They call me... Tater salad. [Potato Guns].

Went to Home Depot yesterday and acquired most of the parts necessary for a potato gun, excluding the damn barbecue sparker. ABS really hits the budget hard.

We're looking at a 2 inch diameter pipe ABS potato gun, with a 3''1 long barrel which is detachable from the gas chamber. It's designed for safety, because ABS usually SPLITS and does not SHATTER in case of gun malfunctioning.

Costed me about... $19.08 WITHOUT the barbecue sparker, just because I ran outta cash. I was actually short eight cents.

I won't be shooting this because I'm in Liberal California, so I just chucked it up in the attic. Oh well, at least I feel like I did SOMETHING. Maybe I might somehow go to the desert and use it.

Why do you think you need a barbecue ignition? Just hack apart a lighter and use hot glue (or any other adhesive) to glue it's ignition system on the inside. Easy.

Show me visually how, and I'll do it. I just like the barbecue ignition because it's reliable, durable, and simple... I mean come on it's a big red button.

We built a potatoe cannon out of mostly PVC pipe. The thing has 4 air chambers, and launches a whole potatoe at least 300 feet. Its freaking awesome. Plus, it can be taken apart and put back up, so we can go down to mexico, set it up, and have fun without having to be fucked with during border crossing. <3

So it's a pneumatic cannon?

I tend to like combustibles... It's easy to make it fire, less power sure- but still. FIRE.

How about a potato gun that shoots off of the air pressure you provided yourself in a balloon beforehand. It may not be as impressive but at least to fired the potato from what counts the most. That is of course the inside......and your lungs.

Air compressor.... Quick release valve... and a bicycle valve.
All you need to convert most PVC contraptions to pneumatic.
