Introduction: Easy 10 Minute Airgun
easy and works well for how long it takes
(check new step (# 6) )
Step 1: Materials
you will need:
2 liter bottle
bike pump (with needle)
cork
two 7/8" PVC valves
one 7/8" PVC "T"
one piece of 7/8" PVC 1/2" long
two pieces of 1/2" PVC 1 1/2" long
two pieces of 1/2" PVC 2 1/2" long
one piece of 1/2" PVC at least 2 feet
Step 2: Construction
using pvc cement, put the pieces together as shown in step 1 picture.
IMPORTANT:
make sure to glue all pieces EXEPT the barrel! do NOT glue the barrel to the valve as you will be taking it off to reload
Step 3: Pump
drill a 5 mm hole down 3/4 into the cork
after that, stick the pump needle into the other end all the way
Step 4: Load Projectile
take the barrel out of the valve and put your bullet in the end
(i used a marble wrapped in masking tape)
make sure its a tight fit or it might not work very well
Step 5: Launch
to launch, make sure that the valve on the handle is open and the valve leading to the barrel is closed.
then stick the cork into the bottom of the handle and pump it up.
(i usually pump 5-7 times)
when you're done pumping close the valve in the handle and unplug the cork.
after that just open the barrel valve and your projectile goes flying
Step 6: Expand on the Design
once you get the basic design down, expand on the idea!
this is what i did with mine
now its alot easier to pump

how much did it cost to make
where can you at the valve
uhh where would i find a cork??? that size even?
could you use a half liter bottle
Hmm im gonna make a variation on this Out of scrap pieces i have
thats very cool good idea with the cork
u gotta make a true trigger system dude!!!!
a trigger nozle for a hose works as a great trigger I just made my first air rifle and thats what I used
me 2, it works great!
This Better Work
cool :)
hey whats the power of this thing in FPS ??????
I think these measurments are wrong. its impossible to fit the 1/2 inch into the 7/8* without an expander. Help?
*i used a 3/4 because 7/8 doesn't exist
how do you put the bottle on? do you put pvc cement on? i even put the bottle all the way on and it leaks air.
the video on the intro doesn,t work. can you make it availiable to watch it ?
should be easy to use because you don't have to plug it in and out repeatedly.
how big is the cork?
i was told that there os no such thing as a 7/8" pvc. where did you get it?
Where is the cork again, and how do i unplug the cork?
the valves are about 2 bucks each at ace hardware, the T was $1, and all the reg. PVC is 55 cents a foot
