To be honest any body here with a machine can done this or even better. Building this it's a wast of time, if you want some thing like this why don't you just buy one? That probably will be cheaper and better made and with a stock.
Listen to what you just said, that's like me telling you all of your cannons are copies of an original idea, nothing special, they were a waste of time to build and there aren't any technical innovations, and that any idiot can build them with the right tools.
Doesn't feel so good does it?

Also think about the entire hobby of spudding, why build cannons if you can just buy commercial air cannons and firearms? The reason is that the self-satisfaction of building your own cant be bought commercially. Also any air gun shipped to France is incredibly expensive, so perhaps you should consider things such as there before posting such rash observations. Also if you say you have access to great tools, why have I not seen anything this nice like this come from you?
Yeah, it's that important.

We spuders [sic] we do innovations, we don't just read a book copy a design and let machines finish the job, that's not fun.
Let's test that theory, shall we?

I got bored after ten pages, but here's what you've built recently:

-Basic coaxial piston valve (design available in SpudWiki)
-Airsoft gun which is little more than a blowgun with a barrel attached
-Barrel sealing piston valve (design available in SpudWiki)
-Basic penguns
-Standard BBMG (design available in SpudWiki)
-Coaxial diaphragm valve (design available in SpudWiki)
-Butane-powered combustion
-Pistol which you freely admit uses one of JSR's valve designs
-Exceedingly simple pellet design using drag stabilization
-And finally, a small burst disk gun which you pressurize with a store-bought pump until the valve opens. (I'm sure that one took a lot of "brain work", eh?)


One can only conclude that your poor grasp of English caused you to forget, or not be aware, that the word "we"implies the inclusion of the speaker in the group referred to.

@NENETTE: I'm not much of a pneumatics man myself, but from what I can see the build quality on this thing is nearly on par with HyGaC20. It's probably the best finished plinker build I've seen in quite a while. Keep up the good work, and build some hybrids :wink:

Sorry, I'm with DYI here. I think wyz2285 opinion is incredibly immature. This gun that NENETTE built is extremely nice. Probably one of the best manufactured guns on the site.

Thumbs up to you, and don't let ignorant opinions like his discourage you. Keep it up!!

Je te l'ai déjà dit sur le PTTF, très beau travail, très propre et la puissance a l'air aussi au rendez-vous.

Par contre, fait gaffe avec ton CP ne pas monter trop haut, genre 40 à chaque fois il va pas durer longtemps.

Looks like a version of the design popularised by H.M. Buckleys book.

Any chance of a look at the workings?
