Hey guys. This is my version of the landmine that colty-bear made. Thanks goes to him for sending me the plans very early this morning. I quickly modified them and went to get the parts (also this morning). I just took this vid and sent it to youtube. It's an all around view of it. The only real difference between mine and his is that the whole top half of mine is the pressure plate instead of how just the cap (3/4" i think) on his is the plate. The insides are mostly the same. I will hopefully have a vid of it in action in the next week. I'm also gonna clean it up some and paint it to look like dirt.
Here is a link to his: http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/my-new- ... 18671.html

Here is the vid:
Watch the first 5 seconds a couple times so you can see the motion it makes when you step on it.

PS: On colty-bear's topic he has a poll. The second selection says "It sucks give me 2 days and I'll have one better". I haven't choosen one yet but i might have to choose that one!!! :D :o :D :o

Edit: Test fire with water!!! :D

looks good.

I'm guessing that it works by the person stepping on it and driving the co2 cartridge into the nail thus releasing the air pressure and launching the paint/flour/etc?
