  • AlphaR75, on 02/21/2008, -11/+22That's ace. I want to get three, tape them together and storm the palace guards.
    • hello2usir, on 02/21/2008, -1/+38I reject your use of 'ace' and any attempts to introduce it as a new colloquialism. Please stick with more standard expressions like 'cool' or 'awesome'. I will even accept 'rad' under certain situations. Thank you for your cooperation.
      • MattB123, on 02/21/2008, -2/+21I think it's a regional thing. I suspect a large body of water separates you two.
        • hello2usir, on 02/22/2008, -1/+1I was hopeful that you were right and that 'ace' is some strange British saying. Sadly, that's not the case. He's in NY and I'm in PA. Same continent, country, same region.

          Unfortunately for him this means that if 'That's ace!' ever enters the English lexicon then I'm going to have to hunt this kid down and dole out a fitting punishment. Probably something involving a baseball bat to the face, and then eventually having his name appear in Webster's dictionary as being synonymous with 'baby rapist'.
      • meridian300, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6Pet Detective???
      • DiggzDE, on 02/21/2008, -4/+4Epic?
        • ManOfVirtues, on 02/21/2008, -0/+4I don't know if it qualifies as Epic. Provided it was real (fires bullets, steel chain) than I could see the use of Epic. At that point it wouldn't be an assault rifle, it would be a multi-function tool.
          • DiggzDE, on 02/21/2008, -1/+6My post was to show the use of stupid words that are already accepted as a new age colloquialism (in reference to the first response to the comment). "Ace" is nowhere are bad as the abuse that has been put upon the word "epic". I wasn't actually calling the build epic in itself.

            But thanks for clearing up to anyone who might not have known if this build was epic or not.
          • j3one, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2heh, epic comment.
    • paulringo, on 02/21/2008, -2/+6Ace? That was the worst thing you could have started with. I didnt even read the rest of what you wrote. Never use that term if you want people to listen. hello2usir was right on.
      Later Ace!
    • Manuelmty, on 02/21/2008, -2/+3[Marcus] *****... Looks like they upgraded.
      • lolinyerface, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6*****...looks like they tagged onto the first statement.
    • Nerfdude, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1legendary.
  • zhepp, on 02/21/2008, -13/+2you'd think he would have removed the speaker out of the chainsaw...
  • superPipo, on 02/21/2008, -20/+38Is it only me who felt the Donnie Darko music was out of place?
    • RoroCo, on 02/21/2008, -2/+57It was the same song that they used for there first commercial. It is fitting... although still slightly creepy.
    • NikoKun, on 02/21/2008, -3/+31lol, that song has been around a lot longer than the Donnie Darko movie...

      But on that note, god I love that movie... and I don't care if that makes me Emo or not... XD
      • TaeBoX, on 02/21/2008, -13/+1It doesn't make you emo, it just makes you suck.
        • NikoKun, on 02/21/2008, -1/+5Not my fault that you're too stupid to undstand the Philosophy of Time Travel... =P
      • pastasauce, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3TIME TRAVEL DOES NOT MAKE YOU EMO.
        Thinking Jake Gyllenhaal's character is hot does, however.
      • AZooYorkMystery, on 02/21/2008, -1/+2No, going to the therapist and whining about how hard his life is, that would be emo. Committing arson at some motivational speakers' house because you have a vision? That's just awesome. I think we need to get over this whole "everything that requires philosophical thinking is emo" thing.
    • Asheis, on 02/21/2008, -4/+1No, I definitely felt it was out of place too.
      • supermanred, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1It was well placed in the Gears Of War ad campaign. Very sad song, with visuals of the in-game battles and a single soldier. It also contains the words "it's a very very mad world" which if you've played Gears you would agree with.

        I have to admit it was out of place with the making of a gun video, but it does fit with the Gears theme.
    • Vinny128128, on 02/21/2008, -0/+11For anyone interested, the song is originally by Tears for Fears, from the album The Hurting. Great album, worth the *PERFECTLY LEGAL PURCHASE.

      Donne Darko version is by Gary Jules.
    • laserpig, on 02/21/2008, -3/+0Yeah I definitely felt that was an abuse of the song.
      Friggin' sweet toy hack though.

