Young Punkin Chunkin (slideshow)

Dale Dougherty and Bill Gurstelle of MAKE Magazine visit the Punkin Chunkin World Championships in Millsboro, Delaware. Lots of families come to Punkin Chunkin, some of them for all of the twenty-one years the event has existed. And many of them are local to the area near Millsboro, Delaware. In recent years, even the sons and grandsons of the founding fathers have begun bringing their own air guns to the championship. In this part 3 of the Punkin Chunkin 2006 series, we’ll meet Robert Guido of Soldier Too and Michael Nelson of Ozone Blaster. We’ll also meet Bob and Sherri Davis who make Punkin Chunkin a family affair and who entered the Adult Human Powered category with a rig that uses garage door springs from a dumpster.
