I don't sell pumps, but if you want decent performance from a launcher this size you're going to need well over 100 psi.

Seriously, I don't know how I could possibly explain it any simpler - and this is a much easier technique than my usual epoxy construction, because the parts are practically push-fit and just need the adhesive to hold them together, there's no complex casting involved.

Due to the amount of interest and popular demand, a how-to of this project should follow shortly - watch this space.

<newsreport>And all over the world, students are being shot mysteriously, but non-fatalally in classrooms. No-one has any idea how it's happening, and no cause can be found.

On a completely unrelated matter, there are also an increasing number of copper pens arriving in classrooms.</newsreport>

While I'm at this - It's just something weird I noticed (almost instantly I'm afraid to say, although I didn't mention it at first), but why exactly is your new animated avatar using their rifle left-handed?

Re: the avatar, I noticed this as well but hoped that there wouldn't be many fellow pedants on this forum - wishful thinking it seems :wink: - ah well, don't blame me, blame the creators of Metal Slug
