Very nice, you have been just whipping out projects and showing them to the world.

I have actually built a coaxial myself with a 3/4 inch barrel and a 1 1/2 inch chamber that i need to put here on spudfiles.

the paint job is nice, and make sure that your sprinkler valve doesnt take a crap on you, mine did so i had to replace the sprinkler valve with a 3/4 inch ball valve.

Expecting some nice videos.

Oh and im really happy now because my parts for my 4 inch piston cannon come in 2 days, Monday!!! :D Cant wait to get started on it.

yeah there yellow paper tubes :wink: , thanks but i would have thought people would have said it looks a little to skinny for an anti-tank launcher since its only 2'' pipe,I though it would need like a 3'' tube to make it look authentic but eh, i dont have that kind of pipe available to me to me :evil:

That is a very well made coaxial you got there.I am yet to build my first coaxial.And abot the 3in pipe look in your phone book for plumbing supply shops check out a couple of them looking for the cheapest prices and they will all have atleast up to 6in in pipe and fittings.Just use the cheapest one.
