A homemade airbrush from a syringe is an excellent household helper. This invention makes painting an easy process. You can make a homemade airbrush at home, because not everyone has the opportunity to purchase it in a store, especially since the cost of an airbrush is quite high. will be no worse than the purchased one. In order to make it, you do not need any special skills or abilities, and the parts that make up the airbrush can be found in any home. There are two ways to make a spray gun from a syringe: without a spray gun (this method is very simple) and with a spray gun (more complicated).

What is an airbrush?

An airbrush is the same spray gun (pneumatic tool) that is designed to spray a colorant. It is used in many spheres of life, but because of its high cost, craftsmen have already learned how to make an airbrush with their own hands.

Method one (airbrush without a spray gun)

First of all, you need to collect all the necessary tools. To make this type of airbrush you will need:

• a disposable syringe and a needle from it (its volume depends only on the desire of the master);
• clip;
• a thread;
• retainer - scotch tape or electrical tape;
• small container for paint.

The needle must be removed and heated over a fire so that it can be separated from the plastic base. You need to remove the plunger from the syringe, first make the paper clip even, and then bend it at an angle of 90 °. Thread one side of the paperclip and the needle tightly. Then, using tape or electrical tape, fix the other side of the paper clip and the case. Moreover, it is necessary to fix the structure near the hole on which the needle was put on. Set the tip of the needle so that it is in the center of the syringe nozzle.

After that, the paint should be diluted so that it is liquid in a small container. Take the airbrush in your hand, lower the needle into a container with dye and blow hard into a wide nozzle.

Such airbrushes are called in the common people "rotoduvami". In order to make such a device, it will take 9-11 minutes and a minimum of devices.

Method two (airbrush without paint spray)

This method is identical to the method described above, it differs in only a few details.

For manufacturing you will need:

Spray gun position: a - walls, b - ceiling.

• a rod from a gel pen;
• disposable syringe + needle;
• a piece of a ballpoint pen rod;
• glass or plastic bottle, container for coloring emulsion;
• hot melt glue.

The whole process of collecting an airbrush takes place in several stages:

• cut off the writing part of the pen with a cone;
• cut off the sharp part of the medical needle;
• Immerse the needle in hot melt glue and insert it into the cut rod so that its tip is visible from the metal part of the rod;
• the upper part of the syringe is attached to the bottle (a rod with a needle must be inserted into the body);
• make 3-4 holes in the lid for air access;
• the distance between the tip of the needle and the pen can be determined experimentally.

One of the advantages of this airbrush is the easy replacement of the reservoir.

Airbrush with paint sprayer

In order to make a more convenient homemade airbrush, you will need the following details:

• pens (3 ballpoint automatic, 2 gel);
• pencil;
• metal empty bottle (you can take a bottle of cosmetics);
• syringes (2-3);
• solid wire;
• bolts 2 pcs. 3 mm each;
• nipple;
• small needle - 2 pcs.;
• glue.

First of all, you need to assemble the cartridge and the needle retainer. You need to make it from a syringe, a gel pen rod, a fountain pen spring and a bolt. Remove the piston from the body, lower the spring inward (it should be next to the thin nozzle), make a hole in the rod and insert the bolt, and they should be perpendicular to each other. This design is then inserted into the housing.

In the body of a ballpoint pen, you need to make holes on both sides with a hot knife: one is smaller and more round (about 0.5 cm), the second is larger and longer (about 2 cm). Next, a piece of wire must be bent into the trigger stop. Heat a needle suitable for the diameter of the wire and make two holes in the body for the bent wire, insert it into the body.

The next step is to prepare 4 pieces of wire 6 cm each and bend them at right angles. These segments should be used to secure the air body, or rather its valve (made from a piece of ballpoint pen body).

Then you need to insert the body that holds the needle directly into the spray gun. It should fit effortlessly. The length of the gel pen rod is selected so that the rod rests against the bent wire and the spring is compressed. Epoxy resin, hot melt glue or regular super glue can be used to connect all parts.

Next, you need to deal with the air valve of the airbrush, it will consist of a syringe without a piston, a needle, a spring, a piece of tube from a cylinder (air freshener), a nipple. All parts must be connected, pre-treated with glue.

For the trigger, you need an antenna, a piston head. It is necessary to connect two sections of the antenna with the cap, and insert a match inside with glue already applied to it. All parts also need to be coated with glue so that the structure is strong.

