After making my serviceable Marker Gun http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/video-s ... esult.htmlI was already thinking of improvements I could make couldn't think of anything.
I am wondering if anybody has Ideas for improvements I could make on my next Marker Gun. Paint, Names? ANYTHING I just need Ideas.

make it still really sleek but still serviceable.........

If i were you i would try making the whole thing held together by bolted in O-ring Sealed plugs........

i dunno.......

making it really long would also be cool, so its more like a rifle.....

either that or Make a Pengun. its obvious you have the abilities.

Well thanks VH-man hat means alot really it does. I do have the abilities but I don't have the pipe for the barrel. And basicly I think that there is always going to be more power to be found in marker guns larger barrels, more air tank volume you know.

Do you think this would work?, I just drew it up. forgot to note that washer that the oring is siting on sorry for the double post.

you should name it the grinch if you paint it green :D also you could add a presta valve instead of a schrader valve.

Can't find presta's gotta stick to shraders greens not my favorite collour either.

I personally dont think a presta would offer any improvment.

yeah i was thinking that also. maybe wrap it in an electrical tape or make it thinner i really dont know there is not much you can do with small coaxials. i guess you could add a pistil grip and some kind of trigger if you want it to look more stlylish but less portable

That's what I might do then.

Probably not with my pump I clamp a hose right onto the shraders and I don't think that setup would work with prestas

Well I can't use that oring plug thing I would need a 1/4'' bolt with the treaded part 5mm in lenth pretty hard to find that I bet. Any other Ideas?
