Make your own net gun with these plans from a nice man who doesn't want to hurt anybody, really

Chris is very angry that we have not yet linked to his project on Instructables, in which he teaches us how to build a fully working net gun out of PVC and compressed air for around $75. "But you ignored my how to build a net gun Instructable," says Chris, after pointing out other links today. "I owe you a netting."

We're all tremendous wussies, Chris, so I'm just going to leave this link right here and type away slowly. This can work out fine for everybody, Chris. Think about your kids.

Gosh, what a mighty fine link about making your own net gun. Sure am glad you made it, Chris. Everybody is. We all like you. [Instructables.com]

I didn't think that this was the kind of place that you made demands of.

Kinda screws up the magic when you do that.

He was only teasing!

Sorry I was in "Brock Samson" mode.

It's been happening.

We're cool, the netting is off the table.

I simply pointed out that it was a bit unfair to link to a net gun http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2008/03/17/net2000-shooting-net.html and link to an instructable http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2009/01/05/its-safe-to-say-bar2.html, but not link to an instructable about a net gun.

I'll give him a "hell yeah!"

I hate the people who make stuff out of PVC on Instructables. I hate on them.

Thank you Joel for making yet another post that tickles my funny bone and broadens my horizons.

This thing could be a nice addition on my farm for catching chickens and turkeys.

I'll put it on my farm blog today and maybe help the inventor Chris get a few extra votes in that craftsman contest thing he mentioned in the instructions....unless he objects.....because I don't want to get netted.

Finally, a way to retrieve my overly-excited dog from the dog park when she decides she's not done with playtime.
