Hmm, do they make portable air tanks that are smaller than those huge 5 gallon ones, you could fill that with a compressor, then fill your cannon from that, so you don't always have to be a few feet away from a compressor.
I've been thinking about maybe trying to make a portable air tank using an old fire extinguisher, but I'm afraid that I might end up exploding myself or something.
air pump...
i made a tank out of a fire extinguisher and it is perfectly safe. mine is one of those little tanks, so i get about 3 shots with it on a small pneumatic. i find its not even worth it, but if you have a big one try it.
"physics, gravity, and law enforcement are the only things that prevent me from operating at my full potential" - not sure, but i like the quote
you know you are not an engineer if you have to remind yourself "left loosy righty tighty"

i used one of those pink helium tanks that you can get at party pig or similar(which i got for free from the neighbors trach heap) and drilled a hole and epoxyd a schrader valve in then added hoses onto theo nozzle and now i have a portable air tank thats about the size of a propane tank.

Fine, then go use the bike pump. When it get's old (it will) then you'll probably want a CO2 setupMatt221985 wrote:co2 setup, lotta money, bike pump cheap, lol
