I'll be honest, I'm a little bored. Track just ended, school sucks, etc. I like to fill my time with inexpensive projects that I build then touch once a year. I had kinda run out of ideas though (and money, but that's a different issue). So I got the idea that I wanted to move beyond wood-working and into either electronics or projectiles (like I said, I like to build something then never touch it. I have a ballista sitting in my garage). I was browsing for something to make on the internet when I found this: Sniper Paintball Gun
So I got kinda excited and I have been browsing your forums for hours now. I'm still excited. Then I started seeing price tags associated with CO2. I've played some paintball, but it was always on a friends tab so I never really new the cost. My solution (since actually playing is not really a goal of mine) is to use good old muscle power to pump a tank myself. I have failed to find any help on this subject though.
I'm pretty handy, but I don't have too many tools (a drill and a saw, I am gonna get a hacksaw). If anyone could point me in the right direction to get started making my own Sniper, I'd be very grateful. I'd like to start simple, but powerful. Ideally, something I could mod in the future (rifling, CO2, Scope, etc) would be perfect. And I need someone to point me to a tutorial on how to make a hand-pumped Cannon.
Thanks.
