bought in the woods so I wouldn't deal with pissant nitwits with nothing better to do besides organize woven baskets and sweep the same inevitable dust and fill the collection plate on Sundays.

I'm already at one junk truck, one dead mower, and I'm about to drop a 6000 pound trenching machine in my front yard later this week.

Inside my home is just as bad.

If it raises your blood pressure I'll gladly brave the rain and take some pics for you.

3 MoreSpikes 2019-10-22

You ever heard the expression 'cleanliness is next to godliness'? Satan smiles when you drop rusty lawn equipment in the front of your property.

Everyone knows your value in life is equated to the quality of your lawn.

2 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

Shit if it's about the lawn I'm gona be doing about 5 million worth of terracing and paying for only my drunken time to repair the machine and do the work.

Wouldn't be surprised if one of your type wanted to have similar work done.

My lawn is already awe inspiring.

But seriously, me and this devil guy sound like we could be friends. https://imgur.com/a/E5pw7AQ

Now it's my turn to be disappointed, the truck isn't even on cinderblocks!

1 Adramolino 2019-10-22

Comment's gone, what did the lawn look like?

1 MoreSpikes 2019-10-22

Not a sight of trash, truck with a full set of wheels and tires! No rusty hobo drum, no beer cans, no mound of cig butts! Shameful tbh

2 GeauxHouston22 2019-10-22

holy shit that truck 😂😂

2 Curbside_dental 2019-10-22

I scrapped my 94 Buick on 100 spoke knock off wheels and I swore to never let something so beautiful ever go again.

Thus: boogtruck sits ready for duty.

2 MoreSpikes 2019-10-22

Also this is starshit, not capeshit ... or is it? In glorious finish to 2010s decade starshit has merged with capeshit to create "empowered, diverse heroes." You know, the type of people who are such worthless consumers that they'll buy anything with a disney brand on it.

2 Chuck-Brown 2019-10-22

to create "empowered, diverse heroes."

That doesn't make them the same thing. If you really need to be lazy about remembering different kinds of garbage it's still more cloakshit than capeshit. They do literally wear cloaks rather than capes, after all.

Except Lando, who had a half-cape I guess.
