homemade hopper

[Letchworth40]

I made my own hopper and agitator!!
I made it really simple. I used pvc pipe, wood, drill, paint, and a crapload of other thingys.

The only drawback is that its really huge and the agitator sometimes falls out into the elbow. With a few minor changes it MIGHT take the place of my 12vt. :)

post a picture of it

[Pookister569]

lol, it sounds like the hopper looks ugly as hell. post a pic

[Letchworth40]

I'll post pics when i borrow "ded"s camera. But for now i'll just prob post the plans.

This frigging thing holds 600rounds!!!

[FalconMan]

I'm guessing its ugly then........ good for a back player though in speedball

[AllOleander]

It holds 600 paintballs?? Why dont you just make a big sign that says SMACK ME IN THE HOPPER and put it on your jersey. :rolleyes:

Thats ridiculous man.. post a pic, i gotta see this!

[Letchworth40]

I use it mainly to make people think i'm friggin stupid. And lets just say my cocker can "almost" fit in this hopper.

whatever happened to the 300rd revy? i saw one once at my local field, and the guy with it told me that they stopped producing it, but i cant think for the life of me why. anyone know?

[death]

just poke a hole in a shoe box, load it with paintballs, and tape it to your gun :) and then steal an agitator while somebody isnt' looking and tape it in :D

[death]

i think since people didnt' want to empty three tubes into one loader. and it would be sorta big...

[july_favre]

You must have a strong agitator to maove all that weight around.

[jaguar45]

actually, the 300rd revvy was only about 1/2" taller, no wider, and 4-5" longer than a normal revvy. musta been heavy tho, but worth it i think.
whats wrong with emptying 3 tubes in rather than 2? that means you need to reload less often. and with 140/150 round pods, it means only 2 tubes. it doesnt suit my playing style (im a crawler), but its intriguing.

[FalconMan]

You would only need one if you were trigger happy really

[mInImAg169]

I know a guy at my field who needs that. He said that the least amount of paint he's EVER used in a game was 600 balls........GEEZE:eek:

[Freak 5150]

They stoped making them cause not enough people were buying them. Plus it was an old bord in there, I think they called it a ripper or shreader, and it wasn't very good. So when they came out with the newer boards, which are old now, they stoped making them.

Why would u want a friggin huge 600 round hopper when a 200 round one with some pods can hold just as much, it prolly weighs a ton and unbalances your aim.:eyes: :freak: :confuse:

[death]

yeah i think it was shredder or somethun...

[Saiyan_warrior]

I honestly dont believe at all one bit. Unless you have a picture to show proof.

[TheSickness]

i know i want to see this thing. hurry up and get a picture

[JIVEN]

this is my homemade agitator thingy ma bob. i used gears to make it go slower but with alot more power
right now it just is on or off. but i plan on putting a microswitch type thing on there(sorta like on the richochet) eventually

[JIVEN]

i will have some sort of housing for it
for now i have the battery pack (2 AAs) in the grip frame but ill probly put it on the hopper somewhere

[Pookister569]

thats a pretty neat homemade hopper. how well does it work?:blah:

[JIVEN]

thanks!! it works pretty good....not quit as good as my revvy, but ill work on it some more;)

[Dern]

Now i see what u mean, i misunderstood what u described it as. Now that i see it, it loooks like a really good idea.

[HondaRacer2120]

i thought of doing that, but i was gonna put the motor vertical so the shaft is strait up in the hopper :)

[spaceboy72201]

Come on Dedagain get a pic of it!:pissed:

[Arbiestsheft]

Come on, i wanna see that bad boy!

[paintballer476]

prolly looks rl fruity

[Squidboy]

Post a pic and/or plans, I need a hopper like that, thing must be friggin huge, paint dumper's dream.

[Letchworth40]

well "DED" hasn't let me borrow his camera yet so i cant get pics unitll he does. but its very easy to make. i had some parts left over from building my Potato Gun so i built this. Its a 2 1/2 inch pipe thats 2 ft long with end caps on both sides. one side has the screw in deely where you pour your paint. Then i drilled this hole that fits perfect on my elbow and just jammed it on. It looks stupid as hell but it works. painted mine black with a big profane word in red on the side :eyes: :eyes: :laugh:

[punkerx1]

come on come on post a pic come on come on!:( :( i dont believe u ne way. also i think u could make a big ole hopper with a milk jug, might work. i dont know just an idea.

[TheZephyr]

When the first verticle hopper showed up on the cover of APG, everyone went crazy cutting gas cans in half and using them for hoppers.

[ferret0123]

Hey Jiven can you post some instuctions and materials for that hopper for us?
