Sorry but I am already making a huge 20x hybrid. Maybe you could go for 25x mix?

how big are the chambers? the barrel?

cool, but how many psi is the chamber made to withstand? it must be steel, or some kind of tank, like an acetylene tank, right? or an oxygen tank.

wait, I can get a hold of one of those 5 foot tall acetylene tanks from my grandpa. he has one that is empty, that has been in his barn for ages (it's not corroded at all, I might add). yes, that will be my chamber. and I can still have a 25 foot long barrel. 25x mix, here I come!

Be more creative? me or you? I thought of using a oxygen cylinder without you saying anything, so I am not copying. I'll link two together in a swat-like configuration. HA! :lol: :wink:

so, how long is your barrel going to be? do you have the cylinder or anything?

that's it, I will build it THIS HOLIDAY BREAK. so within the next month or two, depending on how easy it is to find the needed parts.

Well I gots a start on you. The fueling device is 75% done.
And you don't have fueling theory figured out. (you don't use fuel meters for high mixes)

ok, I can catch up. I don't care if mine is finished second. you still haven't answered my question, how long will the barrel be? :? :|

I realised from the start that you would not use a fuel meter like on a propane combustion. I've been on this site a while, and I understand how a hybrid works.

I will figure it out. I mean , I just started planning this morning, for goodness sake. :)

i am hoping 15 feet. i know that will not be very efficient for the power the cannon will be packing.

ok, that's pretty cool. so, one of those valves is for the air, the other for propane, etc. I am not clueless, even if it may seem that way. I am just cyphering everything. this is a big project.

that chamber not abit big for that size barrel?

But I would make a 4" ported in a 6" tee hand held gun with a golfBALL BARREL.
If your getting chased off a police dog, try not to run through a tunnel then onto a small see-saw then through a ring of fire. They are trained for that!

I thought you said you liked small guns. :wink:

this project will be delayed to march (my birthday), because I am getting a tippmann 98 with a mask and stuff with my Christmas money. :twisted: :D

You should use the search button and we try not to use slang because its hard to read. You might want to make a bbmg.

Now back on topic. Dont get a tippman. Its just terrible. Get a kingman MR1. )DEMON( has one and Im getting one. You can very easily upgrade kingmans also.
