I am a PIPE FITTER/PIPE WELDER by profession so take my advice and read the instructions on your primer.You will see that you are supposed to apply the glue while the primer is still wet so that the PVC is still soft and makes the pipe and fittings fuse like a weld.MUCH STRONGER.

Being that you should definitely know more about this than me Bart, could you give me an idea of what to add to it to make it easier to hold. This looked like quite the chore for that guy to hold, with how long it is. Any idea for legs, or a grip, or handle, etc.? I have a few ideas but they all involve screwing something into the pipe, which would let air pressure out

@@smalltown89 I tweaked it a little and put valve stem in angled area in the 4 to 2 inch reducer. Not valve on end cap. I just set bottom on ground against side of foot and hold buy a tee I added to install pressure gauge then hold at a 45 degree angle and open valve. Also have a threaded barrel for for take down for easy transport. I wish I could include photos. Basically the same design but a few modifications. Ended up with about a four and half foot barrel so when in half I could get it in my car trunk easier.

Bart said it right, I'd like to add on these larger pipes sometimes it wants to pull itself off. So hold the fittings together for a few moments to let the glue adhere.
@oobihdahboobeeboppah2 жыл бұрын
Great build. Couple of suggestions: 1.) Instead of gluing the barrel or even using threaded fittings, simply drill through the barrel joint and put a snug fitting rod or nail through there. This will prevent your bait from slipping all the way through into the chamber and will allow you to disconnect the barrel at the end of the day. 2.) When cementing PVC, you should always give it a twist as you seat the pieces together. These will fuse in such a way that the melted PVC will create much better joined micro ridges between the fused pieces giving you a stronger bond. (Oh, and the music is way too loud. Any way to re-record it?)

Made the straight shooter, pumped it to 100psi.didnt use primer. Used rubber air valve on end cap, plastic 2in air valve after chamber. Only waited till glue was dry. 10min sitting w/ 100psi BLEW The shrader valve out one end and the 4in reducer on other. Primer is a must and maybe a brads air valve and screw nut type shrader valve

Reduced to 1 1/2 inch before valve with a 2" to 1 1/2 bushing. Added a tee with port for pressure gauge. Also drilled hole for valve stem in the the 4" to 2" reducer where it tapers towards the 2".

Great video, thank you! I'm going to put one together this week. Two tips, if you don't mind. If no one has mentioned it yet. Apply your pvc cement while the primer is still wet. Your bond will be much stronger and more air/water tight. Also, have you tried muriatic acid to get your pavers clean? You can get it at HD or Lowes. Try a very small section as a test first, but it should work well. The acid etches down below the surface. Clean the stain with full strength acid. Then you will want to do your whole patio with a diluted mixture for a uniform look. Instructions should be on the box and of course....You Tube will certainly have a video or two.

Likely something to do with a) the freezing process or b) how you’re removing the bait from the mold tube. Make sure it’s getting completely frozen before attempting to remove, and be careful when extracting from the mold. Don’t bang or tap it on anything to loosen the ice. I put mine in the water to loosen it slightly and then gently press on the ice with a broom handle. Sometimes they still break, but generally they are broken when I put them into the barrel rather than breaking upon firing. Good luck and thank you for watching!!

Threaded joint on the barrel would probably be fine because it’s past the ball valve, but don’t let that joint take the weight of the entire barrel or it might snap. Even when screwed in, try to support it.

Can you launch just a 2oz sinker and rig from this or does it need to have the ice molds?
@Woods2Table3 жыл бұрын
You know, I’m not sure. You’re going to want at least a small length of ice mold to fill the barrel and provide something for the air to catch and push up the barrel, but I also wonder if it would be effective to put your rig on top of the ice in the barrel instead of inside the ice. The ice would act like wadding inside a musket or similar. I’m headed to the beach this week to test a new cannon (stay tuned for that one! It’s BIG), and I’ll try this out and let you know.

There are tables online that will show the max pressure by size and schedule pvc. Just note those tables aren’t typically air pressure, believe they are water pressure. I just use them as an approximation. Re schedule 80 pvc - you can find most of what you need on usplastic.com

it will work, but it depends on the pump and the max psi. I've had limited success with them so far, but more so because the pumps I had just weren't that strong.

Wondering why the step down to 1.5". Was 2" not going to create enough pressure for distance? Bullets would increase in too much weight?
@Woods2Table3 жыл бұрын
Its true that a 2" barrel would have required 2" projectiles, which would be heavier. But if I'm being honest - laziness. I already had 1.5" diameter bait molds from the last build. :)

Hi bro it is fantastic 👏 I have done the 1.5" cylinder cuz i could not find the 4"one for now but i don't know how many psi for the 1m ×1.5"×4mm cylinder. 🤔
@Woods2Table4 жыл бұрын
I'm by no means an expert and would recommend you do your own research just to be safe BUT - looking at some schedule 40 psi ratings online, 1.5" is going to be stronger than 4" if the same thickness, ambient temperature, length etc. I'd also think you're going to need a lot of air if your cylinder and barrel are the same size (or close to it) and therefore hold a similar volume.

I have done some changes like I have putted 4 (4m ×1.5"×3mm ) 1 meter with 7 elbows, the pipe is class D H/P and the air is going in one direction from one edge then the trigger valve at the other end, and i compressed until 80 psi ant I am not sure if I can compress more or not.

Actually, don't know. 4" schedule 40 pvc is rated to 220 psi, but that's not air pressure, its liquid. I haven't taken this particular build above ~140psi just to be safe. Just make sure you get the pressurized sch 40 and not DWV. Ideally, use schedule 80 pvc. Be safe out there, build and use at your own risk... However -- if you really want to know, we're about to test the limits - you'll see it in an upcoming video :)

fun video. not to be a party pooper but ,man i wish people would use schedule 80. much thicker and stronger. ive seen 40 blow into shards that can take your head off for real. its worth the extra money to buy the 80. nothing worth dying over or losing an eye or getting a jugular punctured. id got the extra mile and wrap that air chamber in gorila tape real well just for an added measure of safety. nothing ruins a fishing trip faster than a man with a punctured jugular screaming while his heart pumps his body dry of blood and he showers his old lady and friends in blood then falls off the boat and drowns while he bleeds to death as the water turns red. then sharks go into a feeding frenzy on his carcass in the water in front of his friends and wife. ripping him limb from limb. His testicles like little bobbers floating on the surface. then rescue comes and pulls whats left of the carcass from the water with a long gaff hook by hooking him under the jawbone. and his family watches in horror as his half eaten carcass lay on the deck of the boat in the blazing sun. flies all over it. sharks circling the boat for another tasty bite. all because billy bob wanted to save a few bucks at lowes and buy schedule 40. dont be cheap. your testicles depend on it.

Its not funny, ghost rider is right. I’ve seen it happen. It haunts me to this day. The sharks continue to circle until they become all too curious. Having finished their appetizer, their now starving bellies crave the main course. One by one they take flying leaps at the stern, until one finally breaks through. The boat begins taking on water and listing astern until one by one, those on-board slide down into their jaws. A storm appears on the horizon. The winds quicken. A twister touches the water. The sharks are swept up into the air. The moisture drawn from the water’s surface keeps them alive. At breakneck speed the twister barrels toward the coast. Nearing civilization, the sharks are hurled from the storm and plummet toward the surface. Hundreds parish as the sharks fall to the city streets, devouring everything as they descend. We concur - buy schedule 80. The fate of civilization depends on it.
