Deus Ex Machina

Video Title :	Deus Ex Machina
Description :	this cannon was a contest entry at spudfiles.com so thats why it says vote for deus ex machina at the end Deus Ex Machina (deus ex mâchinâ) is a Latin phrase that when directly translated it means "god out of machine" the phrase is used to describe divine intervention of the gods or a supernatural change in fate this is the name of my spud gun it's the first spud gun to use ejecting cartridges technical stuff: the gun is pneumatically operated and is connected to an air compressor for pneumatic tools or regulated CO2, it uses a sprinkler valve and a blowgun valve modified my me not remains open normally so air from the input goes into the sprinkler valve shuts the diaphragm while filling the chamber/stock with compressed air and when squeezed it closes off the input and releases pressure from the sprinkler valve port making the valve open the receiver works similar to a bolt action rifle with a fixed magazine, and the cartridges eject when the rim hits a bolt screwed into the opposite side of the ejection port so they flick out of the port you can learn more by searching the name at spudfiles.com links: http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/deus-ex-machina-t7864.html http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=69587& the 3way concept by established in clide's gun: http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=160& very general how to on loading mechanism http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/deus-ex-machina-how-to-t8418.html
