It won't ignite until the gas/air ratio is just right so you get a much louder boom.Entomophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09953584069626334847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283325182904225936.post-46599601014260728212016-11-30T08:31:14.537-05:002016-11-30T08:31:14.537-05:00Hi!

If you use a touch hole instead of the flint, timing doesn't matter as much. The cannon won't fire until the acetylene fills the cannon and starts to exit the touch hole.Entomophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09953584069626334847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283325182904225936.post-29958390609921278762013-02-18T12:52:03.425-05:002013-02-18T12:52:03.425-05:00How much Carbide did you use and how long did you ...How much Carbide did you use and how long did you wait until setting it off?deltafour1212https://www.blogger.com/profile/02145777397913828170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283325182904225936.post-55356310487351710902011-12-11T08:18:37.042-05:002011-12-11T08:18:37.042-05:00Believe me, a gatling gun is on my list of future ...Believe me, a gatling gun is on my list of future projects.Entomophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09953584069626334847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283325182904225936.post-3836138743393531832011-12-01T09:39:14.120-05:002011-12-01T09:39:14.120-05:00PS: Uncle Bag wants you to make a gatling gun.
