I'm sure there's a how-to somewhere that I've missed, but what are some good, simple ways to make a bucket of gunge or water pour onto a victim sitting under it when the victim pulls the cord? I'm wanting to put together my own little gunge tank but I cant figure out the most sure-fire way to the bucket of gunge to turn upside and empty out.
I was able to rig up something once by hanging the bucket on a hook over the bathtub, then taping string to the bottom edge of the bucket on the opposite side from where I was intending to have the gunge pour out of the bucket, then looping that string over another hook on the ceiling. Pull string down, bucket bottom comes up, gunge comes out.
you could cut a hole in the bucket, and put some type of stopper connected to the rope in it. Just make sure whatever you use for the stopper is denser then the gunge.
I made a crude one this morning as I was in a bit of a rush to get messy and cleaned up before my GF got home from work as i don't often have any time alone to my self.
I got a bucket drilled a hole in it, about 22mm, a length of wood and positioned it diagonally above our shower, it meant the bucket was hanging a little low but I still had a great time getting covered in custard.
I have added some pictures to show how it was done, that is 8 KG or 8 Litres of custard in there so was quite weighty as well.
All I did to stop it coming out was but a jar lid over the hole and the weight of the custard was enough to hold it in place, I then reached in and pulled it out.
You could also use one of those all-in-one toilet flapper valve repair kits which could be obtain at any hardware store. Run a string to it and you have a pull handle.
