we got the antenna launcher together and tested it out without tethering the ball with a string... maybe we should have.
Lets just say it works. ..lol

Here are a couple vids.

My buddy chris has caught 100MPH slap shots in hockey before and he says the ball was going way over 100MPH.

That's awesome. I'm working on something too. Wasn't sure if you'd get to it in time. Nice work. :D

I like it!!! I can think of several things that could be usefull for.

The one that comes to mind first is nailing that damn Mockingbird that lives in a tree outside my window. That bitch stays up all night chirpping. I swear that bird hasn't slept going on 4 months now.

I find an airsoft rifle set to full auto does a great job of shutting 'em up! :shock: :mrgreen: :lol:
