Last spring, Ralph Renfro had a thread on here showing some he made with a Snuffer.  I tried the 160s, but couldn't get the blades hot enough to bend.  I did get some 125s to work.

Hey Guys, I am still relatively new to Tradgang,  but why is it if someone figured out a way to turn $10 worth of straw in to an ounce of gold, someone from Tradgang would come up with a cheaper way LOL.

By the way the head look deadly, I would not want to get shot by one.

I can tell you from experience that the straws are 100% neccessary. There is no way for you to get the blades perfectly squared up and aerodynamic. They will plane massively. Ive made one before with basically the same design, but with hacksaw blades. At 10 yards, that baby would take a very aggressive veer to the ground. Crazy how much plane you get from just a little off set. Get em sharp, put straws on em, and they will work. Something good to test them on are bananas!
