I have been into potato cannons for quite some time as I am now retired. My
Spudzooka is a take down module with 3 barrels, one for potato's, one for D cell
batteries and a bigger barrel for bigger items. I use either hair spray or right
guard as the propellant. I use a 100,000V stun gun as the igniter. I can be
reached at mrfixer4u@yahoo.com
I used a 1/2 inch valve for my loading of hair
spray. Pull the lever down, spray, push lever up, Pow, how neat ! I'm
69 years old and just love it. First time out I almost shot the neighbors
garage window out three lots away. I also installed the ignigter in a
screw out plug. that also works great. Dick in Appleton, Wi. Dick

all the Cannons/guns/pistols I have ever made. Attached is a few Pics of Pistols
I’ve made..
Here is my creation from back when I was in college. Soon after I went into the Marines and got to fire the AT4 rocket launcher. I love this website. The pics are great. I want to start a new project now!

Hi, Could you put my spud gun on your Website my name is billy from Blandford forum
UK with my 8Ltr Combustion chamber built from an old stainless commercial water softener and 30 mm barrel fired with a car coil and two champion spark plugs welded in the side.
You can reach Billy at mailto:m3wvh@hotmail.com
Sending you a picture of me and my guns. They are made of ABS because there is no PVC
here in Norway. The small one has 32 mm barrel, and the big one has 50 mm barrel.
They shoot potatoes about ca 200 meters. I use Axe and starter gas as propellant.
I have sold some, but potato cannons are not so popular here in Norway. I like them very much. And I use them almost every day.
In the winter it is problem with the ignition of the gas, so I have stopped using them in the winter time. But the rest of the year it is spud gunning every day. :-).

I am a mechanical engineering student from Munich (Germany). Here is a picture
of my simple spudgun. To contact Bernhard email to: mailto:wagnerb@fsmb.mw.tum.de
My name is Kyle and my friends name is Chris. This idea first came to us after we saw a historic cannon on TV. From then on we began planning the biggest gun we've made. This gun will shoot over 400 yards and is to big to hold hence the wheels. It consists of a 6 inch chamber that is about 2 feet long, from there it is broken down to a 4 inch chamber then to a 3 inch barrel that is about 5 feet long. The ignition system is a BBQ igniter that is extended away from the chamber for safety reasons. At the end of the
barrel it is magnaported to reduce sound and kickback. But don't let this fool
you, it's louder than a shotgun!!! It is truly a work of art.To contact Kyle

This spudgun was built by Shaun from Australia he is 16 and this is the third spud gun
he has made. He shot a ball bearing into his foot by accident with it and it left an instant bruise for about a
week. Shaun can be contacted at manted01@hotmail.com
This spudgun has a stock that I made from an old crutch so you could look down the barrel.
I've put on the crutch a flat peace of PVC so that in the future I can put some stickers on or put some advertising on.
for more info you can contact owner at SPUDGUNNER018@aol.com
This is my kick but spud gun, uses arid and can completely decimate a plastic mailbox in a split second. I used
PVC and a BBQ lighter, and rear fuel loading. Cool muzzle loading action and stylish handgrip (a medicine bottle and some duct tape). I love this
thing. You can contact him at, Heinekenboy09@aol.com
My spud gun is completely home-made. it uses a 15" X 4" SCH40 PVC combustion chamber with 4" female adapter w/ screw cap, it has a 4" X 2" reducer with 4"
of 2" pvc and then a 2" female adapter. this allows for multiple barrels on one combustion chamber.
I use a BBQ igniter on the handle wired to 2 machine screws inside the chamber with a 1/4 inch gap, it arcs very nicely. I
use propane for fuel. I do not use a metering system even though it is much more
precise metering. You can contact Wyatt Koch <sprokus1@yahoo.com
My name is Kalle Suurenmoinen and I live in Finland. The gun is mounted on a broken small rifle, has electric ignition system, laser pointer and
electric fan system to refresh the combustion chamber with fresh
air, everything works with three buttons in trigger. Barrel is removable and can be locked tightly and unlocked to reload from the front.

My husband heard about spud guns at work and decided to try and make one. His first creation went together quickly and used Right Guard. Attached is a picture of

A friend and I have recently built our first DPSL
(deodorant propelled spud launcher) and we would just like to share
with you our pride and joy. We stay in South Africa where we
do things a little different because Africa is not a place

to 1200 feet at the right angle using deodorant as fuel.

My name is Kyle and I live in Michigan. I first heard about spud guns by word of mouth, so
I decided to create my own. Since then I have created a couple of spudguns, but this one is my favorite. The "terminator" is not the most powerful gun on the market
but is by far the most creative in my opinion.
