fanta cannon

[Darkside 6ix]

this is my own for of a zooka. goin from muzzle to chamber; 1" coupler, 1" 2" shc 40,1" male adapter, 1" lawn gene sprinkler valve/blowgun, 1" male adapter, 1" 4' sch 40, schrader valve. any kinda bottle will do.

EDIT: i like it cause its portable

[djt]

awesome i love cannons that use trash. looks nice too. and for the question i always ask...how did you attach the bottle to the pvc?

[Darkside 6ix]

i drilled a hole in the cap of the bottle. kause its almost a perfect fit for the 1". so the i JB welded it. so its kinda double in strength

Yay for orange fanta . It is pretty cool looking i think i might make one. How high can you pump it up?

Edit: Its all 1" right?

[frogy]

Cool idea, but it's not really portable... lol

Blowguns don't work as good the way you have it, the 1/4" side should go into the sprinkler valve... I didn't even know Lawn Genies worked

Cool gun, using pop bottles isn't really because it's easy or cheap.... It's because it looks cool, nice cannon...

It's about $1.50 for a 20\24 oz of pop and it's only about $0.80 for 2 90's to make a chamber that's like this, and they have about the same volume...

I think he means you can take it apart so its compact.

[Darkside 6ix]

yes that what i mean. cause my other cannon wasnt able to be taken apart. and i want to be able to take my cannons on the air plane.(oviously not as carry on). cause my other one got mailed back to my house cause theywouldnt let it on. i also like this design because i can switch barrels and chambers. @ blue tooth, i use my bike pump and yes it is all 1"

[Bluetooth]

I mean how many psi do you pump it up to?

[Darkside 6ix]

duno about 10 pumps? ill check it out right now

[Bluetooth]

how long and wide is the metal cylinder thing that fills up with air each time you pump it on your pump because i think all pumps might be different.

[Darkside 6ix]

the schrader valve? or the air chuck on the pump?

[Bluetooth]

the cylindedr that the plunger slides up and down in.
edit: i with you just had a pressure gauge so you could tell me the psi

[Darkside 6ix]

yea lol i wish i had a pressure gauge. i was going to get one at home depot. but damn they are huge and heavy.and the pump is about 1.5" round and bout 2 feet long.

i have a question. what would be good to fire out a 1" barrel?

[Bluetooth]

Thnx for your help mine is exactly the same. For a 1" barrel you could use some type of sabot and shoot anything less than 1" or my favorite self sealing ammo a potato.

how powerful is it?
