you reminded me Max
it is 8" of solid wood, about half the thicknes is gone since it tore the back off, the grooves in the ground if REALLY deep and are from one buckshot and the other is the slug that went through the wood.

ITWOST I started working on a paintball launcher that looks like a Barrett .50 cal.

Two questions..potatoflinger wrote:ITWOST I started working on a paintball launcher that looks like a Barrett .50 cal.
1) High Pressure?
2) How long till completion?
3) Do you have a camera?

ITWOST, I realised exactly what 60kJ of recoil force will do to a poorly constructed stand, and that the sparkplugs I'm using weren't designed to survive 3000psi...
I also learned that 10 year old bags of concrete mix apparently don't make very good concrete

It will have a steel chamber, so I may take it to 300 PSI.
I am saving my money for a truck, so it may take a while (a month probably)
Yes, I do have a camera.

Ahh good, I just love anything that looks like a .50cal rifle.

Okay, slight problem there. Recoil force of ~600JSpudblaster15 wrote: :banghead:

Mind you people talking about the power of a rifle/whatever in Joules is also inaccurate.
Oh well, can't have everything.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Anyone know where I can get a 250mm piece of 90mm Delrin rod?
Uk only really.
Edit: Never mind, seems it's also known as Acetal.

Once again, I'll rephrase it to appease the resident pedant(s):Joules are still energy, not force! Razz

The entire 100kg assembly recoiled at a speed of roughly 3.5m/s on firing, giving it a kinetic energy of ~600J, about 1/100th of what was imparted on the projectiles.
Also, how is using Joules when talking about the kinetic energy of the projectile fired from a rifle inaccurate? What unit of energy would you use?
