This is my first post of a completed project although its my third ever.
I built this when i couldnt be bothered to go to the local bunnings and get some crap.The combustion chambers a pepsi bottle and the barrel is a leg from a metal chair.I shot marbles with it.

It works alright my neiighbours were having a loud party and i hit some guy with it. pretty funny :twisted:
