Well my first first attempt at a piston pneumatic had an EPIC FAIL...so I chopped it in half and made it into a super small combustion. the barrel is inside the chamber so it makes the chamber really small.

inside of the chamber. its only 1 1/2 inch with a 3/4 inch barrel so it don't leave much combustion room. it works though. =]

I used a lawn mower spark plug instead of a spark strip. its simpler

well there's two parts to the spark plug...the top part has a small pin down the middle of the bottom and the bigger metal part goes to the little arm on the side. I just connected the wires to the two spots.
