The pump is just a old elect water pump my day used in his race boat . all the lines and check valves and spreyers im useing air festo air push in fittings for work . I hope they work and hold water but will see its all fun and games . the nozles for now will just be garden watering ones I found in my garage. I just need a tank to mount in the tray . I found one on ebay with a level in it that holds 3.5ltrs il prob get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