In order to make a paint sprayer for an airbrush, you need one syringe, an iron part of a medical needle, a part of a rod with an iron tip, and an air supply hose.

The tank for the coloring emulsion will be a deodorant can, or rather its upper part, which must be cut off with a knife.

When all the parts are connected to each other, the spray gun can be considered ready. It is not difficult to make it and it will not take long, the main thing is to have a desire. But if you don't want to mess around with a complex airbrush designer, you can completely use the first and second methods. So much time is not spent on them, and parts for their manufacture can be found in any apartment or house.

There is another way to make an airbrush with a spray gun from a can of deodorant. Moreover, an empty can will act as a spray bottle to gently disperse paint or any fine chemical. For manufacturing you need:

• empty spray can;
• a syringe with a large capacity;
• a vinyl tube with a diameter that will fit the small nozzle;
• a compressor for creating pressure in the cylinder;
• gloves.

Remove the plastic valve from the deodorant can. Put the vinyl tube on the syringe, as close as possible to the base, and cut it so that it can be further put on the syringe nozzle, but so that there is room for pressing the cartridge valve (that is, the length of the vinyl tube should be approximately 0 , 5 cm). Draw up some liquid paint and connect a piece of vinyl tubing to a spray can. In this method, the syringe acts as an element for filling the spray can with paint. In order for the paint to get inside the can from under the deodorant, you must press the nozzle of the can and then the plunger of the syringe. It is not difficult to calculate the volume of the refilled paint; it is enough to look at the volume of the spray can and the capacity of the syringe. For example, the volume of the can is 150 ml, the syringe is 10 cubes, which means that you need to pour 5 volumes of paint into the can. It is very important between refueling not to forget to first squeeze the cylinder valve, that is, close it, and only then remove the syringe.

An adapter must be made from the plastic sheath of the medical needle, which will connect the balloon and the compressor. It is necessary to make a small hole in the sealed part of the cover, and insert the open part into the compressor tube. Then turn on the compressor, put the adapter on the can, press on its nozzle and fill with air (for a 150 ml bottle - about 2 kg of air). Before painting, put on a plastic spray bottle and shake it.

In this material, you will be presented with a method of making simple pneumatics from syringes.

So, we need:
- glue gun;
- juice straw;
- stationery knife;
- 2 large syringes.

We take the first syringe and cut off the nose at the very base.

Next, you need to make a hole between marks 5 and 10.

Now the spout, which we cut off at the very beginning, needs to be glued to the hole. This must be done very carefully so as not to accidentally seal the hole.

Next, we take the second syringe. It needs to be glued in the place where the spout of the first syringe was. According to the author, a normal joint will allow air to pass through, so it is imperative to use glue for better sealing.

The pneumatics are ready. It can be used in two ways: either glue the tube and shoot the balls, or do without the tube and shoot cartridges made from needles.

With the first option, everything is clear, so let's move on to making cartridges from needles. This is done very simply. We take a needle and put it on any syringe.

We put the nozzle of the needle into the turned on and hot glue gun and pull the piston, thereby sucking in some glue.

After a while, the glue will harden and cover the hole in the needle, preventing air from escaping from it.

For quite some time now, there have been lures such as poppers in the arsenals of anglers. This tackle shows excellent results when fishing for pike, therefore it is widely used among fishermen in our country.

In specialized stores you can buy a variety of poppers, for any color and "taste". However, for anglers who like to put their hands to it, I want to offer an example of a popper from a pharmacy disposable syringe.

At minimal cost, you can get a homemade, pretty decent catchy popper.

To make a popper from a syringe, you will need the following materials:

• syringe five cubes;
• wine bottle cork;
• two wires;
• two tees with winding rings;
• steel balls that can be removed from the bearing.

The process of making a homemade syringe popper with your own hands:

We proceed to the task at hand - to make a popper. We disassemble the pharmacy syringe and cut off unnecessary parts (we cut the nose, the stem into parts and use only the middle). The actions can be seen in the photos.

Cylinders are cut from the wine cork, which fit the syringe in size and will be tightly inserted inside. To do this, using a knife, excess pieces are cut in a circle until the required size is obtained. In order not to be mistaken, you can draw a cutoff point with a ballpoint pen.

