Tutorial : Exhaust

[petal2thametal]

this is how to make a "real" looking exhaust. and nooooo, there is no smoke comming out :smoke:

1.) Take a normal AA battery and remove the sticker, try not to use any sharp objects because you do not want to scratch the surface.

2.) Now polish the battery with some sort of metal polish (I used Auto sole)

3.) Take a thin piece of tube (this can be purchased at most hobby stores) and polish until its nice and shiny.

4.) Cut a piece off the tube (NOT THE BATTERY) to a length around 1-2cm

5.) Glue the piece of tube to the end of the AA battery

6.) Make a L bracket out of some plastic

7.) Now mount the exhaust onto the body (cut a small groove into the body so the exhaust sits higher)
That's it! you now have a realistic exhaust

You can also use an empty rifle shell casing or a pistol casing if you don't want a neck.
