I have been very busy building cannons for schools lately. I have just finished a confetti lancher aswell.

The firt gun in the photo is my 4" co-axail gun pioloted by a one inch sprinkler valve (hevily modified)

The second is my latest and greatest. Its al 2.5 pvc with a standard one inch sprinkler valve that is fired by two 9v in the paintball gun handle.
It has a beer keg regulator inside of the chainber. I just fired it accidentilly at 180 psi (I installed a gauge to prevent that from happening again :oops: )It kicked so hard that it nearly got knocked out of my hands.

The third gun is a confetti launcher that has a custon machined piston that is acuated by a Hevily modified one inch sprinkler valve. The accuall gun can be removed from the stand for storage. The gun is missing the three way top for the streamers in the photo. It is also remotly fired. (They use it at every touchdown)

I may be a good cannon builder and engineer, but my bisnus skills suck!
(^spelling to) :D

The school got off with $200 for the two t shirt launchers and another $200 for the confetti gun. Ive probobly got over $600 into them altogether. Oh well, it was fun.

I have many new orders to fill from fellow students because of the free advertising (they said my name at the football games 8) ) Im selling just the one that has the painball grip for $120, which will do just more than cover my cost.
