Show us your pneumatic spud gun! Discuss pneumatic (compressed gas) powered potato guns and related accessories. Valve types, actuation, pipe, materials, fittings, compressors, safety, gas choices, and more.
I can start (and possibly finish) the hammer tomorrow, and definitely finish by the weekend (3 day weekend woot woot). I might place my order and get some parts in next week. Then I need to get the barrel and chamber, and all the other stuff. So a few more weeks

Oh my friggin god stop being so awesome, that thing is pure kick ass. Most innovative and creative pneumatic that the files have ever come by!
It took all day lol in the morning I finished drawing it in CAD then printed out a 1:1 scale drawing and used it to make the parts. But I don't think it's strong enough and that was the best spring I could get. I can add another spring on the hammer though and attach it on the bottom, to get twice the force. I might have to do that...
I didn't, my brother gets crap loads of flares and guns and stuff like that from his work, so I asked and he gave me one The hammer has a steel point on it to hit the flare but I can take that off and replace it with a plastic bolt or something, I'll pad it with rubber so it doesn't break the push button valve The only problem with it is that it's ugly haha but the valve will fit perfectly in it.
cool, I´m making a hammer like that for my new pcp too even through the internal mechanism is slightly different

My hammer is very similar to the flare gun mechanism, except the flare gun uses a compression spring and I use an extention. I'm adding another spring to mine so it might have a chance at being strong enough for the valve at 400 psi. I know the flare gun can handle it, but this thing is ugly so I'll only use it if I need to
My will have to open my moded blowgun valve at almost 1000 psi and not ugly at all.
