This section showcases the paintball projects and product designs I assisted in throughout my time with Committed Paintball, from marker parts, to accessories, and player equipment.
For this product I designed and manufactured a prototype for a universal barrel modified to take various sizes of barrel inserts. This improved upon the previous design which used an integral fixed bore, requiring owners to stock up on multiple barrels of differing bore diameter, as opposed to a single one.
Here are three of the completed regulator patterns I designed that were released in various Twister product launches. The machinist let us know the smallest ball end mill he could use was 0.15mm in diameter, so we pushed the designs to the limit to get the tightest patterns possible. While being a challenge to CAD, I greatly appreciate the intricacy and uniqueness we were able to achieve in these regulator designs.
Committed Paintball partnered with Kinetic Paintball to create custom soft ears for the JT ProFlex line of face masks. In this design I opted to make the ears a comfortable soft foam base piece with a molded rubber insert positioned over the users ears, where as most other ears available are single piece rubber/hard plastic material. It took inspiration from a classic but beloved design in the Empire E Flex mask, but in a form factor compatible with JT Proflexes.
Leading up to a Pro event, we were looking to ship out some loaders to our sponsored pro teams but ran into an issue with the feeding of paintballs being sluggish/weak. We determined the solution lied in the pulley system of the loader, so I modified the output pulley to be slightly larger in diameter to increase tension in the system, as well as slightly narrow the channel to better grip the belt and prevent slipping. After some validation, I fabricated around 180 of these pulleys and had them shipped out to our pro teams just in time for the event!
Here are a few examples of some concept medals (gold) I designed and 3d printed for a semi-pro event out in Florida, as well as some collectors chips (red/blue) we would include in our very limited run of Twister markers. The chips were manufactured on a Stratasys Polyjet J750, a very cool cross between a traditional FDM printer and resin printer that can print in full color resin.
