• Making a Physics Gun

Hullo there fellow Gmodders. Recently, I've had the crazy idea to build & solder an ACTUAL physics gun (or gloves, whatever). It will act as a MIDI controller of course. I will build this MIDI controller using Semi Connections and press buttons. Anyone who wants to follow me in this quest to epicness please respond :D I will include pictures throughout the build (I evaluated to be around 5-6 months). Please write your ideas down belooooow!
make a flashy light and play music going Scout kissed a boy and he liked it
Blue ray lasers.
Isn't there something on retail exactly like that?

Have it release deadly microwaves.

Alrighty then.
Yes, I'll make gloves, it's a personal project. I don't care if there are already some on the market. I am not 12. Try older.
Seven?

maybe the laser changes colour when it does/does not touch a prop
[QUOTE=mini peanut5;24572795]maybe the laser changes colour when it does/does not touch a prop[/QUOTE] Fail. It says an ACTUAL physics gun. As in real life. As in not GMod.
Laser = Light. The most a laser will do is to ignite the object you're pointing it at. And it's called "Blu-ray" not "blue-ray". :argh: Why would you use a 405nM laser in the first place? The only thing the laser really could do is pointing at the target, as an aiming device. It should be a 532nm (Green) laser. Green lasers are far more visible to the human eye than blue lasers, thus not needing the same amount of power. (Saving energy.) :science: Now the tractor beam part will be a bit tricky, so I'll leave that to some mad scientist in about 500 years.
Make the toolgun with the actual panning text you'll win my vote.

[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;24591674]Because the physgun beam is blue? Seems pretty obvious to me.[/QUOTE] Well, nothing says that a "tractor beam" is visible, so I'll just go ahead and say that you won't see anything else than a tiny laser and a flying object.
Don't forget the flux capacitors.
[QUOTE=Lipsonfire;24598543]Don't forget the flux capacitors.[/QUOTE] Physgun =/= Time travelling device.
[QUOTE=paul simon;24598577]Physgun =/= Time travelling device.[/QUOTE] Depends how bad your lag is.
A tractor beam may be possible in a sense, but its more of a field if you can get your hands on some directed-field magnets that are powerful enough to pick up metal objects. Still you would have the issue of non-magnetic objects. If you manage to find some powerful magnets, you can use a battery connected to them to make the field larger and stronger, however the only thing that can deliver enough juice with out being the size of a UPS truck would be a Carbon nanotube battery (yes they do exist, but are not marketed yet). Those batteries are the size of a large insect but deliver the same charge potential as a welder.

You do know that "Hullo" in english means that your surprized? right? your suprized that you could write a thread? xD [url]http://lmgtfy.com/?q=define%3A+Hullo[/url] [QUOTE]1. a form of greeting. 2. an exclamation of surprise, astonishment or discovery: eg, Hullo! Look what I've found![/QUOTE] [editline]04:31AM[/editline] OP is banned? lol?
dragon that was not even relevant
Give it a disco ball, hookers plus a stip pole, a bar and a hot tub.
why cant people just post something actually relevant to the damn topic
