im new to this whole idea of homemade guns, ive been building AEG's from parts and stuff but never this

i think these guns are really cool!

ive got my design for my first ghetto cloud

i have a vitamin water bottle for a chamber with a spring gun inner barrel in the bottom for my barrel

i have yet to buy the blowgun, but i will soon, and which kind should i get?

i will be using ghetto HPA which is a 3 liter shasta bottle with a schrader valve in the cap pumped to around 90 psi

ill have a hose running from my blowgun to another hose from a bike pump

the bike pump hose is the one with the thing on the end that fixes to schraders


so yea as far as i know, i dont see many people, or no people at all, using ghetto soda bottle hpa tanks

ill have about 3 of them in a backpack.. like a classic airsoft gun


so itd be great if somebody could tell me how a cloud works!

thanks alot!

--will

simply a cloud just blows the BB's around inside the chamber, the barrel creates a low pressure, and the BB,s get sucked into the barrel and blown out

ooooooooooooo i see, so it doesnt matter where i attach the barrel to the chamber? the bb's will just get sucked in?

yup its very simple good luck!

so is there an average fps for clouds? shooting at maybe 80 psi?

just wondering

A cloud works a bit like an air-mix lotto machine with a barrel. As regards to the sort of performance you can expect, it depends on many things - chamber volume, barrel length, barrel tightness, valve type etc, and remember that a BBMG achieves its power not by individual BB power but by the sheer weight of fire it can put on a concentrated area.

i see, so many factors are included to how good a gun like this will function.

haha, if i get shot in the back with something shooting over 350, im in bad shape, one of those soda bottles might go....XP

thanks alot for everybody's help and i hope to have this constructed within a few days!

ill post pics when its all done!

ps. changed chamber to a square medicine bottle to try and achieve higher fps

what are spudbux? and what do they doo?......

Uh kinda a novelty thing to help you buy a sig and your very own sgort . Next time just PM a senior.

How does a cloud work?

Well i believe the sun's rays heat up the water in the hydrosphere and the water evaporates and condenses in the air and becomes a cloud.
When they get heavy and reach their capacity of water they start to rain.

Hope I've Helped.

Happy Spuddin'.

Edit- I made joke.

OMG I didnt notice

Sarcasm Detector going off the Scale!!!!! Gloohivan!

yea so i finished it!! ^.^ it looks ghetttttoooo as hell though

shoots pretty far! about 50 yards but it has a low fps, can barely go through paper. high ROF too



p.s the barrel is a little bit crooked at the moment, thats what the tape was there for


please tell me what you think and how i can improve!!

thanks

lmao this is so ghetto. Did you use TAPE to connect your air to your chamber?

no its just there to get a better seal

cus i made the hole a little too big, and the chamber started turning because of its weight

now its awesome though, i put this foam carrot thing over the barrel, so it looks like a carrot in the bottom of a medicine bottle with a hose coming out of it.... XD

that tape on the barrel is gone now, it was just there to push the barrel down a little bit so i wouldn't be shooting down birds
