this cannon was a project I started after i saw a similer one on this site. it took a day to build and I was shooting it within a half hour of drying time. I took it up to 200 psi with and old broken compressor and it shot a AA over three streets and out of site. the parts are as follows 7" x 1.5" sch 40 pvc eand cap and 1.5x1.5x1" tee connecter 1.5 to 1/2" reducer bushing 1/2 " treaded adapter 1/2" ball valve 1/2 " treaded adapter two 1/2" elbows 1/2" x 27" sch 40 barrel and a automotive schrader valve that i got for free at goodyear. i had a presure guage but I took it off to put on something else and plugged the hole with four layers of duct tape and a hose clamp preaty ghetto I know but it holds the full 200 psi. I shoot mostly carrige bolts and screwdrivers but the best is aa's and those jewelers screwdrives the are small and sharp. I found a old permanent marker under one bench that fit perfectly in the barrel after i shot it there was a black smuge and the biggest peice I could find was about a 1/2" long shard. feel free to copy this design Im going to a bout five times for my friends that want it.

I cuaght it later, but beer and guns dont always mix soo well, lol.

Same, I just did it while building a small cannon one day, drunken fun, but I dont do it anymore, seeing as how small guns dont amuse me as much.

"Ok make a beer bottle spud gun... You drink a beer and then shoot it." This was a quote from some other site that means that I'm not giving you ideas about vandalism and not breaking the rules.

Lol, Ive thought about that, not so much drinking while shooting, but shooting the bottles when sober. It'd be fun, even if they didnt shoot amazingly.
