We made an air cannon at work and put a marble through the wall. Unfortunately it was the office wall. Luckily I wasn’t there at that point in time. So on that note I am in for at least one. ---

You could make a pretty simple one, two same side plates out of plate with a solid square stock base, the barrel could be 1" solid stock drilled out twice. ---

Tried making one today. First I used a BB but the smallest drill was .177" and the BB’s were like .173". I didn’t have any black powder so I took the powder out of a fire cracker lol. That was probably part of my problem. The BB kinda just plopped out of the barrel. I than drilled the hole larger for a larger object that would fit more snug in the whole. The object got stuck on the way out. Tomorrow I will actually bore the hole out to be just right. I would not recommend just a drilled hole because it leaves the inside wall way to rough. Edit: I’m just going to make something like this instead. After coming across these cannons it makes taking the powder out of fire crackers kinda pointless… ---
