Try freezing the paintballs that should keep them intact. Try glass marbles used in slingshots they are a beautiful thing to shoot.

Just a paint job and your set
Also nice construction minimal staining = GOOD
-nicely done filling method and appears easy and fast to fill

capacitors

I am looking to create a large ignition system.
Looking at capacitors i see that many i find are low in voltage but many have varying farad ratings. I looked up farad and cant seem to quite grasp what it means.

So as far as i know a large amount of volts are needed to jump a gap in air not farads.

Is your chamber sealed otherwise propane may be leaking out to fast.

Also what size is your meter that is important to know.
- size of pipe
- length

daberno- aluminum pop can layers can easily hold that in a cam-lock

I wouldn't trust cam-locks on a hybrid past 4x ever, but for any combustion cannons you should be fine.

Take apart the valve and check the diaphram and seat for any debris even if it is the smallest piece of metal or wood.

Also if all the equilization hole is too big then all the air will go out of the pilot hole.

I thought you had the 4" male adapter and inside of that was a 4-2 reducer and a plug to cover that hole then you simply unscrewed the male adapter to vent. On a side note you could build this http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/3006/picture067pr8.jpg http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/7189/picture069nq9...
