ps, i dont think the picture does it justice, its about 8feet long,
3 inch chamnber 1.5 inh barrell sdr 26 for golf balls, the didnt have sdr 21, but my barrell is removable so when i find some ill buy that. the golf ball arrow i made shot about a hundred yards with just a ball valve and thirty psi. i aimed it almost straight up too, the hang time was enormous.

i cant wait till i make it wokr.
another ps, my chamber stops at the first tee valve, i glued and siliconed a C battery into the back half of the two tee valves to block the air because i couldnt find any pvc "stoppers"

I think that there's sopposed to be a arrow on the valve... is it pointing towards your barrel. If not, that's probably why it's not working.

Maybe try flipping the valve around? Maybe by some odd chance they misprinted the side?

i was just wondering, is that a ball valve and a sprinkler valve?? and if so...why??

Look for his other threads... at first we thought he wasn't able to fill the cannon fast enough for the sprinkler to seal, so he added a ball valve so he could fill up the chamber then open the ball valve. That way, when he opened the ball valve, there would be enough pressure/flow to make the sprinkler close.
Although, it didn't work, and I don't think anyone ever got the problem figured out (unless he did and he's not telling us

)
