Mono Mag (or Solo Mag)

UPDATE: new parts have arrived, i have also found a way to retain the barrel better without using a set screw. Progress will be slow due to school. Also I need to rework the pusher o ring tolerances so please check this page around Christmas ill most likely have it redone by then.

Mono Mag

The Spiritual Successor to the Nano Mag Project by Galaxy Cr8r, The Mono Mag is a hybrid between a Solo and a Nano Mag (FUSION!), replacing the Nano Fire (or other jolts) with a quite larger grip (its not that large), and power that isn't disappointing sacrificing for the gimmick (no offense to the Nano Fire, its not its fault.) 

Performance

- Stock, expect 90 - 100 fps (using the non foldable adapter), for reference its a standard Spamf with a 5kg retaliator spring.  

• using the fold able version means you will have worse seals, expect a 30fps drop from the rigid varient.

- Modded with Spring Spacers, i still don't know the fps but they are in the files or use the suggested files below.

Suggested Spacers that i assume are way better than the included ones.

Disclaimer:

Not all the parts needed to construct a Mono Mag are in this remix, You will need to download parts from the original source files (Aka the Nano Mag Project) to build one.

Please use a barrel cap to prevent someone from being impaled by the barrel, awkward! , look around on printables, as one is not provided in the file set. 

Parts (Future Plans)

• Skinny Pusher

• Mag Release

• Collet Stuff

BOM( WIP, O-rings are subject to change as soon as they come in from McMaster-Carr)

O-rings 

The pusher has two versions labeled in the file set.

• The original S.P.A.M.F version intended for a metric O-ring, according to Gavin.

  • 10mm or 11mm OD, 2mm thick

• And the Imperial version using McMaster-Carr hardware

  • #012 O-ring

The Twist Lock for the sealing of the Solo to the main system is from my calipers.

• Metric Version

  •  17.9mm OD, 13.2mm ID, 2.4mm thick

• I am working on the McMaster-Carr version

And finally the proprietary back pusher sealer thingy O-ring (extra proprietary)

• Any Tiny O-ring should work but make sure that you are getting a proper seal when in battery. 

  • The one i am using is 9.9mm OD, (10mm) 6.5 ID, 1.3mm (You will have to stretch the O-ring on to the thingy.)

Filament

Walls - 2 to 4 walls, (Pusher should be mostly walls in my testing 6 walls is best)

Infill - 20% Gyroid 

PLA - should be used for most of the body and the filament pins (substitutions could also be nails like on the original nano mag, although I haven't tried it myself.)

PETG - can be substituted for PLA for the pusher if you are having issues with the Pusher Snapping (Shouldn't if you lubricate the Mono Mag regularly).

Barrel (5inches and Under Suggested)

I used a standard 16OD, 13 ID , Aluminum Barrel from Amazon, you could also use Brass I guess. 

You can also use the original barrel from the solo with the snub front end.

THE M3 SCREW (Optional Quality of Life, Suggest)

• a single tiny m3 x 5 screw is used as a grub screw for further barrel retention.

• PTFE / Teflon tape can also be used to increase friction. (its like 90 cents at Home Depot)

• I am currently looking for a McMaster-Carr screw