      (Also, I know Tears for Fears wrote it, but come on, the Michael Andrews version is way better.)
      • Akaji, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1It isn't any more of an abuse than the commercial for Gears of War was - http://youtube.com/watch?v=ccWrbGEFgI8
        The video's author was simply using the same music as the game's ad used (which I personally believe was an amazingly good choice of music for that game's story).
    • StolenLamp, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1What do you want, deth-metal? If any of you saw the commercial for the game, you would know why the song was used. (directed at everyone except the first guy, who knows his *****)
  • Birdoftruth, on 02/21/2008, -0/+34it was cool, the video didn't need to be that long and I got tired of looking at it for awhile.
    • briguymaine, on 02/21/2008, -0/+12I hung in there for about half the video, the point was made!
      • StolenLamp, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1You missed the funny ending, though it would probably be lost on you...
    • Grimdotdotdot, on 02/21/2008, -3/+6Expert hint: Use the 'stop' button when you have had enough.
    • PrincessSalami, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1I know, more like: " Learn how to do this modification and more over at NERDHAVEN.COM"

      Whats worth noting is as I was typing the above, I mistyped and spelled: NERDHAVER.COM
      Which is better?
  • DCLutz77, on 02/21/2008, -1/+2I'd like to place an order...
  • NikoKun, on 02/21/2008, -2/+23Wow, this is one of the coolest nerf mods I've ever seen!
  • Dropperbr, on 02/21/2008, -6/+1BFG?
    Cool
  • ChairShot83, on 02/21/2008, -2/+5That's bonafied BAD ASS.
  • LittleFishChan, on 02/21/2008, -1/+4That reminds me, I haven't had a good NERF fight in a long time. Those things were so much fun...
  • iparker, on 02/21/2008, -2/+23But does it shoot nerf darts?
    • Zuggy, on 02/21/2008, -0/+22Good question, I have a feeling it no longer does ;(
    • OUberLord, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1Actually, I have one of those longshot rifles that they used as the body and have taken mine apart to mess around inside of it. It looks like it would still function just fine, though obviously without the ability to mount the front pistol since they heavily modifed the front of the gun.

      Heck, here I was thinking how awesome it would be to put a brass barrel and stronger spring in mine to make it shoot farther.
    • alamir, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6If you watched the end of the video you'd have seen him firing them.
  • IHaveIssues, on 02/21/2008, -2/+5The nerds have been busy.
  • nathangl, on 02/21/2008, -1/+8Why is there even a toy chainsaw liek that to begin with?? where the hell was that found?
    • TooSquirrely, on 02/21/2008, -0/+4I'm guessing it was a toy construction set. Probably with advertisement like "Now you too can be a lumberjack!!"
      • Disease, on 02/21/2008, -0/+8Or from the My First Serial Killer kit.
        • AgentMull, on 02/21/2008, -0/+9You had one too?
        • IIIKrazyKiDDIII, on 02/21/2008, -3/+1Fischer Price My First Serial Killer Kit haha thats great.
    • Vinny128128, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6I had one when I was a kid. It was a bit bigger, and had a pull cord. When you pulled the cord it played the cutting noise and had the chain spun, though the chain was pretty much like a necklace.

      Oh, how toy standards have dropped since the early 90s. I can only imagine what it was like in the 50s, when toys were made of sharpened aerodynamic heating coils.
  • revansii, on 02/21/2008, -8/+6I'll probably get dugg down, but whatever. I will never understand how Digg works. This was submitted almost a month ago (http://www.digg.com/xbox/Toy_chainsaw_Nerf_gun_tim ... and never made front page.

    Here is the original source of how it was made: http://nerfhaven.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10 ...
  • Zeldafreak104, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1I'm over at my little step brother's house, and he has the same nerf gun... hmmm, now I need a chainsaw...
  • loves2spooge, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1I thin that's ***** crazy...
  • Godlike, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1Who's got a pic of the gun in-game?
  • gamgee911, on 02/21/2008, -0/+17He doesn't have any furniture?
    • Import98, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3He obviously spends all his money modding nerf guns.......DUH!
    • wondertwins, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1he used his lancer to destroy all the furniture.
  • billski, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2too much free time
    • Enthwar, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3Hmm, the same could be said about someone going on digg and leaving useless comments. Have you ever heard of a hobby? No one is busy 24/7. Who are you to judge what they do in their free time. At least they are making it, instead of ragging on it because they couldn't be that creative.
    • KingGorilla, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2lucky
  • Blankford, on 02/21/2008, -1/+3dude thats ***** awesome
  • JohnnyRad, on 02/21/2008, -0/+8its good to see other things like weapons from videogames can be made - my friends just turn them into "tobacco pipes"
    • Vinny128128, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1i gave my friend a jar of honey once, and he turned it into a bong :(
  • gravytrain73, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1So effing cool.
  • LogicBomB, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2They should have loaded up the kid's shoulder with blood squids or whatever they are called that squirts blood for movies.
  • Teku, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3http://nerfhaven.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10 ...

