blowing with your mouth into the chamber to vent isn't blowing oxygen, its blowing nitrogen and other minority elements into the chamber. Dont use pure oxygen for venting, it works more as a combustion gas than a cleaner. If you want to vent use something like a fan or an air compressor to blow air ...

Since its combustion, i dont have a long read time, but i tweaked my gague, so that it jumps up to where it was going and stops, and slowly comes down. I load about 30 PSI of my propane/oxygen mixture. I've clocked it at 480 before. It has amazing power. I found that the "gun" type caulking tubes sh...

It is a plexiglass which is arcrylic. Arcrylic IS brittle, but is very strong. It does work, I pressure tested it to 500 PSI

heh, that is a cool page. My barrel is 5' I didn't have the potato sucking back in, it shot really far. However, for my combustion chamber it is .25" thick clear walls and i'm using a mixture of 1 part pure oxygen burst and 2 parts propane burst. The shot i just did turned the potato into little shr...

in my spud gun (I have a dual chamber) I have a computer fan for each chamber. The first time i launched with the fan, the fan melted and the wires were stripped of their coating. What the hell is wrong? I've seen other people with built-in fans, but theirs didn't completely get blown to shreds.

What are the dimensions of your combustion chamber?
What are the pros/cons of a rifled barrel?
