[23:34] <Eckels> remember my potato gun?
[23:34] <moosleep> Yes
[23:35] <Eckels> last night we tried a shot in the dark to see if there was a flame
[23:35] <Eckels> so we took a video of it
[23:35] <moosleep> :o
[23:36] <cronic> mount that gun to the truck
[23:36] <cronic> youre to be our last line of defense
[23:36] <Eckels> this is just a freeze frame of the video
[23:36] <Eckels> but it's sick
[23:36] <moosleep> Gonna throw my clothes in the dryer real quick.

[23:37] <cronic> that screams america fuck yeah!
[23:37] <cronic> nice
[23:37] <Eckels> in the video at like 1/8th slow-mo.... there's an explosion that makes the whole gun glow from back to front as it fires
[23:37] <cronic> rockets red glare mufuggas
[23:37] <Eckels> it's fucking amazing
[23:38] <Eckels> that is a true undoctored photo
[23:38] <Eckels> hair spray and taters
[23:38] <cronic> we have a potato cannon that we decided to use for large bottle rockets
[23:38] <cronic> after about 30 miutes the whole thing caught fire
[23:38] <Eckels> lol
[23:38] <Eckels> well to be honest
[23:39] <cronic> one window was lost and someone fucked up their hand pretty bad
[23:39] <cronic> fortunatly no one noticed erither
[23:39] <Eckels> after seeing this video in slowmo and knowing that the entire barrel explodes with a glow that makes it radiate...
[23:39] <Eckels> i'm not sure i want to hold this thing close and fire it anymore
[23:39] <cronic> well maybe with like paintball gear
[23:39] <cronic> mask an shit
[23:39] <Eckels> egad no
[23:39] <cronic> heh
[23:39] <Eckels> what would be the fun of that
[23:40] <cronic> walkin away
[23:40] <cronic> it's a blast if ya do it right
[23:40] <cronic> safely anyway
[23:40] <Eckels> nah, this is probably the hundred and fiftieth shot out of this cannon
[23:40] <cronic> you gotta kid to think about bro ...it's about time you thought padding
[23:40] <Eckels> i'll make a new one soon anyway
[23:41] <cronic> heh fair enough
[23:41] <Eckels> oh we dont shoot people
[23:41] <Eckels> this thing would kill anything
[23:41] <moosleep> That is fucking awesome.

That is pretty slick

I never got around making my gun and its prolly a good thing too. All the shit that I could get into with it lol

[Drunken Tiger]

Lol, what were you aiming at? Please tell me you destroyed something.

That thing looked like it got pretty hot? Didn't it burn ur hands?

Man, that picture's dark. At first, I looked at it and said "It's a rocket!" but then my brother tilted the screen a little and then I said "It's a gun!" Wow, that's pretty cool.

Ah potato cannons. What a fun yet pointless thing to do. I've got a friend that has several in his garage. One has like a 8 foot long barrel. And it just uses air, no chemical reaction. It's all neat at first but then I tend to think, fuck that, make your own actual cannon. Cast iron balls to shoot out of it or whatever. Or just buy a real firearm.

Spray deoderant works well, too.
