How to Make The Ghost Shrimp Pump - Slurp Gun
You can get all the parts needed at your local hardware store. PVC Parts needed: 2" x 30" long, 2" cap, 3/4" x 33" long, 3/4" cap, 3/4" elbow, 2" PVC test plug, 1 washer with 3/8" hole, approx 1.5" diameter , PVC cement
Cut your 2" PVC, and drill a 1" hole in the 2" cap. Assemble without cement. Then examine your test plug. If it comes with a washer on top that is larger than 2", replaced it with one that is slightly smaller.
The washer that you replace it with should be around 1.5". Too small and the squeezing action of the test plug will not work as well. , After you've sized and ensured the washer is good, disassemble the plug. Drill a hole in the 3/4" cap sized for the bolt of the plug. The bolt is a carriage bolt, and if the hole is sized tightly the carriage end will have enough material to grip to on the cap. If it's drilled too large, the assembly may spin without tightening the plug. Assemble the cap and plug as shown here, then ensure you've got it working. Next cut your 3/4" PVC to the length you feel is the most comfortable. We suggest 33", but it's up to you. Using PVC cement, assemble the 3/4" pipe to the plug assembly. Slide this into the 2" pipe and check that it is comfortable. You will be pulling the handle up very high, check if that is comfortable as well.
When you're satisfied with the length of the 3/4", add your elbow for a better grip. You could also add more pipe out the other side for a larger handle if you wished.
Best of Luck--- JD
