Just an idea that just occurred to me. Would it be possible to make a paintball making machine that would be small enough and simple enough for someone to own and run overnight to make a batch of fresh, decent-quality paintballs?
Something where you just put in three things: Gelatin, Fill, and Lubricant (for the machine, not the paintballs).
The Gelatin and Fill would both be purchased in a powder form from AGD or something, then are mixed with water prior to feeding into the machine. The machine would make the paintballs and put them in a drying tumbler or something.
Possible?

I'm sure it's possible... for a price. That is probably very, very high.
Ooooo...another project for Mr. Kaye :)

of course that was polystyrene shells, different stuff.
I still own part of that company. We were hoping at one time to be able to make an "at home" system.

by at home he means in your hopper/warp feed combo. Gelatin in the warp, paint mixture in the hopper. They're made as you shoot!!! :p
Props on being the man again TK and inspiring me to pick up not only the game, but another mag!

First the shoebox then the idea/hope of home made paintballs my wallet is shrinking so fast it might rip my leg off when it implodes.

If I ever think of a way, I will do it.
