HOLI is the festival of colors in India. This is a very simple and eco-friendly water squirt or a PICHKARI. You need an old plastic water bottle; a bicycle spoke nut and a scissors. Make a small hole in the lid by rotating the scissors. Remove the nipple nut from the bicycle spoke. This nut is made of brass. Take this nut and press fit it from below in the middle hole of the lid. Because the nut has a head it will not be pushed out. Now the bottle lid has an orifice. Take this lid and screw it on a bottle filled with colored water. On squeezing the bottle water will come out like a jet. You can squirt color water on your friends with this homemade Water Squirt.
