I would say that I wouldn't even dignify that with a response, but here I am. Bah, I fail.

You've gone off the deep end, man. Just step away from the computer, and try to build a air cannon you can strike the US with or something.

You may have started the thread, but it's definitely not yours. Although hijacking your own thread to further your anti-scott hatemongering is pretty humorous. :)

I agree JSR, i agree. :)

BTW blitz, i got banned under the name of "Scotty" for mentioning that my Hybrid used butane for fuel, Spanerman had a post count of around 800 and i had a post count of around 3, happy days. I'll give you a cookie if you can find the thread asswipe.

I apologize, but I don't know how to search for posts -- n00bish nature and all, ya know? Why do you want me to find that?

And what's with the name calling man?

I am truly sorry for the asswipe bit, i have been through a bit lately.

As for the searching you bloody noob, learn how to do it otherwise the majority here will come down on you- take that from experience. :wink:

It's cool, I appreciate it.

I'm not *really* a n00b, I just haven't been posting much as you'd see from my join date and posting. That aside, I did find some posts of you and spanerman in seperate threads mentioning butane in each of your hybrids (nice, BTW), but nothing of much significance to banning.

In the world of spuds today, micro combustions are all the rage, They keep getting smaller and smaller. Meanwhile my thread on smallest over-under gets hijacked to talk about penis size. Go see under my signature.

For those of you who actually still read this thread, I'll give you a teaser.

It's all you'll be getting for a while :P

I'll make the 3d model available for download once I post the updated version (2.1). It's identical to the actual gun down to very small tolerances.<br /><br />This was made in anim8or.

Damn SS, its been a long time since you last posted here...

In the world of spuds today, I got pissed off about the leak on my nitrogen reg's output, and coated the whole thing in about 1/2" of epoxy paste :P Time will tell whether it worked or not. It starts leaking when the output side reaches 300psi, and is a very pronounced hiss at the SCTBDC's normal operating pressure of 450. Normally I wouldn't care, but I only get 15 full power shots out of a tank, and at $4 a shot, I can't afford to waste any on leaks.

I repaired one of my range-shooting rounds for another try tomorrow, attached another 10" of chamber to the SCTBDC (grand total of 68" and ~230 ci now), and made some more 48 layer disks.

Also, at school I mathematically proved that a 2 dimensional shape (sexdecagon?) drawn completely inside a circle actually had more area than the circle it was drawn inside. The math teacher (P.h.d.)and several others were completely confounded, and the general consensus was that I had broken the universe. :roll:

Haha in my maths class i've been reading Andy McNab books since the start of the year and I pulled off an excellence* in my first internal** and my friend is pissed off because he's actually been trying and he only got merit. And he's probably smarter then me :D

*excellence is like an A+ I guess, I got everything right :)

The unfortunate and rather scary thing is, what I was doing wasn't a trick; I didn't expect it myself. This wasn't some piddly little difference either - slightly over 8 full units above what it could be within the rules of Euclidean geometry.

Maxus, the reason for the question mark was that I was guessing at the name. The shape had 16 sides. Anyone know the proper name of that?
