Merry Christmas to all. Santa failed to bring me a pneumatic ball antenna launching gun. Does anyone out there have one that they are willing to part with? Or perhaps a rental or secured loan? I real

oh! A grenade launcher! I bet you could rent a cherry picker for a month for what that contraption would cost (including medical bills and lawsuits). _______________________________________________ _

I built one of these with some friends when I was 12 for Field Day. Very simple, pretty safe, and very cheap. Parts in total under $30. You'll find that's considerably cheaper than renting a cherry p

One of our local radio clubs has built some of the compressed air/tennis ball launchers to sell at ham swap meets over the last year or so, as a club fundraiser. They've been well received - I bought
