So, I am currently in the process of moving, and a few days ago, I had to clean out my closet. After I had gotten all of the big things out of the way, there were quite a few stray parts that had been left on the ground. With these parts, I decided to make something. This idea is like one of those shower thoughts: You’d just be pondering life n’ such and you’d have an epiphany. From that shower, this MOC was born.
And before anyone comments on it, yes I know the color scheme is all janked up. These were the only parts I currently have at my disposal.
On top of that, I can think of a number of ways to improve this MOC. Every product has its flaws. Besides the colors, I wanted to also have the technic lift arms as handles, instead of the bricks with holes on the sides. It also has a few performance issues.
As you can see, it easily can become hung on itself, so I am already trying to figure out new ways to improve it. I do believe that a part of the problem is that the weight of this MOC is significantly different from an actual balisong. This thing is nearly weightless compare to a real one. I guess, just think of this model as a prototype. I want to make more like this that fit my vision of what I had originally intended. That being said, what would you guys do to make it better? Did you like it? Did you hate it? Tell me what you think.
