I am making a two man cow mascot and one of the requirement is shooting water out of the udder.
I've tried using a super soaker inside the cow's body,but when I connect a brass pipe with a small diameter to the nozzle,the water just shoot about 3 feet.
What else can I use?

What about the nozzle mechanism from a garden hose?

Hey Frankie,

How far do you want it to shoot? I have a battery operated method that would take up less space then a Super Soaker and shoots the water up to 15'.

Hi Michael,Anything that is connected to the super soaker will diminish the force of the water coming out.
And Nick,I would really love to have it battery operated and space is a concern.
It needs to shoot out from the satge into the audience so I 15 feet sounds good to me!

Maps, if you get your audience wet without announcing this will happen before attendants are sold any tickets, and offering rain coats or coverings, you will be sued and maybe arrested for assault. This is 2013 and getting people wet is not a good choice, it is not funny either. At the least you may have to buy everyone new clothing, and get your broken noise fixed.

Remove the nozzle from the soaker and put it on the end of a piece of flexible tubing in the udder. Fix the other end where the nozzle was on the ss.

Hi Raven,
I'll try that and see how it goes tomorrow.
