Build a homemade water gun or water balloon launcher and tell us about it.

I recently botched my attempt on k-modding my CPS 2100 (I lost the trigger spring&#33 ;) . It's still dissasembled in the garage. I have frozen check valve, intact tubing, fully intact CPS chamber, reservoir, and pump. Would it be possible to take some of these parts and use them in an inexpensive homemade?

I would write down the size of the original spring and check a hardware store to see if they have a spring that size. Or at least bring in the casing and try to determine the spring size by trial and error in the store. If that doesn't work, then you could use the pump for a homemade, or use the pc in one. If all options are exhausted, just buy a new 2100. If it ever breaks, you have replacement parts.

Treekie - just get a new spring, that is a simple fix.

Monsoon - Get some copper piping, you can make a new trigger. That's what my dad and I are doing. (learning how to weld).
