One of the easiest way to get really strong, resilient weapons is have them commercially laser cut out of AR500 armor plating steel. Info:

  • We do this with a service called SendCutSend. The club will do two SendCutSend during the semester, so mind those deadlines.
  • Figure out how your weapon will mate with your motor, gear, pulley, or whatever.
  • Ideally, 3D print a prototype out of PLA or TPU and prove it works before ordering in AR500 steel.
  • Look up the thickness on the SendCutSend site, and post the material, thickness, quantity, and the DXF file(s) to #sendcutsend on Discord.
  • A number of generic weapon designs are available here.
