FIRST GET THE BOTTLE AND THE BIKE VALVE. DRILL A HOLE IN THEN BOTTLE BIG ENOUGH FOR THE BIKE VALVE TO FIT THROUGH THEN DROP THE BIKE VALVE IN THE BOTTLE THEN POKE IT THROUGH THE HOLE GLUE THE BIKE VALVE SO AIR CANT GET THROUGH OR YOU CAN USE PVC PIPE INSTEAD OF A BOTTLE.

Putting the Gage On

DRILL A HOLE I THE SIDE OF THE BOTTLE AND THEN PUT A BIT OF GLUE AROUND THE EDGE THEN SCREW THE GAGE ON (THE GLUE IS TO GIVE THE GAGE MORE SUPPORT AND MAKE SURE THE AIR DOESN’T COME OUT)

Connecting the Barrel to the Gun

CONNECT THE COPPER PIPE TO THE HOSE GUN OR AIR LINE CONNECTOR I USED A PIECE OF RUBBER PIPE TO CONNECT THE AIR LINE CONNECTOR TO THE COPPER PIPE BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T FIT STRAIT ON.

How to Use It

PUMP THE BOTTLE UP AS MUCH AS YOU WANT USING THE BIKE VALVE AND A PUMP THEN PUT SOMETHING IN THE BARREL THEN PRESS THE TRIGGER
