Nibor and I are going to try to make a new homemade, 2 of them. The design places a cylinder-style CPS pc at the top of the gun, has a one gallon milk bottle for a reservoir, has powerful nozzles, and features a pvctracked pump! Most of the gun will be pvc and is fired with a ball valve. It will also have a grip instead of a handle; it there's room there will be a strap, too.

The milk jug. Bad idea.
They are flimsy and break easy. You might want to incase it in something. Duct tape if nothing else. heheh, its good for anything. Duct tape, use number 34871293481343443307428973- Homeade Water Gun Reservoir Reinforcement.

Dux, I thought we weren't going to talk about this until after we started it. But anyway, The milk jug probably is to flimsy so I was thinking one of those orange juice bottles that are like super thick (the plastic ones, not the papery ones). Me and Dux are looking into making our own cps PC. We're still not sure about it all but we can definatly do it.

I think you should hold it in PVC or ABS piping, not milk jugs and stuff like that.
What is the PC going to be constructed from? I mean the actual CPS one. And what's the internal diameter going to be? I think you should make it at least 3/4", and try to use large LRT if you decide to use some. My CPS homemade was anti-climatic on the riotblast.
Check that out for ideas on the tracked pump, I've actually tried some of this stuff before but later decided to go for simplicity in my homemades.

Doom doesn't make his. He orders Latex Rubber Tubing from mcmaster.com then applies a few layers of innertube to make it a little stronger/thicker. If you want a balloon CPS gun. I guess make your own shell, and do something along the lines of an XPS.

That's not completely it. I also buy a second (and want to buy a third) tube to put over the smaller internal one. This makes the thickness comparable to that of a K-modded gun. After a few more layers of bike tubes, you can really have something powerful.Originally posted by BlueSmudge@Sep 3 2004, 02:15 PM
