When I buy most things I always wonder if I could build that and maybe build it better, my wife says it's a sickness. Having seen surf fishermen use air powered bait cannons to get their bait past the second sand bar, why wouldn't it work for fish feeders? Cheap, almost all PVC, few moving parts and probably cover a larger area. I bet it can be kludged together with available off-the-shelf components. Maybe it can double as a candy dispenser on the Christmas parade float to reach the smaller kids who can't fight their way through the bigger kids to the front of the crowd. Just a fleeting thought.
