In this apprenticeship I teach you how to make Han Solo's hero blaster from Star Wars: A New Hope and others in the series. Han Solo is a favorite of many and to pay Han tribute in light of his recent passing, you can carry on his legacy as a scoundrel, a ruffian, and a scruffy looking nerf herder by making your very own replica blaster and Cosplaying as the great Han Solo at your next Comic Con or Costume party! If you are going to be taking it to a con you will want to create an orange colored plug for the flash hider! :)

This build is made of easy to obtain plastics like PVC, Polly Plastics, and an inexpensive Airsoft Gun. Overall cost with the template price included, you can make this Blaster for under $20 in materials cost. It is made of Comic-Con friendly materials . So no matter whether your Han Solo cosplay will be for a Convention, to watch the Star Wars Ep. 7 for the 10th time, or for filming a fan film this Blaster build will hold up to the closest of scrutiny and will blow Hasbro toys and black series editions out of space like a death star or star killer.

The materials are easy to work with, takes minimal tools, and can be done in your apartment or a small space as you can see in the video :) You don't need a lathe or other large woodshop or metal working tools to build and it is stronger and more water resistant than paper, cardboard, wood, or other materials.

If you make this build, comment and tell me about it and please send me pictures, I would love to see them and hear about it!
