long story short... i went to a friends house and he DESPRITLY wanted to build a cannnon so all i could find was a section of 90 mil sch 80, oh well id have to make do, so i made this combustion, the end is duct taped up, for ignition i drilled a hole in the pipe, to fire, i stick a tennis ball down the barrel, spray in some lynx, and stick a lit mach into the hole.

Why is that a waste, he can still use the pipe for something else later. Nice and simple, good job.

i would buy some screws and a bbq ignitor, because hot gas coming out of a hole into your hand would hurt
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08

It's good to use a spray fuel in these type cannon's/morter's. Lighter fluid lauves a flaming ball from, real fire hazerd for drought area! Good quick thinking, for what your friend had laying around, made him happy, (Mc Giver)!! Or should we make you honorary leader of The B Team. lol CUDOS

I took my end cap off by big ABS cannon to see if it was sparking... I kept my face away and I told by friend to stand far behind it, then I twisted my lantern igniter and WWHVOOOM, good-bye arm hair :D

It didn't hurt much, it hurnt the hair and my skin got red and a little peeled, I could've been sun burnt for all I know... :D

Macyver fixes everything with paperclips... lol :lol: We should weave a gun out of paperclips.
