If this is the 1st time building a spud cannon, your at the right place.

Here you can learn simple concepts of cannon building. Learn mini cannon, combustion cannon and pneumatic cannon building. The building process for the 3 basic types of cannons is basically the same.

Mini Cannon

The mini cannon is exactly that, mini. It fits in the palm of your hand. All you need is a pill bottle, (screw on or twist lock lid), ink pen or marker tube (insides removed) and a ignition source (piezo, bar-b-que grill igniter or a camera flash circuit).


Combustion Cannon

To build a combustion cannon you need a chamber, barrel, coupler, reducer bushing, clean out cap (PVC) and a ignition source (piezo, bar-b-que grill igniter or a camera flash curcuit).


Pneumatic Cannon

To build a pneumatic cannon you need a chamber, barrel, 2 coupler's, reducer bushing, plug (PVC) shrader valve (for filling the chamber with air) and a air pump.
