Does anyone know the mechanics of a paintball gun well enough to explain to me how to make one?

1. Cut PVC pipe into the shape of a gun.
2. Add incredible amounts of compressed air at the closed end of the tube.
3. ????
4. PROFIT

Unfortunately I already knew that part.. Could you explain the compressed air part better? I'm trying to make it shoot into three tubes, either simultaneously or in an order (I'm not picky)

Both good explainations on how it works. Me? I just have a big airtank on my back, a little one on my hip, a pvc pipe with a pressure switch actuator (of w/e tf it's called)and a tube connecting the pipe to the little tank, and a hose connecting the little one to the big one with another air switch. Both in easy to reach places.

I'll see what I can do about giving you a diagram.

Still too complicated >_<

I'm trying to do this with NO budget. I have some pvc tube and that's about all.
