Operating principle
A spray gun is a device designed for applying paint and varnish material and other liquids to objects by spraying. The result of the work in this case looks better than doing it manually.
The principle of operation of the device is to supply paint and air under high pressure to the nozzle of the device.
The air stream breaks up the paint and varnish, mixes with it, turning into fine dust. Thus, the working composition leaving the nozzle evenly covers the entire working surface.

Regular pen
How to make a spray bottle with your own hands? There are several options for such designs. One of the easiest ways is to use a ballpoint pen. This is the most primitive design. You can assemble it in just 30 minutes.
The operating principle of such a device is simple. A man blows into the tube of the pen body. Splashes of paint burst out through it on the other side. The material must be blown with high intensity. If you do this half-heartedly, the drops of paint will not spread evenly over the surface. You can practice before starting work.
To make such a spray gun, you will need to purchase:
- regular gel pen,
- container into which the paint will be poured,
- a needle from a regular syringe.
A small bottle can be used as a container. It must have a lid. It is better to prepare not one, but several needles. They may break during operation of the device.
