Do an instructable man. I laughed at this. Brilliant.

I will probably do this project, and use my Three Stooges lighter for the heat source, now that I don't smoke any more. Plus, it seems oddly appropriate for this use.

Thanks for the instructable!

If its metal you could use propane, you would have more than twice as much power, just need a stand.

I always said that with a large enough potato gun you could rule the world ... well I bow down before your superior potato delivery system!

airgun_expert says: Feb 18, 2010. 11:42 AM
HAHAHA! WOW! That could DISMEMBER someone. Mount it on a tank as a turret and fire aluminum slugs since steel might be too heavy.

nutsandbolts_64 says: Feb 12, 2010. 7:33 PM
Imidiately after i saw that, i thought you could load some explosive ordnance in there! Mount it on a truck as an anti-material rifle!

Sergant Tinkers says: Jun 6, 2009. 4:53 PM
Friggin' AMAZING! How much did that cost, and could you make an instructable on it? That could tear down a small home with the right ammo!
CrazeexGood says: May 23, 2009. 7:50 PM
this could probably take out some small, propeller driven aircraft.... MOUNT IT ON A PLANE
