My first pneumatic blew up on me!

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

B:C ratio is Barel: chamber ratio. i have no idea what it should be since i have not been on here for so long, but i am thinking mabe 1:1. yours is about 1:20 haha, you could put a 15-20 foot Barrel on that thing, that is when you make a better chamber !
trying to decide on a new project, probably something small.

You could even try to fire 2 barrels with one chamber with such a insane ratio :D
