Slow days @ The Shop......Potato Launching

[Busta Nut]

A few years ago, my boss and I were looking at our bead seater and thought it would be great at launching stuff.....a quick visit to the hardware store and voila!!!

 

 

It's been away for a while and it got slow here the other day, so we went to the store for some potatoes and busted out the cannon!!

We did the same thing and some other stuff.

Uh oh.

 

Slow day at shop for myself.

 

That means there is a bead-blaster that's not getting any use and a tech with nothing better to do.

 

 

 

:devil:

Go for the confetti cannon... it will make someone shit their pants. Just don't get fired..

 

That shit came out like a rocket and the dude was pretty pissed at first, mostly cause he almost shit himself.

Obviously not with gas powered propellant, but we used to do similar things on my boat (read: submarine) when we were out on deployments. We would save up or steal from other departments their 3-hole punch scrap (called dit-dots) and booby trap all sorts of things with them. Unsuspecting crew members would reach for something and trigger and explosion of 1000s of dit-dots straight to the face.

 

It was always war between other watch sections to come up with über elaborate ways to scare the shit out of each other with dit-dot bombs.
