8) Yep lol Im trying to make a simple piston air cannon for my first try on a piston valve, have not made them before so il need help and a design:P.
I would prefer it to be a PVC design.


If that is possible it would be greatly appreciated by me.

Thanks

At the top of the page there is a SEARCH function. Learn it, use it, live it, love it, but never abuse it!!

If possible, I would like you to loan me 100 dollars. If that is possible it would be greatly appreciated by me.


Thanks

heres your first start go buy pvc pipe

ooooh burn....
Mate best advice, go to bunnings and grab some pvc or steel/brass fittings depending on the pressure your using. (pvc for 0-150psi + anything above that use steel) buy a Quick Exhaust Valve (QEV) off eBay/local pneumatic shop. Exhaust valves are basically a ready made piston valve. it can be very frustrating designing and building a piston gun because you have to get the piston just right or the valve will fail. pilot the valve with a blowgun or ball valve and your golden.

you already got the relevant advice here: http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/anyone- ... ter,0.html

I am feeling generous today here is a awesome diagram this is as good as it gets. If you cannot figure it out than you have issues!! Also, Mr. Crowley or any other moderator, can we make this a sticky?? I think it would be good for the noob, I mean new people!!

Would just go to wast since none of em search, when you make a account it should show you the how to use search thread then you have to do 10 searches before you can make a topic/post in a topic, it would also stop spammers.
