March 12, 20169 yr Is there some non-LEGO or Kragl technique involved in making that ammo chain? From what I can see it is as if there is a hose connecting all of them, but somehow that hose is not present on the top where the ammo chain curves towards the back. Any idea how they did this?

It looks like a very thin strip of some kind of fabric that runs through the middle slot of the pin connectors. Most likely not a lego part, but highly doubtful it's glued. Pretty nifty idea though!

Larry Lars said: The most "non purist" solution here would be the ammo belt made of black paper. The effect it create in this case is good enough to go a bit untraditional I think. Take a sheet of black paper and fold it nice and clean. Then you cut a strip close to the folded part with a pair of scissors. The width should match the middle slits in the pins. (You begin with folding the paper because folding such a thin strip otherwise would make a wrinkled mess that wouldn't fit.) When all the pins are threaded, you leave a bit of paper where you cut the fold open to fold it into an end stop. (See picture above.) Of course you've already made that same procedure at the other end before your first pin.

It was a pleasant surprise of a find for me. I am amazed with how organic the design is and barely looking like something made from LEGO pieces.
