Wood small gun

[tghhs]

I had a day off today because my school was having a report writing day, anyhow i was bored and after being on spudfiles recently and i had a attack of got spud fever and just had to make something so this is the result

i wish i had some specs on it but i guess i was just building it off cuff so i dont know the size of every thing but i can tell you the pilot is 3/4 inch ball (obvious) the chamber has a ID of 1 inch (it was the biggest bore i could do) the barral is 1/4 copper tube duno how long (i didn't measure)

atm moment i'm having problems with the piston sealing but hope fully will soon be fixed

what do u guys think? ideas on 1 inch pistons would be good too

So... it's a wooden pneumatic?

I think you just one-upped Eddbot. Good job!

As for the 1" piston, I would build it with threaded rod and washers.

yep pretty much, all i had lying around and yeah i'll try that piston ides thx

I hope you realize this means war...

I want to see who'll make a wooden railgun. That would be a feat and two halves.

I suppose if we could get a tree to feed off of iron rich soil, it may absorb slight magnetic properties.

It could happpen... in my dreams!

That's one hefty pilot ball valve you have there...

Love the wood usage...still a little too neat to compare to Edd's infamous ghetto wooden combustion.

Sweet thanks guys, and yeah ur right about the pilot but all i had. A wood rail gun would be cool and impossible.

mm maby i need to blow torch it a bit to 'ghetto it up'
