Boom! The classic potato gun harnesses the combustion of flammable vapor.

I meant do you make your own shels for your mortar rack?

What kind of hairspray works best? I tried some of my mom's but it just gunked up my igniter, so i'm stuck using axe. :?

Hairspray will always gunk up you guns, just don't do it!!

Thanks for the compliment.

I do not make my own shells no, I usually buy excaliber shells to load the rack with!

dangerous design, the leads for the spark breach mid chamber and compromise the structure of your chamber, a tough to launch load can split your chamber in two, any screws should pass through the couplings to maximize thickness on the faults, love the trigger setup though, very nice using the wood to form the mounts, 4 out of 5

A very nice adaption for the igniter most people who try to mount one do a poor job and it ends up looking terrible but nice placement and a great simple cannon.
