What can I do with this?

Cannons powered by pneumatic pressure (compressed gas) using a valve or other release.

Hi everyone!
I recently found a water boiler pressure safety valve and I was wondering what I could do with it. It doesn't seem like I could do much so I'm open to any ideas. I've been thinking about making a better hammer valve using the body of thing.[/img]http://c.shld.net/rpx/i/s/pi/mp2/3125/a ... eda4533edb[/img]π[/img][/youtube]

Not much, it's not even a pop-off type valve if I recall correctly. Not very useful as a hammer valve either, because it's the "wrong way round".

agree with jack its a pressure relief valve different setup from a standard air pop off valve seen those on hot water heaters and such :twisted:

Haha OK thanks everyone, I'm heading to the hardware store to make a hammer valve NOT out of this.

Thanks for the help!
