I've been working on a gungetank mechanism that goes into a bucket for home use. I've just finished the final version and tested it (that's the kind of scientific testing I can really get behind). It's been designed for 3d printing with the addition of a few parts. I was thinking about making them available for sale in the UK and making the files purchasable for the rest of the world.
It's not actually vacuum operated, but I can see that it looks like that. Yes we've tested it with a full bucket of both messy pup gunge and messy supplies standard. With an 80mm bore and no nozzle it dumps it quite fast. There's a selection of different nozzle shapes to slow things down a bit for longer gungings with different patterns. Feel free to message me if you have any other questions.

It looks fantastic from the pictures. How long did it take to drain the bucket (I'm presuming it was a standard 10 litre one)? Are you able to elaborate on what nozzles and attachments there are?

This looks incredible, amazing job. I assume from the pictures that you cut a hole in the bottom of the bucket, so the nozzle passes through, I can't figure out the release mechanism though.
Are you planning to make any pics/footage showing it in use?

Watched it again and I can see I was wrong uts lifting under pressure not vacuum. How are you generating the pressure to open it or am I completely wrong again and you are just pulling the tube up. Or are you using magic

Yes you will need to cut your own hole in your chosen gunge vessel. then the device goes through the hole with a bit of silicone sealant. I'll work on getting some better images if it all together and I'll have a think about how I could do a demo video.
