You might be a spudgunner if the workers are the hardware store know what you are looking for the second you walk in.

You might be a spudgunner if you give a 10 minute speech explaining how to build an advanced combustion cannon.

You might be a spudgunner if you almost take a propane tank into school the day of your speech so you can show how it mounts.

You might be a spudgunner if your neighbors don't even care about the loud noises in the back yard.

You might be a spudgunner if you have more cans of propane than cans of beer.

You might be a spudgunner if you know all the local laws and ordinances about any type of firearm or loud noses

You might be a spudgunner if you have an '92 dodge dakota with a 318 v8 and are more redneck then the band redneck. You also need to have at least 4 camo coats, hats, pairs of gloves, and other misc. camo aparrel.

You might be lacking a decent sense of humor if you think that posting tons of mediocre (at best) YMBASGI's, most of which have already been said, just with slightly different wording, will entertain people.

Seriously people, what happened to the quality? My inbox is getting flooded with you people replying, and almost none have been worth reading...

You might be a spudgunner if youve lost your eyebrows over 5 times just checking for a spark.

If you still use DWV for a reducer in a combustion but are absolutley too scared to use anything less than sch80 or steel pipes for a piston pneumatic

Or if your combustion has seperated and singed your pubic hair through your favourite pair of jeans (true story :wink: )

You might be a spudgunner if, when watching mythbusters, you cannot help but think how much better the chicken cannon could have been with a barrel sealing piston valve

You might be a spudgunner if, every time you look under the sink, you almost forget that that piping is SUPPOSED to be there, not in your workshop.

You might be a spudgunner if, you pick fights with people who build with DWV,

You might be a spudgunner if, every time your friend tells you about his AEG, you cannot help but feel that electronic controls are cheating.

YMBASGI, you open up a youtube video titled "advanced airgun" and as soon as you see a ball valve, either laugh, cry or leave a horrendously rude comment to the poster of the video.

You might be a spudder if...

- you can sense the smell of unburned propane from a mile away
- you think "friends with benefits" means someone who can get you discounts at a hardware store
- you do not know what the real purpose of a marble is
- you can recommend four different kinds of pipe fittings to do the exact same job
- you help the employees find you stuff at a hardware store
- anything can be used as ammo with a little modification
- you can name six different ways to create a spark
- you've been shocked by six different types of sparks

This is fun. I'll see what else I can come up with...

YMBASGI you realize that the cops riot shotguns have nothing over your repeater barrel sealing piston launcher. (OK so Im working on it :D )

You might be a spudgunner if:

you find yourself starring off into space, obsessing over your cannon ideas and no matter who you are with, where you are or what you WERE doing, nothing short of an earth shattering cataclysmic event will bring your mind out of the clouds and back to earth with the rest of humanity.

You might be a spudgunner when you don't believe the not rated for pressure and test the limits for yourself.

You might be a spudgunner if you know what 4X means.

You might be a spudgunner if you know at least 3 ways to mod a sprinkler valve.

you might be a spudgunner if you take a tape measure to the supermarket.

You have a collection of broken PVC shards but can't throw them out for sentimental reasons.

Both of these apply to me!

Although the second one is more just because my workshop is to messy for me to find them all and pick them up.

I'm pretty sure I tried to use a length of 3/4 PVC as a wrench extension, it exploded into 3 thousand pieces, and 3 years later, 5 complete workshop clean-outs, and I'm still finding shrapnel scattered around the place!

And I have received all sorts of crazy looks from people when I take various measuring and recording instruments into stores,

I once sat down on the floor in the very narrow plumbing section of my hardware store and took time to figure out the various volumes of all the fittings. paper, pencil clipboard and calculator, the whole 9 yards out there with me, I then took pictures of all the fittings! :wink: all the employees think I have some form of mental retardation now,
