Funnels and plastic tubing

When West saw the contraption I made he said "ah, nice!"

It was cold out and I didn't want him getting soaked so I filled up a squeeze bottle with water and food coloring and let him go to town. This could easily be played with inside by putting the whole thing in a large plastic container to catch the water.

How to make it:

Clear, flexable plastic tubing of different diameters

funnels

metal garden stakes

zip ties

piece of wood

maybe some hot glue

power drill

I drilled two holes in the wood that were just slightly smaller than the garden stakes and hot glued the stakes in place. Then, I secured the funnels to the tubing. One piece of plastic tube fit in a funnel snuggly and the other fit over the other funnel. You can hot glue them in place if you feel like the tubes might slip off the funnels. Now, hot glue or zip tie the funnels to the top of the garden stakes and continue occasionally zip tieing the tubes in place down the stakes. And you're done! You can also at T's or valves to make it more exciting.
