yeah, actually I would think that would work great. Why wouldn't it? It would just be like smooshing a round barrel down flat.

Okay so I bought the R/C motor at a local hobby shop. A little over $30 with tax and all of that thrown in. I looked at various wheels and tires for the firing mechanism and nothing seemed to promising. Anyony else have any ideas?

what if you used a rather large piece of pvc and heated enough to where you could flatten one end and stick a cd in it to keep a nice tight fit for a cd. might take some stretching but i could see it working

Hey thanks for the new project. My spudgun is out of ammo and a friend killed my back drop so I need a new project because its supposed to rain tomorrow. I am going to use an old 1700 rpm motor from an old generator heres the generator:

this would be cool for a homemade skeet shoot, one of them cost around 500-800 australian dollares that is automatic and all. and for what 60 australian you could make your own.
