I came across this today, http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/auto-22 ... rt,30.html (8th post down), and I decided to build my own. It has a 7" long chamber, 3/4" ID. And uses a regular safety pop off valve. I am waiting for the 60 minute epoxy to cure, and when its done I shall drill then tap the hole for the air inlet, and then screw in the pop off. I hope it works, and all I need it to do right now is just pop off. I will try and post a video if it works.

And it works, I tried it on a small scale with a blow gun and a fire extinguisher while waiting for the epoxy to cure (which it still is), and it makes a burrrup type sound! I love it! Now I just need a valve that pops at 25 psi or something just for fun.

I will try. Just give me a few, and hopefully photobucket will work.

Edit, took pictures of pretty much my entire collection of cannons. I hope you guys like em. I will post them in their corresponding threads.
