don't whine like a ##### and get your own fridge compressor (says a guy with a broken fridge compressor)

Dude... seriously! I currently have four fridge compressors under my desk, haven't bothered connecting any of them because:

- I has hybrids

- I has a 4500 psi SCUBA tank

- I has hybrids

A lot of over engineering for spin stabilising a tennis ball...


You'd have to have a very very fast motor to stabilise a bullet through.

This does work at low RPM, hardly an oblong projectile though.1:47 Min[youtube][/youtube]

Teh pneubs.... they just don't understand...

I can't really tell from the video if it's broken?

Can't you tell some of the digits are missing/the display just shows a bunch of lines? I thought I could tell easily enough from the video, though I originally did think I may have been moving the camera around too much.

I has hybrids to, but for general poking holes in stuff a pneumatic is more fun.

IWOST: the high pressure is messing with my piston sealing face..
I used a half of a brass union for soldering to copper pipes that fits perfectly inside my valve seat to make a bigger surface for the piston to rest on, literally took me all fakkign day!

ITWOST(omorrow): Do what I was supposed to do today, measure my barrel

MrC: Haha, that is the ultimate fail I have been so close to doing that myself too many times!

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

Teh pneubs.... they just don't understand...

How many youtube videos will it take, I wonder.

[SpudFarm]

How many youtube videos will it take, I wonder.

YOU FAIL, you have to film the loading process for the pneubs to see the picture!


IWOST: Ordered a compression gauge with a one way push button valve, probably have to add a third even smaller piston valve to the gun to make it sensitive enough though.

10x mix, 130g projectile. The 40lb Mjollnir cannon moved back about 100cm from a stationary position on the ground. The kick up you can see in the video was really surprising; there must be one hell of a muzzle blast as I shot it from about 2m away.

In conclusion, my newly modified piston rocks. It literally takes 10-15 hits from a hammer to get it in to position against the barrel but so far it has opened without problem when a projectile has been used.

Sh|t went flying everywhere.

It's raining melon! Awesome shot, especially the rock flying towards the camera, I'm assuming that after your recent chrony shot it was behind something solid

[MrCrowley]

Haha you think too highly of me, the camera wasn't behind anything... I really should buy some plexiglass but I've become quite indifferent over the fate of my Exilim since the flash and zoom stopped working

Not sure if I'd still feel indifferent if the lens had been scratched by that rock

You're safer if you use protection

[killerbanjo]

Nice Whats it made from, plexyglass?

[killerbanjo]

Sweet, got some nice stuff there. Wouldnt mind one of there grips and igniters but at about 50 GBP for the two shipped im holding off for now...

MrC, how about a CHRONY 2012 campaign lamenting your shattered instrument, where you run around the streets naked shouting at traffic and playing with yourself, because of "dehydration"
