video knex giant cannon sneak peek
 this is my biggest gun i ever made. without its new stand, it is 1.65m tall (5.4 feet) and is still as tall as me with the stand, which i just found out that it holds the gun at the perfect shooting angle: 45 degrees.
i will post instructions soon, after i have tested it.

'Ultimate'? Hardly. It may be long, but it cannot support the amount of bands that IAC's cannon's can, thus making it inferior. Not the 'Ultimate knex cannon'.

how can u say that? (you havent seen it fire)

anyway, its way bigger than his...
RMConstruction in reply to shieldsamDec 4, 2010. 7:07 AM
Your understanding of physics is inadequate. This may be longer, but it lacks the structural support that is in all of IAC's cannons. This stretches the bands farther, but doesn't effectively use that force. The more stable the system, the more stable the launch. This could get up to 50ft more with EXTREMELY good stability. That is how 'I say that'.
