Re: pic: T-Shirt Launcher, still needs a chasis

How could a T-Shirt ever Jam inside? And even if it did wouldn't the air still be able to pass through the T-Shirt.

Before I got involved with anything FRC my buddies and myself used to build air powered pottato cannons that used very similar parts. The only difference is that we had our air storage chamber wrap around our barrel and their was a bell reducer at the end of that with the barrel sticking out of it. The only issue that we ever encountered was once the glue let loose and the barrel slid out. This happened well before we ever hit our highest PSI level.

And speaking of PSI level the highest we ever put through the PVC was nearly 200 psi. Now in saying that we were using solenoids so that the cannon would be well away from us as we both pressurized and fired it so that if something did blow up we would be inside of the polebarn looking out a door or window.
