Honestly, i think a 4 minute vid would be better. personally i lose interest in long vids and just click on something else. btw u can cram alot of stuff in a 4 min vid. we dont wanna bore newcomers just give them a good taste so they will think its really cool and want to learn more.

Well whens the deadline for the pics? I am almost done with my Sniper and If you give me another week or 2, I can make a kickass painjob. Or I could just take pictures now with the crappy old white.

and we have to get the point of learning before making sick stuff etc. if you tell people that they also get a little clue on the work behind this and don't think we are stupid guys willing to kill ourself to get a boom.

also if new commers are rushing in after this we should be nice to them.

one more thing is that the video should be uploaded bu about three members and have different names to get more views

Well I'm gonna say that it is very soon, less than a week or I'll never be able to finish the video.

that and it broke........... i coupled metal fittings with plastic fittings...... and made it too tight.....

im re-contsructing it eventually... i still have the barrel. it was a great cannon........ but i kinda want to make it better with a piston valve and high-pressure capabilites........

oh well this is a picture thread not a cannon discussion thread........ so i guess i should post another picture.....

Um... I think I'm gonna set the bar for pictures here. It doesn't mean that you still can't submit pictures, but it means that I will only use the amount that has been submitted as of now. So, if you can top these pictures, post but if you can't don't bother. I'm using the best pictures from here on out. Also, I've mentioned it in the parallel running thread on the spudfiles video, but no one likes a video that doesn't have video. Submit video here, I'm gonna check everyday now. Make sure they're new or not already on youtube. The time is ticking. The deadline for the video itself, in full form, is by June 15.

Can you download Vimeo vids? If so, I'll post a few of mine here.

I could get you some pics of my fridge compressor too if you would like, though it is not one of the more glamorous ones.

wow, that pic of the embedded penny is very impressive lentamentalisk.

I would like to see it in the video but considering how defacing U.S. currency is against the law, I wouldn't say you would be safe using it freely in a video.

oh... um... that thing? I just taped it on to make it look like it was... uh... shot through...
Why is it bent? well... uh... I have a major wide angle lens on my camera...

The 4king nail through it maybe?.....lol
but since it wasn't an actual damage shot, it doesn't matter anyway.
