I had some scrap laying around and decided to make a mine it didn't take much thought to come up with a disighn

parts
>chamber 2" T
>barrel 1" X & 1" 45 elbow x3
trigger is a micro switch set up so when its triped its off.
to fire the pin must be pulled slightly the pin its self will be attached to a string.

P.S. its getting a paint job so don't hype about that

Nice, bean kickin’ around the idea of makin’ an off-route mine my self.

Kind of a dumb question, what kind of wood is the trigger housing made of?

do you fill the 1" pipe with paint?Or Paintballs?Is there a sabot behind them if they are paintballs?Perhaps you should cover the barrel with masking tape or something when you use it so you don't get gunk in your barrels.

Nice. It looks a little big but it looks effective as well. You should provide us with more details (if you want) such as the loading method, the effective range, etc.
