When we published our redbull firing pneumatic cannon, we got a quite quick email from [Ryan] at Minot Makers. Apparently, they were working on a redbull cannon as well. Theirs, however, has a totally different use. They mean for this to terminate a redbull with a gentle arc enabling you to just catch as well as drink it. They appear to be firing over a relatively short distance, so this isn’t any type of a lot more hazardous than, say, tossing a drink to a buddy a few feet away.

Their technique to managing the barrel size/can size difference was to develop a piston cannon instead of a sabot. This easily likewise enables for simple firing of quite much anything that will fit! [Ryan] explained some future plans to provide this an r/c platform enabling it to drive around at events as well as provide beverages. That would be quite cool.
