DIY: automatic rechargeable snow gun

Mark Robert , an engineer working on spacecraft, in his spare time does not stop inventing new devices. Together with his brother, he made a machine for throwing snowballs on the basis of a pneumatic machine for blowing leaves - just so he could withstand his numerous nephews in a snow battle. A snow gun regulates the speed of shells and their number per unit of time (up to three shots per second), and the stores for snowballs are made rechargeable.

The brothers laid out detailed instructions for making "cold" weapons. In addition to the pneumatic machine, you will need several pipe lengths, which can be easily purchased at any plumbing store, clamps, and, of course, sanitary tape. Some of them form the trunk, and several are transformed into stores, pre-charged snowballs.

The air supplied under pressure blows snowballs out of the pipe at a decent speed, and they are fed manually from the store by means of a special piston. If you arm yourself with some simple device for making snowballs, then with such a unit you can hold out for a long time against a whole crowd of kids.



Surely any schoolchild living in a climate prone to heavy snowfall would have sold his soul for such a device.
