Which is what? :p Googled it, but how do you keep the air inside then? doesnt it need to be a one way valve? or do you mean to use those on the car tire valve?

I tried to make a quick idea in paint for a small gun, would this work?
The nipple is for one of those small air hoses, so i can connect it at school to fill it. How big does the tank thing need to be? And what do i need to make it so it can hold 100psi?

Is it any tutorials for this? :p

Well, it doesnt have to be a super advanced thing, just something to have fun with on school :P I dont know much about this, maybe you(or someone else) can just come with some suggestions which is not too expensive. If it is any tutorials that would be great :P

Need help with finding a cheap cannon to make

Hello there, im new to this, and me and some friends want to make a air cannon. Nothing too fancy, just something cheap. We got 100psi at school that we can use for anything so that would be our power. Any suggestions on what we could make?
