I've been thinking about doing one myself for a while now. Thinking I'm going to use trip wire and remote control by using an old servo I have laying around :) Good range that way. Would love having a motion sensor but I'm not that skilled with electronics :/ Anyway, thanks for the inspiration and again, good work!
@GuFc1000 haha, I believe 15 pounds is converting into about $30 these days and there is not a chance one of these would get sold for that little. That barely covers half of the material expenses. I laugh at your ridiculous offer.
@GuFc1000 fantastic!! so, can you send me a video or similar thing about how make this claymore? thanks . sorry for my mistakes, i´m a spanish boy. if you ask this, i will give you my email for send me the instructions for make this. thanks again.
Very nice! For improvement, I would suggest using a ultrasonic sensor since those work in the dark and using RC for the detonator. I'm actually thinking of building an array of these myself. Thanks for the circuit schematic, that will be quite handy.
This is absolutely amazing, holy shit. You are a goddamn genius. I've been trying to develop some airsoft mines (both M18 Claymore styled and POMZ styled) and this is way more advanced than I would have ever considered. Everything is way easier said than done, and it must have taken you quite a while to get all that stuff working. Awesome job man.
And have you though of using peas or beans instead of pellets? They're less expensive than biopellets, still biodegrade, and you can grow your ammo for the claymores!
This thing looks great, but after reviewing your video and the pictures on the link provided, i still have a question. Your motor is a rotating motor, how does that release the lever? I see some copper tube on the smaller arm where the safety pin attaches, but i don't understand how the motor releases it.
@TheLittleman512 no I will not be putting together a guide. The wiring schematic is in the link in the description and there are other comments you can read through. If you can't figure it out from those you really have no business tying to build this.
@Stegs365 there used to be one in the video description but it doesn't have the pics anymore. I will not be able to post a wiring diagram, however the motion sensor is a parallax PIR module. It's not overly difficult to figure out how to wire it up if you know what you're doing.
that is freaking unbelieable.....did u make this from scatch? im in the works of making my own out of an old security deposit box that drab olive. using same mouse traps and such but im thinking i dont have the expertice to make one with a remote or sensor so im going with a simple fishing line trip wire aproch
@22Goofball22 That is a reasonable price compared to a store boughten claymore. I love how you have 3 ways of detonation, that is extremely practical and smart, rather than just have motion or tripwire.
ok i am impressed lol and i am sure once more people see the video you will have alot of people wanting it and it looked like it worked great!!!! AWSOME
I made a claymore like this, but i didn't see this video before. But I couldn't pull the trigger out with an electric motor. How do you solve this problem? Also what kind of circuit you used? I made an IR controlled mine. Can you help me? Can you send me the circuit you used?
@roddyp15 I'm not selling them, this model still has many problems and isn't ready to be sold. Furthermore I don't see myself ever making these to sell for profit, because trust me they're not cheap to make. All in all still less than retail but there still isn't a big enough profit margin for it to be worth my time.
dude thats soo cool. I do this stuff all the time, im working on a rocket right now and its something that no body has thought of yet. anyway can you give me a detailed descriptive of that claymore and the componets list and how to build it and what ever.
I have two words OVER KILL way to much but very nice i like and why have a motion sensor and trip wire they are pretty much one in the same please reply
@IisAtomik The difference between a motion sensor and a trip wire is that a motion sensor is faster to setup and doesn't tell friend from foe, whereas a trip wire takes significantly longer to setup and can easily be avoided if the location of the wire is known allowing freindlies to pass safely infront of the claymore. Not to mention when you're out in the field it never hurts to have options.
Hi Im tryin to make a basic one of these with a trip wire but am unsure of the locking pin connected to the trip wire i be very appreciative if you could let me know as soon as you can Thanks
No way that is the coolest claymore I have yet to see you should really think about selling them. If you decide to make them send me a message I'll be happy to buy one or three
Awesome! I love it! Redwolf has one with a laser tripwire now, but I like your version with the motion sensor much better. How far does the motion sensor detect movement?
@22goofball22 also a short explanation for the schematic explaining what the ]|I pyramid, VVV spacers , || crossbars and _ \_ bridge symbols stand for.
