    Re: gun1 project —Randy Anchikoski
   Yup, spell checker found 'bold' and it is indeed a word. The word should have been 'bolt'. As for firing objects, I suppose it could be done except my barrel is non-hollow. I'd have to devise a different system. Randy -- Randy Anchikoski (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)
   
        Re: gun1 project —David Arnon
   (...) If you like technic sets you probably have by now a big collection of technic engine cylinder heads and round engine pistons. I know I do. I don't like single purpose pieces and I tried to think of an alternate use for them. What I came up (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)  
   
        Re: gun1 project —Randy Anchikoski
     Hmmm. Sounds like a great idea. I've tried making pressurized peashooters (actually, spitwad) with LEGO without much luck. I'll give that some thought. Thanks! Randy -- Randy Anchikoski randy@viclug.tzo.com "David A." (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

        Re: gun1 project —David Arnon
   (...) Well, it could be done, but then the barrel seems useless - it'll only stop the piston with friction. The long barrel is only an advantage when you use compressed air (in a pneumatic gun) or other compressed gases (in a regular gun). I really (...)
