Grind down those welds and polish the whole thing, then I'll Like it.

yep, I'll do some about the rough finish, but I also kind of like the "ghetto"-metal feeling of home made cannons/contraptions.

I'm currently working on the different parts in the mechanism and barrel-to-chamber fitting. I'm tired of leaking guns ( http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/3d-doom ... t8407.html) so this time I do it right from the start.

Well yeah, but perhapse I put something else in the word ghetto. What I mean is that I rather put work on welding, construction and thinking than doing details, painting and grinding! thats all.

You have no idea how dispappointed I was when I realized there were no carrots in this thread. I thought we were making little coaxial pneumatics ot of them...

Yes I like that too. It makes me feel special, like I actually accomplished something.
