We used parchment paper and a gluestick for the paper. About 50% success. If you score the paper, then it works better.
@Angrysquirrel AWESOME! Thanks for the review!
Wax/parchment paper are both pretty strong. If you don't have any tissue paper, maybe try a fancy napkin or a cheap paper towel instead? (But tissue paper like in gift bags was the best of my tests. Nice and smooth so it rotates easily, but still easy to blast through.) I'll try to make a video of my reload process next week. I've got a fresh set of 9 cylinders to fill.
[Edit: I will also upload the updated models with a larger center dowel. I thought that would be the weak point, but actually it breaks on the hinge, not the cylinder. But they spin so smooth I'm keeping the change.] (edited)
The instructions say "Weigh down 3 cylinders at a time with a large drink. (See video.)" Although I don't see a link to a video?
@mpaw_203713 I've been working to finalize the barrel and cylinder design and confirm the cylinder advance and salt loads are reliable. I'll retake the reloading video next week. I've upgraded from an E3v2Neo to an A1. My tolerances work without sanding now! I thought I was losing my mind.
I'm definitely happy with the current cylinder. It is likely the final design. In the next couple months I'll probably redesign the barrel to be a little less bulky.
