SpudFiles

Hi everyone, let me introduce you to my stainless steel combustion spudgun made in France

Name of the spudgun:
El perkele
(means "the devil" in Swedish)

Dimensions:

1st Barrel: 44mm (1.7 inches) ID and 700mm (2'3") long
2nd Barrel: 30mm (1.2 inches) ID and 1400mm (4'7") long
Chamber: 84mm (3.3 inches) ID and 370mm (1'2") long
C:B ratio: 1.92
Weight: 5.1 kg (11.2 pounds)

General data about the spudgun:
* fan to improve air mixing
* LED light mounted on the chamber (just for the fun of it)
* BBQ lighter
* Entirely made of stainless steel and pickled in acid
* Body and handle brushed style effect, polished barrel
* Flame-like & name engraving at the end of the barrel

Performance:
* Gives a lot of sensations (especially the noise)
* Average range is 200 meters, shooting 44mm caliber potatoes
(it's kinda hard to find the 30mm ones :s)

The videos will come as soon as I find a cameraman.

looks really clean maan! Nice job!! Wow you evenengraved the tubes.... niiice

WOW! One of the cleanest builds I've ever seen. Though I think the combustion does justice to the steel.

Oooh, congrats on a very good job!

I like your use of stainless steel! Looks very good.
Maybe convert it into a hybrid?

Very nicly done! Maby add metered propane injection if you decide to upgrade? What are you using for fuel?

Side note: I'll move this to the combustion showcase section for you.

thank you for your compliment

for the hybrid, it will be for new plan ....again in stainless steel

thank you for the gallery

That is by far one of the nicest steel cannons I have ever seen...you should be very proud. About how long did it take you to get the supplies and make?

What is that?!!? For a cannon that nice, you could at least spend $35 on a propane metering system... lol

Again, very nice work, besides the lack of propane meter, 10/10!

EDIT: Oh, and in the bottom pic, your ignition system looks different. Did you upgrade to a better ignition system? (stun gun, electric bbq igniter, camera flash, etc.)

That cannon is beautiful...

I agree with STHORNE... a cannon like that deserves a fuel metering system.

good morning

I l have fabricate in 8 hours (cut, welded, polished, engraved) !

on the last photograph, the systeme d ignition is piezo gas but I l replaced with a piezo barbecue.

the fellow will be with a meter propane

thank you for your felicitation

Wow! That looks very nice. I'll be waiting to see your next build.
Nice s.s. but be careful not to shoot citrus fruits because they corrode/stain stainless steel (and aluminum). 8)

That's so freaking awesome! It looks like some sort of a futuristic gun sort of thing...How did you engrave it? And also, that is an awesome flashlight.

thank you

the engraving is made with a dremel

About how long did it take you to get the supplies and make?
