Design ideas
Posted: Thu Nov 16, 2006 7:42 pm
Hi everone, I'm new here to Spudfile forums, but look very forward to chatting about these fine pieces of homemade artillery.
My name is James, and I live in West Texas. I've been a fan of cannons and mortars for a very long time and just recently started getting into spud guns.
So here is my inquiry for help.
I am looking to build a mortar (short barrel, no wheels ect.) like gun that fires paintballs, golf balls, or something else (minus golf balls) that splats on the ground.
I wish for the mortar to look similar to this (short barrel is what I mean):
I am really wanting to be able to fire it with hairspray or whatever makes the least noise and power, as I live somewhat in town.
Can anybody help me with a design?
I would also like to build a cannon capable of firing the same way that will fire golf balls.
Thanks for any help!
