a cloud is a air input (commonly on the bottem) and an air out put or barrel. you fill the chamber with BBs and hook an air commpresser that blows air in causing the bbs to swirl around in the chamber causing a "cloud" of BBs and the only for the air to ecapr is out the barrel sucking the bbs out with it. it is a very easy way to make a airsoft machine gun.
