The Peruvian crew Fumakaka has invented an ingenious graffiti spraygun that’s far superior to the common
fire extinguisher. Their lightweight Sembrador de Terror (Terror Planter) can be constructed with everyday
materials, easily refilled with different colors (well maybe not so easily but with a little practice…) and
repeatedly pressurized with an ordinary bicycle pump. It sprays high and fast for super tags in half the time.
As part of the Memoria Canalla project, Columbian writers invited 5 Fumakaka crew members to Bogota to
give a master class. Fumakaka obligingly put together diagrams and an illustrated manual.

In an effort to do my part to spread the spray to a few more continents, I am posting their plans.
Warning: wear old clothes—-malfunctions can occur.
