I was just wondering if there is anyway to mod a blow gun to make it flow more air? I did a search but all i could find was moded sprinkler valves. Any help would be appreciated :)

I would think that you can drill the hole inside a little bigger providing you don't go bigger than the trigger system inside, and that you don't drill into the trigger system. That would be a bad thing LOL just make sure that you clean out all shavings from dilling so it dont mess up the rubber seal inside hope that helped a little. I haven't done the Pnuematic thing yet but will do after the contest. All I know about blow guns is by what I read. I like copper it is shinny LOL that's what I'm using next, just got to practice soldering copper.
