PCGUY

Can you send me infoemation on this gun??? eg, diagram, materials lalalalala

I wanna build this thing! REALLY BADLY

it looks insane!!!!

it is quite simple really, there is a chamber with a pressure gauge - then the modded 1" sprinkler valve supporting what looks like a air duster trigger and then the barrel

Simple but really cool i like it

is the ammo loaded through the end of the barrel it looks like it to me

a laser sight would look really mean obviously in a good way

!!!!!!

Gonky check your private messages. Just in case if any one wants this gun I actually have one that looks the exact same its just not glued together (better price on shipping when its more compact). I was going to make it for someone else and it fell through. So if you want to buy it send me a PM.

Animal: Yes the ammo is put throught the open end of the barrel (top).

i second that, if you cant figure this out by looking at it dont build it, stick with simpler things and work your way up. also pcguy dosent have this gun, malkor does

gonky · Mon Oct 31, 2005 3:05 am

true beebs, But I have yet to attempt thus cannon or anything like it....therefore, im working my way up, And wish to find out as much about as I possibly can..... so it is not going to blow up in my face.

how did he attach the blowgun to the sprinkler valve cause only the inlet end is threaded 1/4" the outlet is smaller

boilingleadbath · Thu Feb 09, 2006 6:09 pm

I *think* that the outlet on those things is 1/8" NTP, in which case you could simply use all 1/8" fittings or or a reducing bushing, although I'm not sure it is 1/8" NTP. Either way, he appears to have attatched it using a hose & hose clamps.

his handle is still just a blow gun, CH makes there blowguns the same, except theres has a long nozzle with about a 140* angle
Edit:sorry, I didnt notice there was a second page, and on the posts I saw they were asking what the handle was.

nabu92 · Thu Feb 09, 2006 6:19 pm

it is a blow gun handle that can be bought from Harbor Freight tools.
Harbor Freight ROCKS!
