i was messing around with some old screen from a window and i thought . hey this could work for spent 1/35 brass.

step 1. get some screen , this is the nylon(?) not the metal screen


step 2 . cut a vertical string as close as you can to the horizontal sring


step 3. cut off the short horzontal strings . 30 spent rounds



i think if you paint the screen first it work beter.

That is simple and cool idea. A very easy way to make several spent rounds without too much effort.

A person could cut several strings, paint them brass, and then cut off the individual casings and end up with one end of the casing being black giving it a good representation of a spent round.

Neat idea. Thanks for sharing.

Really neat idea. I use old computer CPU's, I cut the brass prongs off with a motor tool get about a hundred per CPU. I get the processor from a repair shop in town. They'er happy to get rid of the old ones. Anyway another option. I think your's is better.

Hello
That's a very interesting idea, will be giving it a try.
Thanks for sharing.

Now, if you can come up with an easy way of making "spending" brass.....

Easier method, just cut thin brass wire to desired leagnth. No muss or fuss of painting small stuff and good to go.

Thanks for the heads up. You can never have enough spent brass? Cheers Geraint
