    She knows I used to do some pretty wild things, so this isnt really that bad. Plus, she knows where the closest hospitals are. :D

    that will help with pressure, but not the CFM. Im gonna take a golf ball to Home depot, and see if I can find some PVC pipe that will give a tight seal. Im also gonna need another electric igniter, and some hairspray. :D

    I cant find anything in the CC&R's about anything I have been doing. I have been abideing to the noise code, and staying on my property, or the common areas. There are some "grey" areas of the CC&R's in which my devices "could" be in violation of, BUT, Im not going to concern my self with that at this point in time. :D

    Yeah, the potato creates its own gas seal, maybe some sort of wadding under the golf would make that seal so you can get more oomff ?

    Maybe a piece of 3/4"-1" rigid foam insulation cut tight to the bore, sitting under the golf ball would seal it ?
    Like a shotgun wad.

    Thats similar to what Packerfan suggested. Im thinking of makeing a "mini" version of a spud gun. One that will blast out golf balls. Im working out the details right now.

    A simple, non-electric lantern starter (flint) will work also.
    Static Guard works better than hairspray...more range and doesn't gum up the chamber.
    Rifled barrels are available.
    So are clear ones so you can have a nice flame show at night.
    Luminous light stick juice poured down on top of the chambered potato makes the coolest potato tracer you ever saw.
    Not that I've ever done anything like this :D
