Step 1: The Base

all you have to do is look at the pictures and do what u see on them. This base was built in 10 min so its not that great it might help to add more support and weight.

If the power was adjustable, it would of been better

well i agree with u there but like i said this is mainly a skeleton for u to do whatever you want with if you knew how you could make a wheel to pull the arm back and that could make it adjustable

But then he wouldn't be able to drink it...

stale56 in reply to knexguyFeb 16, 2009. 8:23 AM

but then it would explode, go everywhere, so everbody can lick the walls and ground to get their mountain dew

knexguy in reply to stale56Feb 16, 2009. 9:39 AM

Yes, but then he wouldn't get as much. And everybody knows Mountain Dew is not for sharing.

stale56 in reply to knexguyFeb 16, 2009. 10:11 AM

sharing is caring=) then i can get some mountain dew...

knexguy in reply to stale56Feb 16, 2009. 1:21 PM

Hmm, but surely it would be easier to share if you passed the bottle around rather than having people lick it off the floor?

abalone4 (author) in reply to knexguyFeb 16, 2009. 1:26 PM

but wheres the fun in that i mean if i want to do that i culd build a mountain dew squirt gun ;) ahhhhh but it was just a random picture i had and the bottle does not fit in the basket :(
