If you have the money it probably would be better to make a big rigid air tank in a backpack and regulate the air output. That'd get you more pressure more easily with more common parts.


I will try this, but it seems large and clumsy. For now, I will work on this idea and see if I can make the bladder by using tubing. Perhaps if someone bought tubing in bulk, we could all buy a foot or so for a price (the same way PETG is sold).

Alright, I will try it out. Thanks, and I'll tell you all how things turn out when I'm finished. Planning to mount in pvc when I'm done, probably with some sort of clip system that will be fabricated out of balsa.

Perhaps I can layer multiple bike innertubes together. Though, once again, I'm not sure how to do any of this. Apparently it's no small task.

I heard someone say you could make bladders out of 4 in PVC. Am I wrong?


Sounds fishy to me. A bladder is supposed to regulate the amount of air that goes out per shot--I don't see how PVC can do that. Perhaps they were saying you can use 4 in. PVC as casing for the bladder? Or maybe they meant they were using the PVC to hold air, then go to the bladder (like that guy with the backpack and powerclip).

In Topic: Big Bad Bow ?

08 November 2006 - 10:38 PM

I don't know if other people have had the same experience, but my Big Bad Bow is very picky about dart quality. I'm using a copper barrel. With my best darts I get 80 feet or so and with my worst darts I struggle to reach 30. I think a nite finder alone beats this thing. If read that if you really work on the nite finder you can get it up to bbb range. Just some things to think about.
