Miller Electric

This was built to use at the local school instead of a traditional dunk tank. You hit the target, it moves the arm and punctures a balloon in the basket with a pointed spike. The water comes down on the person sitting in the chair. You can also use flour, slime, confetti, etc in the balloons. You can even use it indoors if you put the chair in a kiddie pool. The kids love to be in the chair as much as throwing the ball. Build This is made of mostly 1 in and 1 1/4 square tube. It breaks down into 4 pieces for easy transport. The base is basically a square and the backstop slides into it. The basket arm slides into the top of the backstop. The basket came from a plant hanger and took me two hours to beat the basket holder into a round shape using a hammer and a piece of pipe. The hinge for the target arm is 1 1/4 tube with one side cut out. The backstop is vinyl tarp and the target is aluminum diamondplate. Materials and Tools: Chopsaw, drill press, mig welder, torch, anvil, hammer, piece of pipe, Lathe, Arbor press
