I built this cannon back in march for the St. Patrick's Day parade in a town near me, i used it to shoot green confetti, i wasnt actually in the parade, but it gave some of the people watching near me some good fun. the chamber is about 14" of 1" pipe, and the barrel is the same, the valve is a modified orbit Watermaster. about 10 pumps on a bike pump gets it to 110psi. its also the irish flag colors, orange, white and green (i had some orange paint left over from my combustion, so i figured i'd paint it. since the parade i've been using it to fire water, and as just a small pneumatic i can take with me instead of a combustion
