A re-work of a Nerf Vulcan mini-gun by adding spinning barrels. Shot on a Panasonic SD5 and edited in FCE4. Instructions on building this mini-gun: I cut the barrel off of the Nerf Vulcan with a bandsaw, leaving the last 2 5/8“ of it and the ridge above it. At that point I separated the gun itself into its two halves by removing the many screws, being careful to note how it all has to go back together. Next, I created the 6 barrel assembly by cutting one length of PVC ½“ I.D. tubing into 6 equal lengths at 8 ¼“.
