the barrel is about 4 feet long... made out of the same pvc... and i beveled the edge so its sharp and the potatoes are cut to seal in the barrel when i jam them in...
and then i use a lantern sparker to light the fuel
fuel i use butane from an aerosol can... works great... and doesnt gum the chamber up like hairspray...

My brother-in-law and his friends made one just like this, maybe a little longer in the barrel. He and my sister have a house on the water, and one Thanksgiving day, after dinner, we all went out on the deck and watched them shoot potatoes out over the bay. They're all firemen, go figure.
