Well, here's a hybrid. Its chamber is made from 4" sch80 pipe, sch40 fittings and a 2" sch 80 union with 2 liter bottle plastic burst disks. It uses my universal meter and wireless control box leading to one spark gap and a chamber fan. It currently uses a 5' long 1.5" barrel with a small 2" sch80 rienforcement.

Oh yeah, and that's the launher stand I made a while back after asking for some ideas on Spudtech. I don't think I used any of them though. :P It's VERY sturdy and functional.

And now instead of typing 5000 more words, I will post 5 pictures. Enjoy.

Lol, give yourself the Ghetto.... Mr. Weenie... :D

Nice hybrid, seriously it looks cool and I like your fancy boxes...

It's hard for me to type this, but I don't care, I lit a firecracker and threw it, but the little shitty black powder paper wick came out flew around a little, and the damn thing landed right between my big toe and the one right on it on my right foot.... I got 2nd degree burns supposebly because it blistered....

I wish people would stop needing a better signature!

nice! i like the stand and the way that your compressor and propane are mounted on there=]
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08

I go up to 3x. I don't want to push the limits on this one until I have built my good one.
