Air Cannon
I made this project because I cannot get a air cannon easily in Bahrain due to the lack of tools for most of the projects I want to make
Supplies
-ball valve..From a construction equipment store
-pvc pipes (2 diffrents sizes)..From a construction equipment store
-pvc copller (checl your pvc pipes size)
-pvc glue ..From a construction equipment store
-pvc end cap
-steam valve (aka biycle pump)[from aliexpress for BHD0.39]
-a saw
-drill
In the first step, determine the width of the air chamber in your air launcher, and cut and paste what you want to place, As for the tube that will be in the nozzle, you must cut it into two sides. The first has the nozzle and then connects to the ball valve. On the other side of it, you will attach it to the ball valve. On the other side of it, the remaining part will go into the coppler air storage chamber.
dont forget to glue everything
In the second step, you will take the end cap They drill a hole using a drill, making sure it fits the size of the steam valve and insert it into it. You can also secure it by putting a little PVC glue while making sure that it does not close the valve itself so that you can inflate it. Paste the end cap on the body, making sure that everything is secure and that no air leaks from it
now your cannon is ready to shoot.just load it with air and you are ready to shoot
Sorry if the steps are not clear, I made it a long time ago and now I am writing about it, so you do not have many pictures and detailed information.
This is a drawing that might be useful to you (it is not exactly the same as what I made, but it explains the idea. It was written in Arabic)
Enjoy (:
