Welcome to the GunCAD Wiki, a knowledgebase for the design, creation, maintenance, and culture of DIY firearms and accessories.
New Around Here?
Before anything, users are encouraged to read About and Disclaimers. After that, here are some useful resources:
- Joining the Community
- Finding Tested Gun Designs
- Buying and Configuring a Printer
- Printing a Gun
- Filing a Form 1 for a DIY suppressor or SBR
And these off-site links are useful for specific domain knowledge:
- The Polymaker Wiki - Contains a ton of useful information about general printing practices and Polymaker's plastics
- 3D2A Wiki - A Reddit-safe wiki for /r/3d2a
Want to Contribute?
First of all, print a gun. You should have experience with DIY firearms firsthand before you push an edit. Once you've done that, here are some things you could do:
- Add a wanted article or a page for a wanted category
- Polish up some stub articles
- Create a guide
- Document some jargon in the glossary
- Write articles on notable designs
- If you're a manager for one, create a page for your release group and add it to this category
Please ensure articles are written with an encyclopedic tone.
Have Questions?
If you wanna discuss an article, use its discussion page -- it's what they're there for. If you have a more general question, hit up the GunCAD Index Matrix Chat.
