Nice, I bet you made that with your eyes closed. Bigger pics would have been nice.

Yeah, making this was a real breeze. It took me maybe an hour, but that's counting the time spent at the hardware store and hand-cutting the 4" pipe to be straight and so on.

(Click on the pictures. :wink: )

I have learned to like the simple combustion a lot more after usinmg this.

I'm still trying to get the right amount of starter fluid to use down. Hahah! :P

Nice, as always Gort. Im actually planning on using the fact that the ID of 4" sch 40 and the OD of 3" fittings on a cannon now that you have exploited such a convenence. Although you should of "counter-sunk" for the lack of a better word the cleanout adapter so when screwed in it would be flush with the outer pipe. Nice cannon!

I have trouble using Ether (for the dumb: starter fluid (not calling you dumb Gort))

I try fir about 1 second and it doesn't work at all (just catches my 340 ci. chamber on fire, instead of combustion, I take off the cleanout and there's a bondfire inside :D )


I like that handle a lot, it reminds me of my 4" ABS cannon for some reason...

Great gun, like Pimpman said, like always :arrow: :roll:

Dude I really love this gun! I got the amount of fuel down and this thing is a real blast with cam-locks!

yea, every now and then you just need to take a break from all the complicated designs and make a simple cannon.
