you would only get about 2-3 of the balls to shoot out of the barrel per shot(i say this because with sprinkler mods ya cant get dbl trigger pushes YOU HAVE TO SHOOT ONCE THEN FILL AND THEN REPEAT) hardly a final solution thatnks anyways, you are better off designing a spring powered piston valve.

No offence but let they guy work it out for himself if he doesent care about your opinion (he is probably just leting his imagination take over.). Failure is necessary for building character but we will know if he fails because he will be on the news :( .

Depends on your barrel or wherever the disk is going to go diameter. Pressures are aswell a factor, low pressure paper then alluminium foil and then my favorite for hybrids alluminium can.

Today after reading this topic i modified it and put a locking system so that letting too much pressure get through wasent a problem. I attached a snorkel mouthpeice to it and put a longer hose. I straped i...

If you just want to mess around i have an idea for you. Once i was in the beach with one of my fire extinguisher guns, well i had the bright idea to return it to a regular fire extinguisher for a day, i felled it up to 150 or so and but some weighs on, the thing is that you have to push the lever ev...
