whats easier to make for a BBMG, a cloud chamber or vortex chamber? i understand the concept on a vortex chamber but it seems like if you dont make it exactly perfect the bbs will jam. i cant seem to find anything on how a cloud chamber works so how does a cloud chamber differ from a vortex?

A cloud chamber is simply a resavoir full of bb's with a barrel at the top and you push air through it forceing the bb's out the barrel. I think it's probly the easiest thing to make.

You have no idea about my first real spud gun.The BFG, symbol of my complexes.A big tenis ball launcher with a massive chamber for it's barrel and 650000mf capacitor ignition.The most funny thing is that when I build it I didn't know that there are people out there that lauch potatos on the same principle.
