what is the deal that you stuck on the end of the barrel before loading it? and what do you use for fuel?

That thing on the end was a sabot. Since he has the badass muzzle on the end, he uses the sabot to cut the round. As far as the fuel, his original post said he uses propane.

That 200 meter+ shot was great! I hope my first combustion turns out that good. I like things that go BOOM! BANG! KAPOW! Echo's across the fields. Nice!!!
Do you plan on building anymore cannons?

thanks... I am brazilian but i live in japan....
i thought firearms were illegal in japan, or are spud guns not considered firearms over there

The only type of firearm which a Japanese citizen may even contemplate acquiring is a shotgun.[5] Sportsmen are permitted to possess shotguns for hunting and for skeet and trap (p.27)shooting, but only after submitting to a lengthy licensing procedure.[6] Without a license, a person may not even hold a gun in his or her hands.
