... or "ghetto portable BBMG" for you English speaking types
Pictures say it all really, 6mm brass tube barrel, transparent cloud chamber from a section of measuring cylinder, garden spraygun and 2 litre coke bottle chamber - and of course, copious amounts of epoxy I gave it a go at 20 psi and it works beautifully, I'm going to let the epoxy cure then crank it up to see what sort of damage I can do Nothing innovative I'm afraid, but I needed a straightforward project that I knew would work to relieve some frustration.

Good god that is one ugly mf!
But a lot of fun!
Now tell me..was it too hard to place the bottle underneath the barrel, or more like a buttstock?

About how many shots did you get out with the bottle at 20 psi?

A thought occurs.
Unless there's a detachable bit to fill that cloud chamber... are you having to refill it from the barrel each time?

Knowing jack he probably epoxied every possible piece.
BTW; is that Spanish?

It was the way the bottle clipped into the quick-connect really.

I'm waiting for higher pressure, willing to take it to 80 psi at least
About how many shots did you get out with the bottle at 20 psi?
put around 30 BBs and it empied them at 20 psi
are you having to refill it from the barrel each time?
Yep. KISS, y'know
Knowing jack he probably epoxied every possible piece.

Indeed (almost epoxied the spray gun handle shut actually ) but you'll be glad to know that the bottle is detachable thanks to a quick-connect.
And well, it's my interpretation of Spanish, which I thought appropriate as I'm in Spain at the moment.

Possibility of a real chamber when you get back to the states?

I deductively guessed where he lives through hints he has thrown out over time but have been sworn to silence. You guys need to get more creative in your detective work....
