I don't know about other states, but dispensers are not available in
|
|
Kansas. A friend has one, but he is from Missouri and I don't know where he
|
|
got his. However, for about $2 you can make your own with PVC pipe
|
|
parts from any hardware store.
|
|
|
|
All you need is a "T" or "L" pipe with threads in one end, a nail, a pipe
|
|
fitting for the cartridge, and some silicon sealant (make sure it says
|
|
"food contact surface safe"--you don't want to inhale noxious sealant stuff).
|
|
|
|
I put mine together like this:
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
balloon here --> | | nail | cap this end
|
|
| | |
|
|
------------ ------------
|
|

|
|
| | <---threads in this end
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cartridge holder screws in here
|
|
|
|
| | <--threaded end
|
|
| |
|
|
/ \
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
------- plug fits in bottom
|
|
(you'll have to play with
|
|
it a little to get the
|
|
correct length for the nail
|
|
to pierce the cartridge)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I don't remember which size nail I used, as it was an a variety pack with
|
|
all sorts of tacks and stuff. Glue the nail in first with shitloads of the
|
|
silicon sealant, and then you can fiddle arount with the cartridge holder part
|
|
to get the correct length. The pipe parts are 3/4 inch. If you bring
|
|
a cartridge with you to the store you can find the parts easier. A friend
|
|
made one with an "L" shaped top part instead, and it works fine too.
|
|
|
|
When the whippit comes out, it is VERY VERY cold. Don't get your hands anywherenear the stuff, and don't use METAL pipe for a dispenser or you will burn
|
|
yourself and this sucks.

I too, have a homemade version I made out of PVC pipe. It never occurred
|
|
to me that they'd *sell* the crackers as well as the cartridges. My design
|
|
is very similar to the one posted, except I used an angle piece instead of
|
|
a T. It looks very similar to an asthma inhaler, but won't work like one.
|
|
With this design you don't need and sealant either.
|
|
|
|
As far as the extreme cold produced - I load the cartridge, screw it in to
|
|
the point just before it gets punctured, and fill the area left in the PVC
|
|
with water. Hot water works slightly better, but just slightly since the
|
|
water turns quickly cold. Attach the balloon, and puncture. Then it's
|
|
just a matter of keeping everything facing up so the water covers where the
|
|
nitrous comes out. It's a bit of a pain when filling a balloon with more
|
|
than one cartridge, but before using this, I had a couple freeze closed
|
|
before they were completely empty. It hasn't happened since I started using
|
|
the water method.

Any Questions?
