Re: T-Shirt cannon pnuematic set ups

I'm sorry that I don't have any suggestions for pneumatics so I thought that I'd provide an alternative.

Well, I personally never built a t-shirt cannon with pneumatics but for an engineering class, I built an air cannon that could launch a nerf football through a goalpost. I felt that it was rather easier than pneumatics
imo. All I used was PVC piping, and a control valve (also PVC). We ended up launching the ball about 40 feet when the pressure was up to 30 psi, so it worked pretty well, and I'm sure would make a fine t-shirt launcher. If you decide to do this MAKE SURE YOU USE PRESSURE RATED PVC! I can not stress this point enough. If you want pictures or more detailed instuctions, just let me know.

Hope this helps.
