You might be a spudgunner if...

you take fans out of your PC to mix fuel.
you smile after hearing a loud bang.
you are using fire extinquishers for destruction instead of protection.
you like to "play" with marbles.
your mom tells you to clear the garden of all that plywood schrapnel.
youve got at least 3 neighbours threatened you to call the police.
you classify rubber sheet as "sealing face" and foam stuff as "bumper".
Till the day I'm dieing, I'll keep them spuddies flying, 'cause I can!

You know where to get the cheapest propane and don't own a grill and don't go camping.
You go to scrapyards looking for cannon parts or just as a regular shopping routine.
You sneak onto golf courses at night to salvage balls from the ponds but don't play golf or cater to those that do.

You might be a spudgunner if ...you know, from one glance, at a guy opening a ballvalve at a yardsale, what he is planning.


( it happened to me! I saw a guy opening a ballvalve, trying to make it go as fast as possible.So I asked him just one thing...spuds or marbles?
He was like...What? I asked him again...he said marbles and smiled as if caught with his pants down.. :D zi explained a piston valve to him and gave him the adress for spudfiles, but I've never heard from him again...He seemed happy as a 14 year old though :D )

You might be a spudder if.. you refer to spudguns to explain everyday situations...
"of course you feel sad boy...it's like when daddy can't get a full auto marblegun valve to work..just get up and try again.."

Your a spudgunner if You get sent to the office because you asked the janitor what the threads in the weird diaphragm valves were in the air conditioners. I'm still wondering.

Your parents ask whats this Mcmaster thing on my credit card... ouch

And a previus post reminded me of last week when visiting my grandma I spent more time checking out the Oxy tanks that talking with her. I mean Cmon rated to 3k PSI and with 1 inch NPT opening.

You make a post on nerf haven and noone else dare post

You try not to doubt your sanity as you explain the difference of Deflagration and detonation.

As for a 20X hybrid mix, ( the most powerfull to date, and done less than a week ago) the probability of detonation is probably 1 in less than 100
Woohoo, I'm famous :lol:

I just realised how wimpy the general population of NerfHaven is from that thread...

You might be a spudgunner if you even know what a "20X hybrid mix" is. And you're probably DYI if you've lit off a few of them this weekend, and aren't even nervous about them anymore :D

I was planning to, but it turns out to be very difficult to push my ghetto-modded 15psi oxygen reg much past 70psi on the output side. You'll just have to wait for higher mixes until I get my proper oxy/fuel gun running in the summer.

You might be a spud gunner if you have to explain what your saying half the time.

You might be a spud gunner if you get pissed if nobody has posted a new cannon since you last logged in.