    Much more in-depth instructions with a ton of pics.
    • Mr.Gone, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1Dupe, read the comments
      • Teku, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2Yes, a comment posted within 1 minute of mine... I will devote a greater portion of my life to refreshing comments.
  • Namingway, on 02/21/2008, -4/+2I feel bad for this guy, because it's painfully obvious this thing lost it's "gun" functionality.

    I don't know if this guy would be a fun dad or just a crazed lunatic...
    • secran, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6nope, the gun still fires.
      • Namingway, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1How do you know? I never saw it fire.
        • Jimmeeee, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3First way: the end of the video shows him using it. It fires normally.

          Second way: the nerfhaven page showing the process of modding it shows he never does anything to the longshot that would prevent it from working.
  • Phantom1045, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3Dugg for the ending of the video where the guy obviously had his little brother act out getting sawed.
  • wesniles, on 02/21/2008, -12/+2its time to grow up and stop being a manchild.... this is just ridiculous
    • veriix, on 02/21/2008, -0/+7Are you suggesting we buy real guns and mod real chainsaws into them...if so I like your thinking.
  • toppgun, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1i have always wondered if the GOW chainsaw is powered by petroleum or emulsion. does anyone know? Isn't emulsion their version of petroleum?
  • axm9505, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2did the guy look like a serial killer anyway or was that just me, despite the retarded mask in the beginning he still looked sketchy, and wtf is with the no furniture bit, only a big white room with a table in the middle and a water jug near it......... either hes in mom's basement making toy weapons to kill his ex or he's just got wayy too much time on his hands and not enough furniture
    • 1Cycopath, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1You need to have a job before you can buy furniture . . . . .
      • Godlike, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2I know a girl who got a leather sofa for a BJ once...
  • Aaroniza, on 02/21/2008, -2/+1It doesn't even shoot anymore, only has chainsaw ability. Bad.
    • Jimmeeee, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1That's... not true at all. It shoots normally.
  • troycott, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1Funny thing is the guy probably thinks this nerf-mod will get him laid
  • entrophize, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1WANT.
  • Iggins, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3http://nerfcenter.com/reviews.htm Ahh, the golden age of nerf... i loved the sneakshot. Now THERES something the public got before the military caught up. Nerf 1994, SWAT early 2000.
    • veriix, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1Best Nerf gun EVAR! I broke a window with it using the suction darts instead of arrows (only suckers used the arrows):
      http://nerfcenter.com/reviews-of/Arrowstorm.htm
      • Srmoocow, on 02/21/2008, -0/+0am I the only one that felt nerf needed to make larger ammo clips? reloading always took to long when i wanted to blast my brother with darts
    • MikeGrenade, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1I used to have a Secret Shot II that I stripped all the safety mechanisms out of and changed the barrel to fire the small darts. That thing's power was ridiculous.
    • StolenLamp, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1Haha, WTF?! They have one called the Ramrod, and if the name isn't funny enough, it looks like a dildo!
  • XIStEw13IX, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1That thing is sick nasty kick ass, nerf should pay this guy and put these in stores.
  • thestaton, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1meh, it doesn't slaughter anything. just blinks them to death. call me when it does something cool.
  • freeboarder1402, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2lol, the chainsaw started to sound like a toy train after a while
  • mojo00, on 02/21/2008, -3/+1My God!!!........ This man has no life!!!..........
  • MasterPlayer, on 02/21/2008, -0/+4Wow, someone is really hyped for Gears of War 2.
  • brooksadsit, on 02/21/2008, -2/+1That's wicked cool, however this guy obviously has no life. Did you notice the apartment had absolutely no furniture.
  • adonison, on 02/21/2008, -0/+0Can somebody explain to me why anyone would want neon lights on their gun? It screams "shoot me! shoot me!"
  • K3LL3R, on 02/21/2008, -0/+0cute kid
  • Spartan61, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1sweet
  • Bazzy, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1dugg for chainsawing the little kid.
  • acidwire90, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2Nothing in the world is cooler than this.
  • Gravey9, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1nice piece of plastic you have there kido
  • elister, on 02/21/2008, -1/+0Its bad enough some toys look like real guns, but to purposely turn an obvious toy into something a cop will think is a weapon in the dark of night, yeah, not a good idea. Its all fun and games until someone loses their LIFE!
    • cheseball, on 02/22/2008, -0/+0Yea but most guns don't glow, i think that would tip the cop off.
  • coldliquidflame, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1"Next on Systm I make a Gears of War Lancer out of my kid's toys"
  • Jimmeeee, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1He has a ton of cool mods over at nerfhaven, anyone who's interested should check them out.
  • hayden.evans, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1did anyone see that guy's face?
  • supersteve, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1cool but man this guy needs a life and to get laid.
  • btcs41, on 02/22/2008, -0/+0Finally. My 2 year old can chainsaw with me!
