Re: Help with T-Shirt Cannon

Since a discussion on T-shirt cannon designs has been brought up, I thought I might ask this: as opposed to a pneumatic approach to the firing of the t-shirt, has anyone ever thought of using flywheels?

I had this idea an year ago, but people had concerns over shredding by the flywheels although I'm partially convinced that such a design might be better and perhaps more safer than these pneumatic t-shirt cannons that we usually see being made.
