As far as I can remember, he cemented his piston inside.

Well good luck putting it back together when moronic overuse at the meet breaks the piston...

Ah yes, every texan has two tools, some wd-40 and some duct tape. If it's stuck and it's not supposed to be, wd-40 it. If it's not stuck and its supposed to be, duct tape it. (I know I heard that somewhere...)

I'm bringing duct tape to the meet, we can tape up modder and leave him there for the buzzards.

HAHAHAHA!!! Oh i have many many rolls of duct tape, some camo tape, some classic silver, some red,blue,green, hunter orange, and some white, some black, and I also have a 55 gallon drum of WD-40, and i think that part of your post was a quote from blue collar comedy tour.

55 gallons!? You could grease a pig and stuff it in a mailbox. You know what else they say "With a big enough hammer and enough WD-40, you can fit anything anywhere"

Sadly, I was kidding about the 55 gallon drum.

I always heard it, every redneck has three tools: duct tape, WD-40, and a hammer. If it moves and it ain't sposed to, duct tape. If it don't move and it is sposed to, WD-40. If it still don't move, hit it with the hammer, then squirt it again.

Oh yea, and I like the cannon. So you piloted it with your thu8mb? That is redneck man.

Awesome man, you should test it to see just how high you can get the pressure before it's too much to use your thumb for.

Bwahahahahaha. Hey! I just got a brilliant idea. I wonder if it would be possible to pilot one with a pop-off valve. It would always blow at the same pressure. Hmm, I'll have to investigate this...
