My first clouds.

So i've been getting my feet wet in the area of bbmg's (gotta start somewhere right?). I had some free time the other day, and i decided to make a 6mm ghetto cloud, out of a soda bottle and a pen tube.
Even though it's a piece of crap, and wasn't very useful, the rate of fire impressed me quite a bit, even for a cloud made of a soda bottle.
So i decided to make a slightly better model using pvc and pen tube.
all it is, is just a 1-1/2'' plug, 1-1/2'' coupler, 1-1/2'' to 1-1/4'' reducer bushing, and 1-1/4'' threaded plug.
The pen tube is held in place by friction and the 1-1/4'' threaded plug has a small spring and plunger on it.
Because this thing is so small, it has a small bb capacity, but boy does it shoot fast. It's quite a bit of fun to shoot, so i think i will be making larger scaled up versions sometime soon.