Then we push the small cylinder from the cork into the syringe to the very end, carefully pierce a hole in it for the wire. We send next the middle part from the cut stock. In the remaining cylinder, we also make holes for the wires, as shown in the photo.

We put steel balls inside the syringe and push the cork. We twist the free ends of the two wires and make a ring for attaching the fishing line. We also bend the remaining free ends of the wires and create rings for attaching the hooks.

It remains to attach the tees with winding rings and a homemade popper - the rattle from the syringe is ready. You can go to the river and try to catch a predatory pike, which loves to attack such baits.

Homemade syringe popper is ready

It only remains to add that when making a homemade popper from a syringe with your own hands, you can add something of your own and modify the homemade product, which will surely lead to an improvement in its qualities and catchability. You can add red hairs to the tees, you can also put chopped multi-colored foil inside, or you can come up with your own original equipment for this bait, or an original color.

Fill the eclairs with cream. If there is no such product, then you can create it yourself. How to make a confectionery syringe with your own hands? This work can be done with various materials at hand.

Terms of use

There are various attachments in the set with the cooking syringe:

• Smooth cut.
• Oblique cut.
• With teeth.
• With asterisks.

The attachments allow you to create wonderful culinary masterpieces. Syringes are needed to decorate cakes with various patterns - flowers, leaves, inscriptions, a mesh, a border. To create a rose, you need to take a piece of biscuit, align the edges, put it on a fork and coat it with cream. Then you can do the petals. You need to take the fork in your left hand, gradually turn it over, and with your right hand - create petals. In the center you need to make small petals, and at the edges - more and higher. With another fork, the rose is removed and placed in the right place on the cake.

The cone-shaped nozzle is used to create leaves. The device with a flattened end allows you to get bows, ruffles, lambrequins. There are nozzles for creating smooth and grooved stripes. They allow you to create a wicker basket. A narrow nozzle with an even cut is used to create an inscription and obtain a lace pattern, even, wavy lines. Other decorations can be made. The cake will be more beautiful if you use different colors.

Polyethylene

You can make a do-it-yourself confectionery syringe from polyethylene. The material should be dense and transparent, with a zip fastener. You will need scissors to work. The procedure is performed on the basis of the following steps:

• You need to open the bag, fill it with cream.
• Then you need to fasten the fastener or fix the package with a knot.
• Then you should cut off the corner of the bag.

This product is not considered multifunctional. For example, it is unlikely that it will work to perform the same thickness with it. This also applies to figured decorations. But if there is no other way out, then such a bag is suitable for decorating a cake.

Paper

A do-it-yourself confectionery syringe made of paper provides more options. The basis can be confectionery parchment. For thick paper, a curly corner can serve as a nozzle. To get a product, you need to cut a triangle and roll it into a cone..

There should be no gaps between the layers of paper, as cream can pass through them. Then, from above, you need to fix the edges by bending them towards the center. The bag should be filled to the top. It is imperative to cut off the corner: the hole will serve to squeeze out the cream. The device can be used to decorate cakes.

Plastic bottle

A do-it-yourself confectionery syringe from a plastic bottle will allow you to create beautiful roses and other decorations. You will need a curly nozzle from a plastic bottle. To create a product, you will need a knife, a marker, a pastry bag.

The procedure involves the following actions:

• Cut off the neck of the plastic bottle.
• The required pattern should be drawn on the lid, and then cut out.
• It is necessary to screw the cap on the neck, fix the curly nozzle on the bag made.

This completes the do-it-yourself confectionery syringe. Using this method, you can create several nozzles so that you can perform various cake decorations. In addition to the cap, caps for nasal spray can be nozzles.

Use of fabric

You can make another confectionery syringe with your own hands. With a photo, this work will be much easier. The device can be sewn from fabric. The material should be easy to rub off. It is desirable to acquire a white color, as colored ones can fade. Dense teak is perfect, as it is durable, natural, it is easy to disinfect at high temperatures.

Cut out a triangle from the material, sew 2 sides. The size of the product can be any, the main thing is that the necessary portion of the cream is placed in it. The tip should be cut to the size of the attachments to be used. For this, both purchased attachments and homemade ones are suitable.

The seams must be tucked in and hemmed. It is advisable to perform work on a sewing machine, because this way the product will be reliable. The fixture is ready for cake decorating. It can be reused if washed and dried after each procedure.

