2" T Piston Valve

[evanmcorleytv]

Good, now please cut a groove into your piston, and install an O ring, so your performance can increase immensely!

I haven't a lathe a home. I'm happy enough when it works without o-rings. :p

All you need to do is put a ring of tape around the piston, and use it as a guide, then cut into it with a saw, and smooth out the groove with sand paper, then lube up the piston, and slide an O ring onto it.

I will have a look for finding o-rings here.

btw: I have lubed the piston before I placed him in the tee.

that would be better mrcrowley! also a bit safer in my opinion

I would hope that you lubed the piston before putting it in there...

Offcourse I lubed the piston! I've got a large can of (grease)lube.

Anyone getting a idea for the color scheme? Painting is not for directly, just need to tune it up.

love the door damage... and the "repair"

[silentkill12345]

red or bleu cammo would be cool, or with some yellow, i dont remember the name ;p or dip it in a large bath of plasti dip xD

The new glass is ordered and I can get it Monday.

I bought some darkblue hammerite and black.
Darkblue for the chamber and T, black for barrel.
I do not think I will use this cannon for destruction, just for recreational tennisball shooting. I think you want nothing more than to destroy objects. Right?

This afternoon a update!

[airpress]

Some progress. Since I started working this week again.
The vacation is over so I have less time to work on the cannon.

This morning I maked the supports for between the barrel and chamber. I painted them black, they are drying now.


This week I painted the entire cannon.
I like it pretty much.






I still need to mount the support between the barrel and chamber, but they are drying now.

I'm thinking about making something where I can place the cannon on. Some ideas anyone?

Can you even lift that thing?

It'll be a shame if you have to repair the piston and damage the paint job with a large pipe wrench

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

hehe that's the same colour scheme of some of our reactors at work

[mattyzip77]

Nice paint job and color scheme... I love it!!!!

It is indeed incredible heavy. When the moment comes when i have to repair the piston and damage the paintjob. I have some paint left.

nicly done! now make a video

[airpress]

Here a few pics with the spacer installed. I was first thinking to mount 2 of them. But it's enough with one.







This weekend videos of shooting!
