So yes, making bullets? I'm not 100% sure how to do it. I have many pieces of plastic rod that are the right calibre for the Flakka gunz I am making for Da Buzzmork, but I don't seem to be able to make them bullet shaped particularly well.
I have tried using my rotary tool as a lathe, and shaping the end of the bullets with my hobby knives and files. In both cases, I get a really great shape on one side, but because the plastic rod is so thin, it flexes and the other side remains practically flat no matter what I try.
I have tried just shaping them with the knife manually, but that still ends up looking too uneven and lumpy, even for orky standards. Using my files I just end up wearing away the rod without making a decent shape.
I did try a pencil sharpener, but the rods are too thin for the blades and ended up going straight through.
Does any one have any other suggestions or know of any tutorials that might help? My google-fu seems to be failing me so far
