It may be mentioned somewhere in the vast expanses of this thread, but what are you using as a sealing face for the burst discs, and how well does it withstand repeated firings?

I put a flat seal, it does not burn ...

Do you mean to say that the sealing face is brass? It must be quite finely machined then, and the disc would need a very smooth surface.

the surface is made of brass, I put on this surface rupture disc and a steel flat seal rubber made of 20x27mm on this disc.

Nice family photo :)

I will try and post you the projectile soon, if not tomorrow I will do it on Monday.

Since I'm probably going to get started on the "long range" projectiles soon, can you confirm that the barrel inner diameter will be 33mm?

I look forward to keep it in hand!


I can easily have 30mm copper tube inside the 33mm I have to order it online ...
Length it is necessary?

1 metre is more than enough :) I'll see if I can get started on the first projectile tonight, it will probably look like a bit of a Ryanair mini-boy :D
