Revision as of 04:54, 8 November 2005 by 71.115.214.228 (talk)
It is important to construct your launchers with care. This includes:
- Using pressure rated (NSF-PW or NSF-61) fittings and pipe, especialy in a pneumatic cannon.
- Solvent welding correctly
- Using pipe of the proper pressure rating, eg. sch 80 in a Hybrid Cannon.
- Only tap through a double layer of pipe where the pipe and a fitting is joined(for bolts, pressure gauges) .
Under no circumstances WHAT SO EVER should you use cell-core or unsleeved thinwall PVC pipe.
