This is one of my favorites, just for the sheer joy of doing something different I came up with the KingPin.

It's built around a home made diaphragm and utilizes a normal sprinkler solenoid to actuate it. I went with a sprinkler solenoid because the KingPin was designed to be trip wire activated.

The vent tube was way too small, it fired with an insanely loud honk! We must have laughed about that for a good half hour.

KingPin was retired after the solenoid holder cracked under the pressure. Here's some previously unreleased photos of it's construction.

Hmm nice implication of the solenoid, but a ball valve would out perform it
