Welcome to Spudfiles!

Always good to have another Kiwi on (the) board. :P

Brings me back to the time where I was making my first combustion, do you have exams as well at the moment? You should finish it during the holidays then. I made my first combustion 2years ago around this time.

That QEV looks like an exact clone of the ones we get in the UK, which are rated to 10 bar (145 psi), but are still usable and safe way past that.

Nice launcher, although it would look better without the bright blue putty and tape. Performance seems great though.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Hmm, only 145, I take it up to 180 every time. Yeah I had to improvise with this one, anyway, its gone now in favour of a better rendition which is floating around somewhere.
