No it was just for size referencing the ignition coil I have. I tried my prison which broke, and I tried steel wool which was a horrible failure.

Sound levels

So I just finished my 2" mortar, and I wanted to do some testing on it before i brought it to my field. Only problem is i have no clue on how loud this things going to be. Its all 2" pvc roughly 40" in lenght. I did some searching with no answers. Is it louder then say, a lawn mower or leaf blower?

I just plan on making it ridable for now. I plan on enlisting so I won't have time to put much more into it, but when I come back I plan on making my own tank and other parts. I also don't have the required tools yet, and there's no sense in having them sit there for 4 years rusting away from parent...
