Thats awsome. My parents would kill me if i shot marbles, and it hit the wall. I also like how it can be taken apart for travel.

thats awesome! please post plans. do you use breaker balls? becase i measured the little ones and they're about a perfexct fit for 1/2 sdr 13.5.
if I make it it would be my first pneumatic.

if you need plans to build a spudgun, you shouldnt be building them. even on my first one, i just looked at different designs and planned my own after i knew how they worked

Thats a very good point iamthewalrus. It is very important to understand the physics and dynamics behind a

toy

like this. Its a weapon, and everyone associated with this sport/practice need to realize the severity of the damage that can be produced from a cannon.

couldnt be said much better, people see these and think "cool i can use this in a paintball/airsoft game to shoot someone with a bunch of paintballs/bb's at once" but the truth is, unless you're using it as an indirect fire weapon or to take out tanks you're going to do some serious damage to someone, after 300fps (almost all guns are over this) it can cause some major damage to someone, and the goggles on a paintball mask can possibly shatter if hit with something going that fast

Yeah, I think that it was a hybrid that i posted a comment on about using it for paintball, and that is a really stupid idea as you corrected me on. PSI is nothing to mess around with, and an unaimed shot could seriously wound someone. Don't mess with it unless you know what you're doing.

I do agree with you last few guys but i mean what's the best kind of material to use for diaphrams and what to use for a good cut that's my only real question.

Neoprene rubber supported by a washer cut out with an Ex-acto blade or straight razor.

This is off subject but the thing you called a football on the comparision picture is really a soccer ball. Nice gun though. Is the gun inaccurate or can you just not aim good?(thats not ment to be a insult)
