1. Go menards or similar store and buy a 10ft piece of LATEX tubing.
2. MAKE SURE IT IS LATEX!!! THE SYNTHETIC STUFF WILL NOT HOLD AS MUCH PAINT AND CAN HAVE MAJOR FAILURES. TRUST ME I KNOW!!!
3. Buy some pull pins.
4. go home and cut the 10ft piece into 23 5" pieces. cut the last five inches into little rings, but not to little, a little over an 1/8 of an inch.
5. tie a knot at the eind of the tubing and scrunch it down to the end.
6. now comes the fun part....

4 oz.= 118 cc's (if you're using a syringe graduated in cc's) Ask your doctor, vet, or pharmacist for a "Large bore irrigation syringe" Failing that, try looking for a "mainade injector" (essentially the same thing) 8-)

any hard ware store, I got mine at Home Depot, and I know Lowes carries it. Its found in the plumbing section, or close by. If all else fails, you can ask an employee where to find latex tubing.

Where can you buy syringe? i am in need of syringe in multiple projects, (not medical, of course!) and would like to know where to buy them.

I dont know if you got an answer to this but you can get them at any pharmacy...I think you usual just have to ask for them.

Nise instruction, but could you please retake the photos? It feels like I'm looking at vanGough's interpretation of paintball grenade construction.
