Those are some amazing videos so far, especially the balloon ones.

I want to suggest using your air cannon to shoot a full aerosol can. I'd also like to suggest that can be a can of Easy Cheese or whipped cream. I don't know if Easy Cheese is technically an aerosol or not, but its definitely pressurized in some way.
Oh and if you feel like it you can video it, too.

The point is, I shot a 1" ball bearing through one of those with a large air cannon and it was amazing.

New videos posted. The air gun's barrel exploded a second time, so that's out of commission until I get a metal barrel. Until then, I set up an 8000uF 300V cap bank and took some shots with that. See the first post.

Once I get the gun working I'll try an aerosol can. Shaving foam or simlar should be interesting.

Unfortunately I don't have a YAG laser.

Like the shootinf of the Ps and cd drives, especialy since its such a clean straight shot then it hits the motor assembly of the 1st cd drive then angles up and hits the 2nd drive. The wire discharge vids are also very impressive especially vid #3 since you see the initial discharge and the explosive results then you see the wires touch 2 more times after the initial explosion and they still discharge with some power. Fantastic videos.

beastly videos, but my computer freezes for some reason when i try to watch them with firefox or IE. AOL worked well enough, though.
