Spud Destruction Season 2 Premiere
You told us more power, we built a cannon with more power.. We built a gun with the help of all the ones i spoke with earlier on this forum, that is 2-3 times as strong. How do you say MOAR POWAHHHH. 8) Thank you guys for all the advice. there will be videos detailing the cannon when the season begins, and all of those who helped i will give a shout out to. We couldn't of built it properly without this website. If you want to check out the vid here's the link..

Don't worry this video is not monetised so i won't be making .002 cents per click hahahah.. we do it for the love of destroying and my love for filming. enjoy guys. Also any suggestions on things to destroy is appreciated. We have a list already but theres always room for more...

Thanks Again for all of your help.

Awesome.

My only complaint is that you misspelled "MOAR POWAH!", but it's a minor gripe ;)

2 Questions. Whats the life of a air pressured barrel. I'm assuming the pressurising and releasing constantly can put a strain on the pvc. Also the pvc is rated to 260psi. What is a safe and good all around pressure. Some of our shots where at 120. Haven't gone any higher yet.

You'll build another cannon and forget this one long before the barrel becomes a liability, as long as you don't leave it in direct sunlight for an entire summer, or forget it in the freezer and then repeatedly strike it with a sledgehammer :)

How about some pics of the cannon? We might see something to tweak you might have missed ;)
