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

Supposedly you can get clamps that don't cut into the hose/bladder? It's obviously not necessary for garden hose (which doesn't expand beyond the clamp's diameter) but it's probably useful here.

I believe Scavenger used a standard clamp in his spherical CPS water gun. Strange that it isn't working for you. :/

Yeah, I used electrical tape to protect my balloons. It works well, and no tears so far. You just have to remember that when you clamp them, you don't need to do it as tightly as you can.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
Quack damn you.

Acctually, even when tight, it leaks (with a roll of paper around) im still not sure exactly where to cut the balloons...if i had a cps bladder to use it would be soo much more helpful
