300 psi in pvc? really? Please someone tell me if I am missing something here because that seems like just a bit of a bad idea to me,

Apart from that, Freaking sweet! looks like a fantastic little piece of craftsmanship you got there my friend! reminds me of the Beeman P1 Image

Make a Marble one. You will not Be dissapointed. Its the ultimate in large Caliber Spudgun fun. The kick is really all the fun.

speaking of which, What do you use to hold the BB in the back of the barrel?

A marble one might cause for a bigger pistol shell :( maybe a 1/4 ball bearing one.. :)

Remember that the ability to hold pressure goes way up as the diameter of the pipe shrinks. I would wager that 300 psi in this cannon is much more safe than 100 psi in a cannon with 6 inch pipe.
I like to play blackjack. I'm not addicted to gambling, I'm addicted to sitting in a semi-circle.

You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

Very nice clean design, I think it has a really cool futuristic vibe to it.

Not to be a stickler, and I'm not sure why anyone didn't mention this, but... did you check with the mods about the flameshooting video, to make sure it's kosher? I don't wanna be a pain, just thought I'd ask.
