LungFai Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 You can make one of these yourself, the schematics is on google. Other names for it will be fruit cannon, orange launcher, pipe cannon. Basically it's a PVC tube attached to a screw top L joint. Basic plumbing gear. Modify the screw cap with a BBQ ignition button. Modify the joint area to accommodate your sinker when you slide it down the barrel forming a plug. open screw cap, spray in some WD40, close cap to trap in gas. Ignite with a button push and voila a home made cannon. Made these back when i was a teenager....they are illegal in the eyes of Law as they are considered an illegal firearm....be easier to buy a Paintball gun with a gun license and using that to fire your rig over the waves....won't be as effective though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LungFai Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 looks like he is just using an air compressor for that one like they did on mythbusters Yeah but lugging around your air compressor would be a pain A can of WD40 is much lighter and quieter than an Air Compressor attached to ya 4WD.
