after 4 months of waiting for my valve it arrived, i had all the peices assembled. except for the valve, of course.
specs, 39x4 inch air chamber 5 foot by 2 inch barrel, spupah plus with pneumatic actuation, tripod/w 45 to 180 degree angle adjustment, schrader valve
mainly i was shooting koosh balls, because of my yard size, but event with koosh balls i was still ably to blow plywood to pieces.
here is a movie of the gun shooting a koosh ball at a soda can the first movie i hit the can at 20 psi the second video i missed the can at 35 psi but is definately worth watching because it shows the speed that the projectile leaves the barrel.

4 months? i bet it felt like it was worth the wait after that first shot. That's a clean solid gun. where'd you find the pressure rated bushing that connects to the supah (what store)?
but by using a valve so expensive i would suggest making the most out of it by giving that nice gun interchangable barrels.

Joel sells Male\Female adapters and you can ask for the bushing....
and if Home-Depot doesn't sell them, check PlumbingSupply.com... expensive $6.75 processing if you order under $20, but they sell about everything

4 months!!! How could you possibly run a business that makes people wait 4 months to get what they ordered and expect them them to buy from you. I was going to order a sprinkler valve off that site but not anymore if it takes that long. What's so hard about putting some stuff in a box and taking it to the UPS drop off? I guess he has to make everything but who knows, it shouldn't take that long...
It is a nice gun you made though. No stains or anything. Interchangeable barrels will definetly be a plus for that gun.

Stop bitching, he didn't order a sprinler valve, he ordered a Supah valve, and even if it took forever, thoose babies are well worth the wait....
Most orders get out in 2 weeks to a month, but some variations of the Supah Valve took a long time....
I freaked out the same way when gort said his order took 6 months, but I later found out that he changed some stuff a few times.
I like this gun a lot, the tripod is sweet and it has no primer stains.... I assume you used clear primer?
Lol I love filling it to 100psi and shooting it, man thoose things are SOOOO loud... at 100 psi they make your ears hurt

why is it that everybody thinks that it is impossible to top the supah,and that nobody can build a better valve? Can it shoot through a carhood at 20 psi ? and for the price I could build three of my piston valves. With my valve,at 45 psi, I got thirty six seconds of hangtime. okay sorry,I'm done now,very nice cannon
