I built this out of a pill bottle, a blowgun, and a piece of 1/4" plastic pipe I found laying around.
The pipe is too wide, so the BB's have no accuracy whatsoever, they spray like wild. The ROF is very high though, The chamber empties completely in about a second.
My budget for this gun was $0 and it took about 15 min to put together.
I'm just uploading this for kicks, it's a pretty low quality gun.

- The blowgun came with this nozzle, I drilled it to make the hole much larger for better air flow.
I drilled a hole in the pill bottle, and used the 1/8" nozzle attachment to bolt the bottle to the blowgun. Sorry for the bad image focus.

That might not be a good idea, you can't tell what the inside of the tank looks like, it could be rustyrednecktatertosser wrote:Gee thanks now i have to make one.

Well you can buy a brand new compressor for about $60 at some stores. It would be small (5 gallon), but would be better than a bike tire pump.rednecktatertosser wrote:Gee thanks now i have to make one.

The tiny chamber gives you pretty good power, I just need to find a more narrow barrel for mine so the thing has a little accuracy.
I noticed bb/mg for sale on one of the commerical sites. It was like we make but they had the blower on the same end as yours. I have mine in the end just under the barrel. I was thinking of changing mine and put it oppisite the barrel. I think it would pick up the bbs and start them forward toward the barrel quicker. Don't mean to babble on but thats what you get with someone trying to explain something. Let me know if this made sense.Chuck
