Modder, you dont need to change ur meter pipe size, just put a regulator before the meter pipe?? as for the 6x mix w/ sch40, let me be the ginuea pig - dont go getting hurt! :) Yeh, i thought you were planning on only using 2x by what you said. Im not sure if you will be able to resist curiosity tho...

one works the other doesnt. its all in the fueling method. mine is a gen. 1 (doh!) it uses a meter like a combustion and is nearly impossible to get right. um??? maybe your metering is off, ive had 0 missfires using my JAUSH from 1x mixes to 7x mixes. And the chamber volume is tiny (requires more a...

sch40 barrel should be fine with your setup (assuming ur main use is 2x???), what mixes are u planning to go to?? For your chamber with sch80 PVC 2" , i would glue straight fittings over the entire chamber, to give you double the wall thickness since it is pvc (if ur thinking about 3x). For testing ...

It wont go supersonic as your just dumping air with a valve (impossible to be supersonic). However it will be abel to get to 1000fps imo, with barrel tweaking and 200psi, you should use heavier BB's, theyre still so light i doubt it will really effect the fps @ 200psi, but would help accuracy / rang...

How inaccurate are we talking?? I use marbles alot with smoothbore, accuracy is fairly solid, not really anything that compares to a sphere for smoothbore barrels. simple way to increase ACCURACY would be to use heavier marbles, or metal ball bearings. Of course this will result in a loss of fps, bu...

It appears your parents lack logical minds. Just explain to them about the gun in detail, about how you need to inject the correct propane volume etc, all that - Then say to them simply, I am intelligent enough to create this thing yet you seem to think you know more about its safety. How old are yo...

I use marbles from the 2 dollar shops, they are in bags and called decorative marbles, they are 16mm diameter. Perfect barrel for them is found at bunnings hardware, or an electrical supply shop - 20mm PVC conduit, it is grey in colour and has "aussieduct 20mm upvc" printed on it. here is a link to ...

Hi all, I have a shooting chrony jus tnot setup for low-light usage yet. The chamber didnt cost me that much, As the raw piece isnt that big (bought off ebay), and a fitter and turner friend of mine did all the machining for $70AU - the aluminium is 2024 with tensile strength of 70,000PSI. I will be...

Homedepotpro, I dont fire it from upstairs, and its very loud, but the brick walls and pillars seem to muffle the sound alot, i fire all day and it bothers no neighbours or anything and isnt loud at all to anyone standing in my backyard :D. DYI, I have only been firing some lightweight pine wood slu...

the whole time i have used the bottom cut out of disposable plastic cups, cheap ones, cost me $5AU for 100, so its 5cents / shot they wont blow @ 2x, havent tried them @ 3x, they blow at 4x , and highest ive tested so far is 7x. 2x makes around 140-150psi combustion, but thats only for a minimal tim...
