hello all,
i'm still trying to find camlocks for my noise cannon. no luck obviously or i wouldnt be writing. can you tell me what they are primarily used for. i dont really want to tell the salesman i'm building a cannon. he'll probably take down my license plate number or something. thanks.

ok thanks,
i was using one of those lantern sparkers, but went with a smaller diameter on the pvc, so i cant fit it in there. so i'm using the grill lighter.
thanks again.

thanks for the welcome.
so this burst disk is applied on the outside?