Hey man thats awesome, one question though, what are the blue connectors on the circuit board and what do they do. And where can they be bought. Also how many volts did u use to power the motion sensor? Any help would be great, thanks!
@CavemanJoe67 everything for the circuit board was bought at Radio Shack. The blue connectors are for connecting the trip wire switch, motion sensor power switch, motor ect.. The motion sensor is running off a 9v but there is a 5Kohm resistor between the power and the sensor.
Awesome thanks, and sry but 3 more quick questions. I cant find a 60 microfarad capacitor, do u know another source other than radio shack or am i being retarted and cant find it on the site?, and which reed relay are u using, the .5a/12v or 1a/5v? and last question, concerning your circuit diagram, where is the 3rd switch (near the top hooked into the transistor) located on the claymore cause in your vid u only mention the 2 switches linked directly to the 555s? Thanks for your help!!
@CavemanJoe67 their are three switches for the 555 timer your talking about. One for the tripwire, one for the manual detonator, and the last one is the transistor which is turned on and off buy the motion sensor. The timing equation for 555 timers is 1.1 x R x C, where R is resistance and C is capacitance. just find a combination to suit your timing needs. And I'm using 5V reed relay, don't worry about running a 9V on it, it won't hurt it. Best of luck to you.
@GentlemanLillePer if you go to the link in the description then there is photo of the circuit diagram. Which is easily the most complicated part. The rest of the claymore is realtively simple and self explanitory to build. read through the other comments as well for more information.
hey man, i was wondering if you could tell me what to use for them because i really need to build some for my team.. or could you possibly sell me one?
pretty badass dude, great job! im just getting into airsoft and im definitely going to make one of these. i'll upload a video whenever i get it done. and thanks for providing the circuit diagram, that will help a lot.
Kudos dude, looks fantastic. However, every design can be improved on. My thoughts are gps transmitter and reciever because one of the main issues is finding them again after the game. Just some constructive thought process.
Well, this one actually cost alot. Probably almost as much as a retail calymore. However that is really because I had to buy alot of stuff that I didn't need because I wasn't sure exactly how I was going to make it.
I could probably reproduce it for about 40-50 bucks. And that's really only because of the ciruit board.
I probably wouldn't sell them. Unless I was helping out a local team or something. And then I would probably only ask that building expenses be covered.
The divider between the circuit board and the arms has a small piece cut out . And there is fishing line tied to the motor that is run underneath the divider through the cutout and is then tied to the lever. So that way when the motor turns the fishing line pulls the lever down.
This is by far the coolest claymore I have ever seen anyone build. I can't wait to build one myself. Question. I know that V1 and V2 had housings made of wood. The housing for V3 looks alot different, what is it made out of ? Did you make it yourself or purchase it? Thanks in advance
It's made out of 1/4" plexiglass. I used a heat gun to soft it so it could be bent into the the cone shape. However an iron would proabaly work just aswell.
Check the link in the Description. If you scroll down there is a picture of the circuit diagram used on for the circuit board. I've made some modifications however, the circuit board now has a independent power supply from the motor and the motor runs off of one 9V and has a circuit breaker between the power and the motor. Good luck if you try and build one.
you should delay the time it takes to activate the claymore after the motion sesnor has been tripped, cuz i saw that as soon as your hand went into the view of the motion sensor, the claymore activated, but if it activated a second or two after the motion sensor detected movement, there would be a higher chance of it hitting its target.
actually I couldn't even imagine the odds going up with a delayed detonation.
Think about it, if it was delayed the target could potentialy walk all the way through the line of fire before the claymore actually goes off. If anything it needs to be faster.
well i meant more for if its around a corner, cuz someone probably isnt going to be running around the corner, the claymore would just go off an he would jump back around the corner, but like i said i have no idea how well it works, i just thought id give you some advice.
but ya your right, in most situations, the timer shouldnt be delayed, but if it was delayed by half a second and it was around a corner there would probably be a better chance right?
I'm sorry if maybe I'm not thinking this is as great an idea as you do, but the basic philosophy is that the sensor goes off when you're in front of the claymore. so you want the claymore to go off immediately because that's when your going to be right infront of it..
Maybe it's just me but the only thing a delay is good for is letting the guy jump out of the way before getting hit.
Nice work!!!! You trapped the other guy....

how did u make the kegs
RyanDement012 2 years ago
I made them from 1/4" bar stock steel. spent about 15min. on the ol' belt sander to give them a point and put a couple of holes in them.

Mine used actual gunpowder charge. Buuuuuut I stoped using it after Mat had to pull out several BBs out of his thigh with a pocket knife.XD

pretty badass dude, great job! im just getting into airsoft and im definitely going to make one of these. i'll upload a video whenever i get it done. and thanks for providing the circuit diagram, that will help a lot.

Kudos dude, looks fantastic. However, every design can be improved on. My thoughts are gps transmitter and reciever because one of the main issues is finding them again after the game. Just some constructive thought process.

How much is the cost to build one? Would you ever consider selling them?
d8hoOk 2 years ago
Well, this one actually cost alot. Probably almost as much as a retail calymore. However that is really because I had to buy alot of stuff that I didn't need because I wasn't sure exactly how I was going to make it.
I could probably reproduce it for about 40-50 bucks. And that's really only because of the ciruit board.
I probably wouldn't sell them. Unless I was helping out a local team or something. And then I would probably only ask that building expenses be covered.

I'm having trouble figuring out how the motor trips the lever. Can you please explain? Thanks again

The divider between the circuit board and the arms has a small piece cut out . And there is fishing line tied to the motor that is run underneath the divider through the cutout and is then tied to the lever. So that way when the motor turns the fishing line pulls the lever down.

This is by far the coolest claymore I have ever seen anyone build. I can't wait to build one myself. Question. I know that V1 and V2 had housings made of wood. The housing for V3 looks alot different, what is it made out of ? Did you make it yourself or purchase it? Thanks in advance

It's made out of 1/4" plexiglass. I used a heat gun to soft it so it could be bent into the the cone shape. However an iron would proabaly work just aswell.
I used epoxy to put it together.
22Goofball22 2 years ago
hey dude! this is awesome! would you mind telling me how to make the electronics? this is the best ive seen. please do tell.

Check the link in the Description. If you scroll down there is a picture of the circuit diagram used on for the circuit board. I've made some modifications however, the circuit board now has a independent power supply from the motor and the motor runs off of one 9V and has a circuit breaker between the power and the motor. Good luck if you try and build one.

Pretty sweet!! It has to be the best homemade claymore I have seen!! Congrats!

What motion sensor did you use for your mine?
AirsoftCreations 2 years ago
It's a Parallax PIR Module, got it from Radioshack for $10.
22Goofball22 2 years ago
you should delay the time it takes to activate the claymore after the motion sesnor has been tripped, cuz i saw that as soon as your hand went into the view of the motion sensor, the claymore activated, but if it activated a second or two after the motion sensor detected movement, there would be a higher chance of it hitting its target.

but i havent tested it yet so maybe its perfect, just thought id give some feed back
gamerguy12345 2 years ago
actually I couldn't even imagine the odds going up with a delayed detonation.
Think about it, if it was delayed the target could potentialy walk all the way through the line of fire before the claymore actually goes off. If anything it needs to be faster.
22Goofball22 2 years ago
well i meant more for if its around a corner, cuz someone probably isnt going to be running around the corner, the claymore would just go off an he would jump back around the corner, but like i said i have no idea how well it works, i just thought id give you some advice.
maybe an adjustable timer?
gamerguy12345 2 years ago
but ya your right, in most situations, the timer shouldnt be delayed, but if it was delayed by half a second and it was around a corner there would probably be a better chance right?
gamerguy12345 2 years ago
I'm sorry if maybe I'm not thinking this is as great an idea as you do, but the basic philosophy is that the sensor goes off when you're in front of the claymore. so you want the claymore to go off immediately because that's when your going to be right infront of it..
Maybe it's just me but the only thing a delay is good for is letting the guy jump out of the way before getting hit.
