You advise me to do a resume, or any details
If you're asking about hackaday... I don't know - it would be best to ask MrCrowley

If they think it's interesting to show (which they will I am sure) they'll contact you and ask for some pics, specs and a video

If you make another video with the arduino, but this time showing the valve firing as you trigger it on the arduino, I'm sure they will post that to their website. They love that kind of stuff :D

Malheureusement cela devra attendre pour une nouvelle vidéo...

Le montage sur breadboard est démonté au vue que je vais faire l'intégration de l'électronique et de la plomberie dans la carcasse en bois.

Un montage avec des deux bredboards (arduino uno + Lcd) et une vue sur le distributeur + quick exhaust valve + piston chargeur serrai mieux pour Hackday ?

Fail ... I copied the wrong text.

Unfortunately this will have to wait for a new video ...

Mounting on breadboard is removed in order that I will make the integration of electronics and plumbing in the wooden frame.

Fitting with two bredboards (arduino uno + Lcd) and a view of the valve + quick exhaust valve + piston charger pressed for better hackday?

I did a test yesterday with a gun Ø6×8mm 1000mm long.
FYI, in the end it will only do 700mm.

With 0.20gr, top 2bar, 4bar to just below!

I sent an email (Hack A Day) ;).

But seriously, very nice work. I wish I had bread board skills like that!

@pneumaticcannons : Thank you very much: D.

J'ai fait quelques test aujourd'hui, à 7bars avec de la 0.2gr, je transperce un morceau de contre plaqué de 5mm d'épais !

Here are some videos:

It moves a lot because it is fixed at the compressor by a quick coupling.
But this is just a test of power here, no details!

Everything is semi-automatic.
