this is my new gun called the spudinator CP. it is mainly 2" pvc with a 1" sprinkler valve. it has almost 400 ci of chamber space. the barrel is painted silver and everything else is metalic blue. it has two ways of fireing it electronicaly and pnumaticaly. i pump it up to about 90 psi and shoot blocks of wood that i cut with a hole cutter the fit perfect with a 2 1/8 cutter.

this is the control panel. the valve is a modefied 1" the hoses are the external equalization. when i bought it for a different gun it was leaking and not knowing what a equailzation hole was i took the plastic thing out (threw it away) and pluged it, so now knowing that that was a mistake i equalize it externaly. the valve on the left takes the place of the blow gun, the middle valve fills the chamber from an air compressor, the valve on the right pressurizes the top of the diaphram. so you open the two right valves close the one on the left so it fills both sides of the diaphram equally then close the right two and to fire you open the left valve.

Nice gun! I using the exact same switch for my hybrid. Noobs notice how he has all the PVC fittings sitting up against each other it makes your gun look better. Nice paint job. The only thing I can suggest is to buy a project box for your switch. One suestion how did you attach that pipe that runs across and holds the barrel up? Again nice cannon.
