Beat the Heat: 3D Print Your Own Electric Water Gun for Summer Fun
**DIY Summer Fun: How to 3D Print Your Own Electric Water Gun** As summer approaches, a new trend in recreational gadgets is emerging from the world of 3D printing: the electric water gun. A recent video by creator LesImprimantes3D.fr showcases the step-by-step process of constructing such a device, combining off-the-shelf electronics with custom 3D-printed components. The project begins with the acquisition of an electronics kit, available from online retailers like the Bambu Lab store. This kit provides the necessary internal mechanisms to power the water gun. The video highlights that printing the plastic housing and other structural parts requires approximately 10 hours of 3D printing time and consumes over 260 grams of filament. Utilizing a Bambu Lab H2D 3D printer, the creator demonstrates the fabrication of the vibrant yellow and blue components. The printing process is shown in detail, emphasizing the precision required for the parts to fit together seamlessly. Once all parts are printed, the assembly phase involves integrating the electronic kit with the newly printed plastic shell. The finished electric water gun is then put to the test in an outdoor environment, demonstrating its ability to rapidly fire water streams. The project offers an engaging blend of technology and leisure, providing a unique DIY option for summer entertainment.
