Re: pic: T-Shirt Launcher, still needs a chasis
One suggestion that I've heard before but I'm not sure has been mentioned here, if someone does plan on using PVC for a cannon, perhaps just build shielding around it. I seem to recall another launcher design that incorporated a larger diameter PVC tube around the main cannon that would block any flying parts in case of a catastrophic failure.
In the case of this design, maybe even just a polycarbonate box around the launcher so that onlookers can still see all the mechanisms but are protected?
