[Andrew52]

have you ever though about adding how much youve spent on guns if u added it up it would proly be a heck of a lot ive prolly spen over 200$ on guns i mean thats alot you guys should give a guess on how much you have spent

[saladtossser]

probly $300 to date if i didnt recycle stuff and hunt for ignitors all the time

[rna_duelers]

Would have to be about $300-$400...Never thought of that...Thats sad!!!I could of spent that on a...Actualy i like my cannons so nothing else

around AUS $600 including addons and paint. But a lot of that was given to me by my parents, as they pay for a lot of my needs if its to do with school. And I have made quite a few for school. But I agree with rna-deulers that it is worth it. A lot of money, a lot of guns and a crap load of damage.

well, if i were to include the value of all the free parts and tools i got, i'd be way into the thousands range.

I've spent well over $1000 on spudding. I wouldn't doubt $2000. And that is probably nowhere near as much the amount many other Spudtech members have spent.

I haven't really spent that much despite building around 6 cannons and various other PVC projects such as water rocket launchers and water cannons , since PVC pipe is quite cheap here and so are the fittings. Plus I only use ball valves with my pneumatics since I cant seem to find any sprinkler valves.

However, ask me again in about 2 months and my total expenses will have doubled since I have another 3 projects planned.

Anyway, the point is that when your at the hardware store and you see something that makes you go "Ohhh, this gives me a great idea..." you ll always end up buying more than you need, it always happens to me.

They plan it like that those dam hardware stores!I go in there to get some pvc glue or something and i go to the pvc section and i am in instant ecstacey my mouth waters and my knee's go weak(not realy) and i buy all these parts i dont need but still i continue to go there and spend all my cash on a new pressure guage or another 5 propane bottles.....Its quite sad But then again i love my cannons
so all is good...Ohh and yeah does anyone else get the jitters when they go to hardware stores or is it just me???

[Jakal444]

At least now I know im not alone!

This one time I went in to buy 20 cable ties and ended up leaving with a half inch tee, a ball valve, and endcap and some half inch pipe. These became my first ghetto pneumatic which used a 2L bottle as a reservoir. As a matter of fact, it was that gun that made me want to take up backyard ballistics seriously.[/list]

[pipeguru777]

wow i thot i was the only one that spent WAY to much in hardwere stores. good to no i'm not alone ha ha.

[Andrew52]

although sometimes the clerks get a little suspicious when they see a 13 year old ( thats how old i am at least) walking arouund grabbing fittings valves pipe ect. they sometimes ask whats it for my reply: school project lol then some guy buying pipe and fittings for a logical reason and e will laugh and say building spud guns? and we will talk for a while and there suprised how much they have advanced sice the old abs hair spray or the soup can ones
