Is that bell reducer pressure rated?
You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

Just got back from shooting that sign, sounded like I hit it right in the middle from 40-50m but it was night and I had to bail cos this cleaning lady was getting suss, so I didn't see the damage but I'll go there tomoz with a camera. I didn't hear it bounce off so I'm hoping for a hole through the sign but doubt it (this metal looked thick as)

Just got back from going spudding...err golf balling with Watto!
the shots were done at 80psi and the first picture was a miss and it hit the ground then rebounded into the sign.
the second picture is on the full.
the shots were done from 25m or so
The metal was pretty thick, steel and was double layered so itl take more than 80psi to go through.

Aussie spudders unite!!
you've won this round sign...but we'll be back...with higher pressures and bigger, heavier projectiles...and carls LRP gun, with lead ammo...just you wait...
Notice the flash...the pics were done at 12am, I was tripping balls so carl drove with his newly aquired drivers licence...probably a good move
That was some strong fukn steel...
\/\/ IS FOR WATTO!

Nice vids
It may be just me but in the vids the silencer seems to have no noticable impact on the sound. Im probably wrong and its just my ears...
And you use a bike pump right?
If so how do you get the piston to seal because whenever I just pump into my 2in piston cannon the piston doesnt seal, it just leaks out of the barrel before any pressure can build up.
I have to use a secondary chamber to seal it which is quite annoying.

Trust me the silencer makes a huge difference, without the silencer it hurts your ears, with it on all you can hear is the golf ball cutting through the air.
The reason your piston doesnt seal with a bike pump is because it's too loose or doesnt have enough lube, If I blow into my blowgun I can seal the piston with just my breath, then when I stop blowing it pilots and can shoot tissues. Pistons that are only just big enough to cover the barrel, seal at low pressure very easily ive found, because there is so much more pressure pushing the piston from behind, as the barrel covers so much of the front of it.
