DIY Potato Cannons

4 Star Review
DIY Potato Cannons Logowww.DiyPotatoCannons.com has a very nice set of potato cannon plans! When I first heard about Potato cannons, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Would this thing really work? Would it be easy to build? Would it be fun to fire? Would I learn anything? Well… as you can see by our five star rating, the answer to all of these questions is “YES”. In fact, this diy potato gun project is a lot more fun than we imagined, it was easy to build and we even learned a little bit about PVC pipes and the physics of combustion. This website, diy potato cannons, offers you the ability to download diy potato cannon plans for less than five bucks. Seriously, their plans are only $4.99 and they are some of the most well written assembly instructions we have ever seen. They step you easily through the assembly process, they include tons of pictures to show you exactly what to do, and they even include a shopping list. All the parts you need can be purchased from a local hardware store, and it’s amazing how you can turn these ordinary parts into a fully functioning potato cannon. You simply put the potato in your barrel, add fuel, hit the ignition button and BOOM, you send your potato high into the sky. Be careful though, this cannon is not a toy, and you really need to read and follow the safety instructions carefully. The cannon can send you potato for several hundred yards in the air, so it packs quite a punch. Build you very own potato cannon today!
