I was bored so I started to make a mini spud gun with a metal chamber!
Details:
1.5cm wide pvc barrel
1" metal chamber
long lighter sparker

I haven't launched anything yet because I'm out of fuel right now..
BUT! when I will, it will be very powerful!

I think you should resize your photos before posting ;p

Nice little ghetto setup though, but a little large for a "mini". Everything's relative I suppose.

Very generous JSR 8) I agree about the size of the pics, i had two cafe lattes waiting for the things to load :shock:

My favourite feature is the barrel angle, it would allow for carefree shooting :P

You should invest in a BBQ piezo too mate, that little thing will cark it sooner rather than later. Happy spudding :)

Hmmmmmmm.
the "mini" i'm working on has a 3" x 8" combustion chamber with 29" and 38" long 1" barrels, all the parts, plus a propane tank and a 5lb sack of spuds will sit behind the seats of my smart and not even intrude into the luggage area.
