if your talking about the "back bast vents" pieces that were used on my AT-4 they are called flanges. i think there used to hook toilets into the drainage system they are like $6 and there found with all the other plumbing stuff at homedepot. the main reason i used them instead of any other piece was so i could claim it was a "pneumatic clog eliminator" if the cops were to show up.. which has happened on a few a occasions... they stole my dam propane tanks!

Counterstriker, I cant see your picture for some reason. Can you please put it up here, without a link, so I can see it? Thanks in advance

I can imagine, did it turn to dust on impact or shatter?
EDIT: now your picture works for me.

Knowing myself it will be about 1 month till I am done. I gotta save some cash. I am hoping to only spend about like 40$-60$. And yeti I should get more pictures up soon but I am not on the computer that the picture is saved on.

On the modded sprinkler valves is there a limit on how long the tubling can be?
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 7:29 pm
by singularity
well the longer the tubbing the bigger the pilot volume is meaning the slower the valve will open... but i have seen one with about 3 ft of tubing that still worked (using a normal blow gun)

Yeah, I would have the tubing as short as possible, because as singularity said, it decreases performance.

Why did they take your propane?

By "Bazooka" Do you mean modern style rocket launcher or WW2/Korea style actual "Bazooka"
If you mean a WW2 style one i'd just use a combustion inside a larger PVC Pipe and use wood boards to act like the shields etc on the old bazooka.
Sorry if i sound completely off the current discussion

becuase i live in a small town with a bunch of whinny rich people so the cops have nothing better to do than bug the crap out of kids like me.... so i built an underground bunker to stash most of the bigger guns....

I feel your pain, and nice one on the stash! Isnt it illegal to just take something from someone else that isnt illegal... wait, its called
stealing!
