this is my first attempt at any sort of cannon, it has a 1/4" qev piloted by blowgun and filled through schrader to hydraulic pipe, the body is MDF but not quite finished yet, it has a real trigger from a .357 magnum and the barrel is 1/2". it shoots nails with paper cones epoxied onto them, and can go up to 3000psi with the tank i have (although i have only taken it to 500psi. pics

One hint, try spacing the links a bit by pressing enter so it jumps it down a line and doesn't make the screen super wide.


Other than the pictures being spread like that its not bad. I like it.

I think the body/stock could use a bit of work but apart from that good.

Damage Pics!

Damage pics soon! its raining and the body isnt finished im Going to cover over the screws with mdf and epoxy and then im going to attach the stock and then panel pin the mdf that covers the insides of it to the top bottom and front and then give it a matt black finish with a cool name on it or sum't

Nice effort, especially the trigger, but...

yes,,, at least im wearing socks

cool cannon dude!! strange looking, but cool!! good effort for a first!! congrats!! also nice foot shot, jsr has a foot fetish as you can see!!

thanks for the comments and i found a way to cut mdf easily without a hand saw if you put a thin abrasive cutting disc for an angle grinder onto a hole saw and attach it to a power drill it cuts quite nicely and leaves a smooth edge,

wow i didn't know jsr's feetaphobia was so serious awesome cannon... ten times better than my first... then again i made mine when i was 10 y/o