Using a mayonnaise bag

A mayonnaise bag will help replace the pastry syringe. It is necessary to cut off the bottom of the package and then wash the product inside and out. In the other part there is a hole for squeezing out the cream. This option will allow you to carry out, though simple, but beautiful decorations. For this, bags from other products are also suitable, for example, from condensed milk, jam, mustard. Only the product must be absolutely clean.

File Application

You can use a stationery file to get the confectionery tool. Such a product is more suitable for single use. Its corner part must be filled with cream, and the corner must be cut off. By pressing on the contents, you can decorate the cake.

Oilcloth

To create such a product, you will need a triangle of oilcloth used on the farm. It is connected with wide tape to make a cone. The corner must be cut off so that the nozzle is fixed in the hole. Such a simple device will serve for decorating cakes. Its only drawback is that such a bag is disposable.

Using any of these methods, you get a practical do-it-yourself confectionery syringe. At home, you can create beautiful cakes and pastries. To make it easier to decorate pastries, you need to use the following tips:

• Using a bag, patterns should be done with the left hand, and with the right hand you need to hold and squeeze it a little.
• You do not need to immediately start performing complex landscapes, first you need to learn how to create something simple.
• Dots should be applied with a round nozzle.
• Asterisks are obtained with a curly nozzle.
• So that when working in the hand there is no tremor from tension, under the right left hand it is necessary to use it as a support.
• When creating small patterns or lettering, the nozzle should stick close to the baked goods.

Making cakes is fun. It is important to adhere to accuracy and caution in it. The modern confectionery industry is rich in a variety of decorating tools. Store products contain dyes, preservatives, additives. If you learn how to make cakes yourself, you can enjoy delicious and healthy homemade cakes. A hand-made bag will help to decorate your masterpieces, making them even more appetizing.

This is a very interesting and simple toy rocket launcher. Any teenager will absolutely love playing with her. Personally, I am quite an adult, and I am happy to launch rockets from this amazing structure.
The rocket launcher is fueled by ethyl alcohol vapor. Rockets soar into the air with a perky pop, which looks very impressive.

It will be needed to make a rocket launcher

I will make a rocket launcher from four missiles, so it is fashionable to multiply the following items by four times. You can make one rocket.

• Disposable syringe. I took 60 ml.
• Used lighter with piezoelectric element.
• Two-core wire 1-2 meters long.
• Small planks for the stand.
• Hot glue gun.
• Soldering iron, stationery knife, ruler and other available tools.

Making a toy rocket launcher

We take a lighter and disassemble it in order to pull out a piezoelectric element that generates a spark - a discharge of igniting gas.

We take out the piezoelectric element. This is the high-voltage generator itself. The wiring is one pin, and the other is the shiny cap on the bottom.

We take a two-core wire. It is advisable to choose with thicker insulation.

We connect to the piezoelectric element.

Then we insulate everything with electrical tape or, better, like me, with heat shrinkage.
We take two needles from the syringes. Here I want to warn you and suggest either to grind off the tip of the needles with a file or just bite off half a centimeter with pliers. This must be done without fail, as you can get injured during the game.
We connect the wires to the needles. These will be the electrodes that will be inside the rocket launcher.

We solder for reliability. But this is optional.

We take the syringe and take out the plunger.

Remove the rubber seal from the piston.

We make holes in the piston with a soldering iron.

We insert our needles-electrodes into these holes.

Fill with hot glue for sealing.

We take the rubber seal.

Cut off the top with a clerical knife.

We put on the modified piston with electrodes.

Fill the cylinder bore with hot glue. We won't need it anymore.

Cut off the skirt of the syringe barrel.

We take hard cardboard or plastic. And we cut out such rocket flight stabilizers from it.

We bend back a little.

You need four pieces for one rocket.

We glue it to the cylinder.

We collect the rocket launcher.

I made four of these rocket launchers.

To do a stand for the whole thing. I took a rectangular plank and drilled two small holes in the middle of the second half. You will understand why a little later.

Next, we take the second board, but already smaller. We drill a hole in the center for the wires. We glue it obliquely with hot glue. See the photo.

We glue all the rocket launchers.

At the back we fasten the wires with a nylon tie, all four wires.

The remote control is also a plate with piezoelectric elements glued to it on hot glue.
