Here is the first airgun I made, before I found the forums. Most of the people I show this and the 2289 I posted awhile ago like this better. I think it is because of the contraption aspect.
I fill it to 200psi using a 12v pump (or did until the pump broke). From that I get 3 or 4 power shots that penetrate both sides of a pop can. Then many more shots slowly decreasing in power. The barrel is brake line .177 pellets fit almost perfectly. The breech is just a piece of clear tubing. The trigger pulls across the gun not inline. It was a fun project that led to a new hobby but now the ball valves leak so I think it will just be a conversation starter from now on.
