And a dremel.

I don't know if I can work with metal. I don't have the tools. Now you know what to ask for at Christmas, birthdays so on so forth... :bigsmurf: Right. Hmmm. Say what would I need to be able to more or less do anything? There is not much room in my house, and money is tightish.... Good Drill? Clamp...

and it must last at least a clip of ammo for CO2 to work. :D It'll fire around 100 bb's in those 2 seconds....provided the bb reservoir holds that much. A cloud or vortex bbmg is an open system. I used metal for the body and barrel...as CO2 is escaping continously, along with the bb's pressure will...

So I had this idea a year ago. When I was younger, I bought a rocket fishing rod. It broke the second I opened it. So I got a regular rod and decided I liked fishing occasionally. But I am no master caster. So then I figured, why not just build a air cannon to launch your line out to the bloody midd...

@Ianbuckwell: hahaha. That's awesome. Smile on a kid's face? Well, I must still rate as a kid, then. XD @Hunter62610: I could and actually thought about it. However, the barrel size is a little odd, meaning most commonly available spheres are either slightly too large or small enough that they let ...

Sounds like it won't work out safely. Is there any way to get a controlled release with less power? Like.... can I hack a regulator into it? Or if I had a proper system but the inlet in the chamber was really tiny... I may have to stray away from CO2. I want this to be 350 FPS, though I could work w...

I might be wrong due to being a little new, but could you nol load a light foam ball as the last thing in the barrel? Then it shoots bbs and a large caliber rounds. I don't know what the velocity of the ball is, and safety is a concern, but I could conceive of a anti vehicle weapon.

Check Night Hawk in Lights Coaxial aircannon. Might help.

Intresting.

If I directly use a tire inflator with a 12 G CO2 cartridge, could I get through say.... 30 s of firing? Even 15?
That is given a proper design.

Also, what is the easiest. ... or at least best for what I have. ... material to make a Vortex Block out of?

I would love to make a Airsoft rifle. However I don't have a shop. Or really any tools, beyond a small drill. My skills are limited, and being 17... I haz no monez.(I wa to keep costs down, but I can afford what is necessary.) What I do have in good supply is ambition, and at least 10 hours of rease...
