We all remember how in childhood we often in the hot season, namely in the summer we played water games with water guns, or plastic bottles with holes in the lid. But, you see, with a bottle it’s not very comfortable, but with a water gun it’s the most. I want to bring to your attention the option of making a water gun at home do it yourself, which will increase the joy of defeating an opponent in the game by a hundred times. Yes, and such a gun looks much more presentable of the same plastic bottle.
And here is how the author makes a water gun in the video:

Instruments:
- polypropylene tube 14 cm long .;
- polypropylene tube 2 pcs. 76 centimeters long, but the thick tube in diameter should be 32 ml., and the diameter of the narrow tube should be 20 ml .;
- one clutch;
- one wine cork plastic;
- ordinary ballpoint pen;
- one stub.
All instruments except wine cork and pen can be purchased at any hardware store.
So that you do not get confused in the diameters of the tubes, I will say in other words, a narrow tube should easily enter a thick tube, and its movement inside a thick tube should not be restricted by anything.
Initially, we need to connect a short 14 centimeter tube and a long thin one. We can do this with a sleeve. For this, it is necessary to heat the ends of both tubes using fire or a building hair dryer, and insert each heated edge into a separate hole in the sleeve.
Work carefully because the plastic will be very hot, and if used improperly, it can cause severe burns. We heat and insert.
We need to repeat the same procedure with a thick pipe, only one end of the pipe we need to install a plug. We perform the same manipulations as with the previous two tubes.
Now we need to glue the pancake from the wine cork to the free edge of a thin long tube. We cut it off with the help of a clerical knife, and glue it using hot-melt glue, strictly in the center.And with the help of sandpaper, the edges of the cork protruding beyond the base of the pipe are smoothed. And insert the end with the cork into a thick pipe with a plug.
But before that, a hole must be drilled in the plug, the diameter corresponding to the diameter of the base of the ballpoint pen. This can easily be done with a drill of this size. When the hole is made, glue the frame of the handle with silicone glue. The tube will increase the range of a shot with a water pistol.
To draw water into a water gun, you just need to lower the nose from the handle into the water and pull the lever out of the short pipe.
