festival guns

Post by used man » Mon Jun 16, 2008 10:48 pm

on the tiny, wimpy island i live on there is a GIANT festival every year. me and my friend have decided to open up a homemade water gun booth. i am looking for cheap impressive and durable for 7 year olds.i plan to make 2 liter homemades as the main thing. i have plenty of experience with building guns having made a cph and a aph i was also thinking of mr.pukeonyourheads piston guns because they look so durable. are there any other suggestion for guns to sell.

APH water guns are very durable and require little maintenance and can be made for cheap so I'd suggest them. CPH style water guns require maintenance later so I can't recommend them much.

Let us know how this works out and suggest some guides to people if they're interested in building but not buying. ;)

Remember to do some demonstrations too. That should get some people interested. Best of luck.

Yep, if you have any powerful homemades ready to go, be sure to take those along! One-shots are one thing, water cannons/APHs/CPHs/and their ilk are another. :D

It sounds like you have a good business plan. Good luck!

On a side note, I'm getting interested in small water guns too...cheap and easy to make, and light enough to run with.
