Oh, thats really cool, because its so nice and small, but goes (comparatively) high. How much did the cannon cost you in total?

looks like you can afford to saw off another inch and a half, now that you're at it :wink:

Yeah, you could probably cut off pipe to below that hook piece.
Has your performance increased much from cutting it off?

I'd add 3/4" OD aluminum hydraulic tubing onto the top end of that list. ID of exactly .68" - you don't get a better fit than that.

And on more time differences, it was 14.36 PM here in the UK.

And it's currently 21:44 PM...

yeah, i remove all the parts of most of my blowguns below the valve part, it increases flow like you wouldnt beleive. in one of mine the hole was too small to fit an airsoft bb!.....
