!!!Spud Guns!!!

[rotten76]

I figure with all the people on here that make their own mods, there's got to be a couple that have made these. I've made several of these. This my newest one. Still need to clean up the wiring a little and paint it. But it works just fine as is.
- 1.5" barrel
- dual 4" combustion chambers
- butane powered
- 4" fans and ball valves (to mix fuel and clear the chambers)
- 100,000v stun gun ignition

Wow! I've used a few in my day, never made one. We stuck with PVC pipe and Hairspray with an igniter out of a coleman lantern.

That's what I started out with. Since they took all the good stuff out of hairspray it doesn't work very good (if at all) and it's really messy.

It's been a long time, but those things were a lot of fun. I graduated to those after the water balloon (or snowball, or orange,...) slingshot and then moved on to paintball. Never got into manufacturing, but I sure enjoyed the shooting part.

holy hell. I used to make those a long time ago. Put a hole in my b-ball backboard with a spud.

Didn't I see this in one of the terminator movies?

Yep those were fun. We used propane and oxygen. My buddy managed to blow one up and implant part of the PVC tube in his leg.

Yeah... Buddy and I made one once... Functional, but not pretty. We estarted with 4" SCH 40 PVC and took it to a bushing to get it to 2"... or maybe 1 1/2".... e used the Coleman spin-flint for ignition. Always liked LPS, or WD-40 for fuel.

Always wanted a remote ignition and have it mounted to my '72 Dart. That doesn't scream, "Pull me over!!" Stupid kids.

Thats a nice looker. I think you did a great job on it.

Thanks, glad you guys like it. Wish I still worked in the machine shop, I'd make another stainless one. Still need to make a smaller pistol style for the ol' lady.
