Ok, I took a look at some different cloud setups, and I came up with a design for it but it will be easy to load. Check it out and let me know if you think it would work or if I need to change some stuff. Keep in mind the whole chamber will be 100% metal and air tight.

Looks good but you shouldnt need the spring.

i'm just thinking that a spring will jam up the feed of bb's. it would push on it and not allow the bb's to move about how they should in a cloud. springs are used in vortex's mainly...

(correct me if i'm wrong)

Well it's not really a cloud since it has an o-ring detent... so I'd say it's good to go. You might have feeding problems with the spring there, and it might jam, but it strikes me as unlikely if you use a relatively weak spring.
