How are you fueling and igniting? How fast do you expect it to shoot- shots per second and muzzle velocity?
Some specs would be nice on this too. It looks like a well-done build with some serious potential.

Yeah, it looks good. Does it have a loading mechanism or is it just like 6 seperate combustion guns?
Anyway, it looks good...

Most homemade gatings like these are just separate combustion launchers that rotate and when a wire or something gets connected it sparks.

it's not finished, it will fire 300 shot / min (i hope all will be functionnaly )
it' s a loading mechanism, the spinning system is under construction , with a 12v motor.

looking very good, will you be feeding a fuel/air mixture into the chambers? It doesn't like it's going to be a one-shot-per-barrel design like the others illustrated here...

it' s not a one shot / barrel, sorry but in english i can't explain all, it's too hard for me. sorry..
Maybe this schéma can help you to understand the refueling system.

I saw that on the patator forum, what will you be feeding into the chambers? fuel mixed with air, or just fuel? I have to say, very ingenious setup

Aah, that looks like a very elegant way of fuelling if you can get it to work. Though it does seem to have the potential to flash-back into whatever's feeding the fuel-air mix, presuming it is a pre-mixed gas you'll be piping in. Still, very nice!

who said you can't have two separate channels drilled in it ? one for air and the other for propane ?

Very true POLAND_SPUD, I hadn't considered that possibility.
