| The smaller the chamber, the more power, any size works, just don't make it huge. |

| The compressor is a Campbell/Hausfeld 2 gallon, 100psi. I got it from Harbor Freight for about $60usd. Thanks for the kind words. -Lp |

| If you want a tighter barrel, try PEX tubing...... you buy it by the toilet flexy hoses..... its a perfect fit and comes in 30 inch lengths. its good stuff........ kinda bendy tho if you want it straight you need to sheath it in somehting. |

| It's possible, you just need a regulator. |

| Well lukemc, I start off at 100psi, which drains VERY quickly. It's usually good for about 5-10 seconds of a nice ROF. I recently built an air tank which I pump up to 150psi and that allows me to shoot 4.5mm steel bb's quite effectively. The more air pressure you can put behind the 'cloud' the better, imho. Have fun! -Lp |

| Very nice! Looks like mine, except my barrel is crooked, it isn't painted, and it's held together with masking tape... Oh well, a guy can dream! Great gun. |

| i really don't like to ask for help but me and my friend just started making spudguns and uh i was making one today and it wouldn't fire. first i figured the barrel was to big ( well because looking at it it was) so then i replaced it with a smaller one. it still didn't work. and i checked the sparker, it was definitely making sparks. so what i thought was that there was to much leaking. and now for my dumb question. if theres a tiny hole in the chamber, does that stop it from going at all? also if the seal between the barrel and the chamber is not so tight, does that to a great bit of damage? my last question. after putting in fuel, do i need to wait a while to launch it? like by a while i mean like 30 seconds or so. hey whoa this was a long post. i just realized that. ok well if you'd like to help me, then respond |
