Customizable Water Blaster
Inventor: Kevin
Invented at age 14

He had a problem: Kevin wanted a paintball gun but his mother wouldn’t let him have one. He liked how you could change the parts almost anyway you wanted. He thought there was no water gun that had customizable features and components similar to the paintball kind.

He had an idea: Kevin combined construction play with outdoor fun! He designed his own water blaster with a variety of changeable parts so that each time you play it seems like you have a brand new water shooter.

He developed it: His design starts out with a base water unit that includes several interchangeable functional and cosmetic parts including nozzles, blasters, hoses, side panels and other features and parts.

The idea was a hit: Kevin was the 2005 Chester Award winner in the By Kids for Kids Xerox National Invention Competition.

Kevin’s favorite thing about school is his friends and his least favorite thing is class!
