Just a man testing a perfectly legal muzzling loading cannon, next time we’ll have to load it with something different! Airsoft pellets? Rocks? Wood? You name it! Check WraithDefense.com to shop at my store.
Could have tried stuffing a bunch of rocks in with a wad like material to see what happens down range, I’m curious what the spread of a improvised cannon shotgun would be
So my "genius" idea on a cheap, and potentially effective, "cannon-ball" would be taking a quick dry epoxy or concrete mix and filling an empty aluminum can with it, let it sit/dry for however long it needs to - and tada you've got a can shaped projectile that's significantly more solid than the previous gaseous and liquid filling!
So like think a wheel barrel with some 2by 4 run through it to hold the cannon in place would make it portable and even more awesome (I feel like loading it with ornaments and Christmas tree lights would make for a fantastic Christmas in July episode) you could call it the home alone cannon
Balsa wood sabot, crossbow bolt!! Still within a safe weight to stay together! Can size piece with a deep dish bowled out in the front, 1/4ed and drilled lengthwise. Use thin o-rings to hold it together and work somewhat as a wad/gas seal until shot
The thing with smokeless powder is it really needs to be in a sealed environment to generate enough gas to actually pressurize and cause thrust. That's why it won't work in most cannons that have a fuse hole. The gas just escapes past the projectile and out of the fuse hole. I'm not sure of the science but for some reason black powder doesn't need to be in a completely sealed environment despite burning slower than smokeless. I like your rocket fuel mix, though. I've never seen a can reach hyper velocity before.
That is really interesting, seems how black powder is much slower burning than smokeless powder. Could the smoke and soot be dense enough to temporarily seal the bore and fuse hole to get compression?
Blackpowder burns faster than smokeless in most instances... like 99% of the time. Maybe, smokeless powder burns quicker in the chamber of a smokeless powder firearm. And that's like the only instance that it burns faster than blackpowder. Would have to read up on it.
Glucose? Sorbitol? That was an energetic mix. That would also be fun to try in a muzzle loader as a janky BP substitute. Future reference, if you really need a little BP estes rockets are one solid grain. Remove clay and delay, mill it, and rock and roll.
Hahahaha dude, another entertaining and surprisingly educational video bro. I hope you had fun puttin this together and that you have a kickass day too.
If it’ll fit a soda can it’ll fit a tennis ball. Light enough you shouldn’t build pressure too high resilient enough to leave in one piece. And bright enough to find after it flies.
@@nigeltheoutlaw weeb-gamer-doomer-goth-femboy-ammosexuals are the most oppressed minority on earth and yet they won’t teach you that in your kindergarten critical race theory class...
What if you take that post driver and you fill it with random objects that you think would be good for home defense or a random object laying around and see how good they would fare against a paper target or a gelatin target to see what he can do with random objects
I gotta say Mr. Camera light eye ball dude!! You are a fucking man of genius!!! All my years of slamming Tpost……. Goes to show. Not every man is equal hahahahahaha arm up America. Because when they come for your guns.. light your Tpost driver!! 😂
Fill plastic Christmas ornaments with resin or cement! They're cheap as hell and you can reuse them as molds! *(those gaudy plastic balls that seem to go on sale every tree holiday season.)*
Make a 3d printed projectile with a .22LR in it with a pin waiting to make contact with the primer upon inpact, resulting in a little .22 mortar (Feel free to fill the projectile up with something explosive like your rocket fuel for a fun reaction.
Try shooting sand, ig it will look really cool and act like a shotgun with way too much spread. If possible try setting up ballistic gel to see the actual damage
