The pressure we launch at varies depending on where we are and how far we need the shirts to go. Its usually between 40-60 psi. If we have very little room to launch we may back it down to 20-30 psi. I believe the diameter of the barrel is around 6" but I wasn't directly involved with the build. We prepare shirts by rolling them up and wrapping them with either tape or a rubber band. We sometimes put flyers in the shirts that have information about our team.
