Potato Gun

Potato Air Pen Gun an simple homemade toy airgun made just from a ball pen or water pipe, a chopstick, some potato.

Most of the literature seems to favor a 1.5:1 ratio.  Burntlatke ventures to lower ratios.  Is there any objective white paper on this pressing topic?

if you have some good pictures of guys and their potato guns, I would love to see them.  A little self deprecation is a good thing

Bill is in fact an expert in this field and refers to his book. He knows potato guns. So many small and not so small boys and girls would like to make a potato canon or bazooka. This is taken from the Backyard Ballistics book. Not only is this a fun activity, but it also teaches you about physics. You need some PVC pipe, glue, a hacksaw, and, of course, some potatoes! You also need an igniter and some hairspray. The potato fires out with some force and speed so adult supervision is required....

I am not an NRA person.  But I do believe in my sovereign right to own and carry my potato guns where I please.  I put them in my trunk and cruise. I really have no clue what would happen if I my trunk was searched...and a cop saw three potato guns, hairspray, and a 5 pound bag of russets.

Ooooo. Step back, Jack. This one has the taser ignition. Not only that, this dude give you desert decal instructions and ways to camo your potato gun. This potato gun tutorial is pure instruction, in two parts. Kudos. Watch this nifty weapon hack to learn how to build a potato gun launcher with interchangeable barrels. This potato gun "spudzooka" with interchangeable barrels is powered by taser ignition. It also resembles those bazookas and RPGs causing so much havoc on the world today.
