No, but you are doing the typical n00b thing:
Don't worry, we've all done it.
So you are saying the 88g Co2 cartridge isn't safe to use under 1000 psi? Why tell me in another thread that it is safe and now deny it?
No, I'm telling you that it is safe to use - that's a fact. What I'm saying is that your justification of it being safe should not be "because JSR said so", one should never appeal to authority to justify one's position - rather, liquid CO<sub>2</sub> can reach pressures of 1000 psi at ambient temperatures, and therefore products sold to contain it from reputable manufacturers can be reliably assumed to be safe at this pressure.

Oh okay, I understand now! Thanks JSR! I'll try not to be a n00b!
(Btw, I'm not planning to build all the launchers lol)

Of course not, but there is a certain tendency for newer members to make detailed plans to build something, in the same breath discard it and make detailed plans to build something completely different, and in the end nothing gets built.
Planning is good but don't stand on ceremony, build something, learn from it, build again, it's how these things go

Alright then. I do see myself doing that a little bit, designing one thing and then discarding it. :/ Oh well, I'll learn a lot about different gun mechanics though, that's what I love doing though, knowing that I have much knowledge about air gun mechanics and firearm mechanics makes me feel happy!
Dw, this project will get done... eventually
Once my Dad and I start cleaning space for the new workshop..

You know these cereal boxes with cardboard stuff you can cut out and it says "ask a parent to help you with the scissors"
I have to say you're being
very patient, almost like a parent
My parents were never THAT patient

Do you?
Oh good news then, it's less depressing than a -not very humble- statement you could've written instead.
"J'mets mes pieds où j'veux, et c'est souvent dans la gueule."

I don't get it CpTn_lAw
How was my statement depressing? I'm just grateful that I'm learning about all these things from you guys. I want to be an engineer for the Army when I'm older.
