ok i know exactly how to make a cloud but i was wondering the best things to use...here is the varibales..

1. length of chamber ( best length for combination of both)
A. best for power
B. best for rate of fire

2. paint

3. barrel
A. i might have a barrel but i cant get the grease out of it (hint) so i may have to use brakeline (best size for airsoft bbs?)

the most i need to know is wat size the chamber should be...with the combination of both the variables

Make vortex. More powerful and eats less air.

best size for airsoft bbs would have to be 5/16 (7.9mm), or at least that I know of.
Brakeline that is.

NO NO NO! if you can get 9/32 OD brass pipe, use it. 7.9mm is terrible

You can use the long metal tube from weed sprayer guns....theyre about 60cm(24") long, are cheap and easy to find, fit 6mm BB's perfectly and even have threads on one end of them.
