Mods please remove this, thanks.

will.

I am still not sure about the dimensions of the chamber and barrel, and also how the piston system works, but i just made an attempt to try it out.

before you start build a canon you should know how all this thing work
you can search the forum how to , to get some idea

here you can see how the piston valve works

and here you can see how to build one

I went there before, but im not sure if my piston would work. If the air that comes in seals the barrel and fills the chamber, and the piston gets pushed back when the pressure is released, will it work?

Check my diagram and see whether its right, thanks.

[cannon monkey]

it should just go for it if u can make it so u can take the piston out if anything goes wrong

[frozebyte]

i made the piston and fitted the parts together already, could i have a tip on whats the best way to use a normal bicycle pump to fit into the nipple?

comments on the barrel/chamber?

Thanks.

I build this adapter for one of my guns and it works great.
This way you can use a bike pump or a compressor.

[frozebyte]

Thanks for the tip! sorry for the trouble but may i know what is that adapter made of? especially how you got the bicycle valve thing connected to the fittings.

[MRR]

It's a quick connector to 1/2" male. I drilled a hole into the 1/2" end cap and put the shrader trough it. The base of the shrader is rubber so that the pressure push against it and seals.

[frozebyte]

Oh so no permanent fixing of the shrader is required, thanks!
I've seen your how-to on the piston valve for copper fittings, and wondered if you would have comments on the different piston that i use?

could i pm you to discuss some things? or use msn?

[MRR]

pm is ok for me.

[frozebyte]

thanks MRR, hope its fine with you to be asking lots of noob questions, its fine if you don't want to answer them, just inform me. I need lots of tips on barrel & chamber and piston valve.

Thanks!
