thank you for your help gentlemen. to jimmy, you kind of mis understood questions 1 and 3, question 1 was meat to be like if propane reaches X psi does it automatically combust like acetylne(sp?) does. and for question 3, the energy efficiency of a specific fuel measures how much heat is used in the...

i believe you may be right, but it would be a controlled and in most cases colored oxidation

I left my aluminum cannon outside on a gun table overnight and it was soaking wet from mist by the morning. It didn't rust and never will. The cannon did not explode into a violent mess of chaotic blood spilling goop. I am a scholar in wordiness. i dont wanna be that guy but in order to protect the...

aight so i haven't kept up much as of late but i am pretty sure the hunt for a reliable semi-auto combustion launcher is still on. i have an idea that i am looking to try and build. but before i go into full build mode i have some questions regarding propane. 1. does propane self combust if it reach...

well when i thought of it everybody said it wouldn't work, now here is proof that it does indeed work

yeah I'm just waiting on the cd to get here from that company and i will be able to start modeling right away. yes it will be free, you just need to give me a fairly clear description of what you want.

Does anyone know what the optimum ratio equation is for a vortex block?

eh, i haven't made any hybrids YET so he is fairly safe for now

yeah, but i can get vortex blocks made out of metal (1 point for me due to the reliability) I can get them down to extremely tight tolerances (1 point due to me for accuracy) I can make them in variable sizes and calibers (1 point due to me for variety and versatility) Thats 3 points to me over noth...

I plan on modeling just about everything i can

and if i could generate enough interest, I could get machined vortex blocks easy, hell even vortex caps made as one piece

LMAO, I can't use paint for shit!

I am pretty sweet with my cad though

hey man, it gives me something to do (I absolutely fucking love CAD) and it gets rid of a bunch of those shitty paint drawings that you hate.

I haven't seen an autocad demo but i didn't really look

Gippeto, you sir, are bad ass.

I just ordered the cd from them, lets see whats up when it gets here!!!

I am using AutoCad 2009 (I have tried inventor and such but autocad is easiest for me to use)

Alas no, I am actually in the military but I do have very easy access to CNC and such.

I was thinking of designing a 6 shot revolver style cylinder mounted on an M2 style reciever for multi-shot capability
