Nice job, decent efficiencies too. Where did you get your capacitors?
Your chamber support looks a bit excessive to me. Is this just for sealing?

Im late here,but: Navy railgun's have a quite long rail life. A smaller 12MJ navy railgun I saw regularly fired 10+ shots in one set of rails, they used steel liners. I don't know technical specs, but the targets were 6 1" thick steel plates spaced about half a inch in a vacuum chamber. It would pie...

spring loaded punches are great. Don't have one? A clamp, a nail, and a hammer works too. make a dent, this way the drill bit doesn't slip. Clamp the pipe, and drill away. Or option two, Bore a block of wood with the pipe OD. Stick the pipe in, and drill through the wood and all. No matter how you d...

May not work with that high voltage, but it could still be better.

I was not very good with documentation :) I did indeed finish it, and had some projectiles made. I shot it primarily at steel. I couldn't do much due to my location and other issues, just an occasional shot. I do however think it was caused by your description of Larda's ETG, that would play nicely ...

Nice. I noticed you had some different capacitors. Information on them? I did not think an impact flash was a major thing, I had gotten a couple with the railgun (though that was 12kJ). Ile try to find the video (hard drive failed two times since then...) Looking forward to more progress. EDIT: Inst...
