When I was thinking about the cloud BBMGs... I thought how about one that's powered by your own lungs / breath

My Ghetto Lung-Powered Cloud BBMG

- Specs -

Size - 15cm Long
Cloud Chamber - Film Canister
Cap - Coke Cap
Air source - Your high pressure lungs
Rate of Fire - 20beads/second
Muzzle Velocity - 50fps :(
Muzzle Energy - with .10g beads.... 0.02joules
Effective Range - 10metres or 30ft
Max Range - 20 metres or 60ft
Ammunition - 6mm arts and craft beads (Damn you Australia!) I have nothing against you.

This is only a quick cloud chamber I just thrown together, and if anyone has already posted this (I've check couldn't find anything), please tell me. And i'll re-edit this and say it was this dudes idea...

I was going to go use this in classroom battles during lunch but now i need to make more. Gonna wear sunnies, these things won't break em, so eye protection is down pat :P

Improvements

- At the moment I am blowing it on the side... I will eventually place a tube for where the mouth goes on it, so you can aim straight
- Using PVC pipe next time to use in classroom battles
- Put some extras like handles in the front and back

And here are some pics

It's Nerf or Nothing.

Don't start crying when I play this as my hobby, Paintball, Airsoft and Nerf are equally good hobbies, except you can play Nerf in public. Good day! Hmph!

and can't make sure that was sarcasm, but it'll take it as a compliment :)

Simple is always good, and you've come up with something that's much more fun than a simple pea-shooter that can easily be carried and used, and made in enough quantities for fun wargames. Just mind you don't trip and fall while it's in your mouth ;p

Nah i didn't know it was on youtube, i thought of it on my own instinct. thought i'm going to improve it, it might be secondary when my friends play bb skirmish with me, gonna try to stick it into a toy pistol and try to make a magazine + plunger for more realism, cept for the part where you blow on it lol,

i got too much work from school atm, gonna start to make proper guns on the holidays

I don't think that's ghetto at all -- looks pretty nice actually, though I'm just not into lung-power.

I'm not a moderator, but I think you should read the rules about posting. Just some friendly advice.

I remember doing something similar once, I had a mouthful of nerds candies and I blew them into a straw, using my mouth as the cloud chamber
