Re: T-shirt cannon help please!

If you scroll down you will see video of our prototype. We have fancied it up since these pics/video was taken and have added pistons so that it can change the positions (30 and 45 degree angles approx.). We use PVC cartridges, each containing a tightly wrapped and taped t-shirt. They are then gravity fed to the shooting position, locked tight next to the 120 psi confetti cannon integrated solenoid and tank. Once the shirt has been launched, the cartridge is unlocked and a piston knocks it out the side, making way for the next cartridge to slide into place.
