Description
So I wanted to make a prop syringe for my RepoMan costume… Yeah, I know he doesn’t actually carry one, but seemed like he would so… yeah.

I wound up doing almost all of it with parts from thrift stores, LOL.

Parts used from needle to top:

Bamboo skewer (I had a bunch)
Screw-on replacement metal tip for a hot glue gun (12 cents at goodwill- Gotta love 75% off when you’re not even looking for it)
Aircraft Fuel tester (99 cents brand new and probably one of the weirder things I’ve found at Goodwill)
PVC 1 inch pipe coupler and plug ($1.50 at Home Depot and the only part not from a thrift store)
Screw on round spring clips (50 cents for the set from Deseret Industries)

The spring clips were covered with spray on plastic dip. Overall, I’m pretty happy… and it looks oddly steampunk with the copper coloring around the clear tube.
