Double barrel design

Hey i was wondering what people thought of this design. Its a combustion cannon and it shoots 2 spuds at the same time. What do you think about it?
It sits on a platform that is angled at 45 degrees but the pic doesnt show it. This is just a layout for the gun.

It will be propelled by either hairspray or right guard.

Hey does anyone know how to hook up the hairspray bottle so it shoots directly into the chamber and is mounted on the outside?

thanx

i dont think you'd get much power from it, i would just build a normal cannon, with a detatchable double barrel

A detachable double barrel? Fill me in.

Tees and Wyes in a spudgun generally provide less power when used as a cumbustion chamber (hehe, i said cum). You'd be better off having a peice of pipe for a combustion chamber that's attached to the tee.

If i did that then wouldnt i need some sort of valve? Or sumthing? Or would the whole thing be one big chamber?

a cumbustion never needs a valve unless its a union or on a propane meter

I would say it useless having only one chamber and two barrels only if you had two seperate chamber. You could actulay do it if it was a pneumatic. Drac you sick.

ok, a detatchable barrel is a barrel that has either a male or female adapter on it (outside threads or inside threads) while your chamber has the adapter opposite of your barrel, that way you can screw different barrels onto the same chamber
