I'm sorry, it's small, clean, simple, and it works. It's been the inspiration for a lot of my smaller cannons since this was posted last year.

Has this thread come to a halt already?!?!

This is more or less my favorite:

I like all of NeoSpuds creations but this meant a great step forward for all of us.
It's mentioned in almost a 1000 posts so I think a lot of you agree with me.
So far I've seen a lot of cool cannons so keep them coming.
They will be an inspiration to newbies and spudveterans alike!

BlackH, I need a second on this. It's a nice cannon, very well constructed. Any body that seconds this post below and I'll join it in this post.

There was a 40 ft cannon I remember seeing a while ago that I thought was brilliant, but I cant seem to find it. :?

My vote:

Full view

I'm surprised nobody mentioned HEAL yet.


XxtriviumxX: I think you're probably talking about the BGP. Or maybe schmanman's SWAT gun, but I think it only has a 20ft barrel.


EDIT: Who the hell made this thing!?
I probably would have nominated it if I could find the damn post.

@Fnord: Yay, a nomination!!!

IIRC, the other cannon in your post is known as the Locutus.... well, more accurately the PG255 Locutus, I find now that I've looked... and it seems to be found at either of these two:
http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/topic-t203.html
http://www.vochraye.com/spud/launchers_loc.html

It's nicely built, but it is missing the all-important propane metering system.

-----

Now, if anyone will second it, I'd like to nominate Larda's 28.8 kJ ETG in addition to my earlier choice:
http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/topic-t13449.html

The amount of power that has been achieved from such a short and narrow barrel is insane.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

Hey thanks!

I should post a picture of it with the steel pipe clamps instead of that ghetto ass rope.

I'm working on two more currently. These will feature the same 2" valves but with 3/8" QEV piloting and breech loading!

I would have to say my favorite gun is the Americannon.

Woah thanks _Fnord for bringing the SWAT gun to my attention :D

http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/new-s-w ... t7093.html
I´ll second The Swat cannon.It´s one of my favorites.Whenever I show/off this site to friends , I always include SWAT in the tour, so they know I´m not the only crazy guy in this hobby..

You gotta love it!

I would have to say...

<div align="center">SCTBDCv1.5</div>

Simply for it's integration of the triggered burst disk into the "main stream", sort of. Only one other cannon that I remember before this one that used the concept, and it was on SpudTech.

I quote --

"jrrdw asked me in PM how many cannons one member can nominate.

this was my answer:
Quote:
It would be better to leave it at one I think..

But that would leave some beatiful cannons out, wich deserve to be in.

Let's do it like this: You can nominate a second one, but you will have to ask someone to second your entry.
When another seconds it, it;s accepted..

hope you get that.. "
