Very nice gun. How does the trigger mechanism work? In the video, It looks like an electronic switch instead of a trigger.

I agree, from your explanation, it doesn't seem to hard to build

I have been doing some studying into the toolies valve, but it doesnt seem to be a very common valve. Is it hard to get it working? Is there any clear cut plans on building a 2" toolie valve? I tried using the search function on here, but seem to be pulling up a lot of other topics that have nothing...

I apologise in advanced if I have missed something here, but you can't constrain a coaxial to 2 inches in diameter and still fire 2" diameter projectiles :? I didn't draw up the entire plan of the bazooka, so i apologize for that. What i planned on doing to get it to fire 2" projectiles is bump the...

Coax design sketch up

I looked around to see if anyone has made a coax of this size, and haven't really found anyone making anything like this one. I know its not much different than any other coaxial, but I do use some different parts and have a couple specific goals I'm trying to achieve. Here is the design i'm thinkin...

That piston looks great! do you know around how much that piston cost you in resin material?

I just finished my solenoid canon, but i'm headed off to Lowe's today to pick up some more parts for a piston cannon.

For some of you more experienced members... I understand the importance of having a light weight piston especially with a design like this, But what is the likely hood of the cannon accidentally firing if it was ever to be dropped on its rear end on some solid surface, ie concrete. Would the piston ...

I wonder if picking up a sheet of plastic cutting board from wal-mart will work. It's about a half inch thick, very easy to cut, and is very strong. I'm sure you could make about 20-25 pistons from it. I've used it before for my slide gloves for longboarding, and when i think about it, it should wor...

Bummer about the leaky glue joint. I once was able to fix a leaky joint on a cannon by using some 5 minute epoxy and globbing it around the leak. As long as the hole is small enough, it should be able to hold the pressure ok. Especially if your only using it for airsoft, you won't be pumping in anyt...

You might be able to get away with using a power drill that you clamp into a vise. Just make sure you dont clamp it too tight, and dont clamp it around the main motor of the drill, clamp it around the hand grip or something and find whatever you can to wedge it into place so it doesn't move on you. ...
