Well  for starters, my name is Zeb Deming. I live in Mighigan, really small town too, it's not all that bad though. What do i do for a living you ask, well i'm an ASE Master Certified Auto Technician. I work in a small independent auto repair shop. Well for fun I, well you're at my air cannon page aren't you so you can guess what I do in my spare time, I also like to tinker with just about anything, go hunting in the fall, if i can find any time, and go paintballing in the summer, so long as it isn't that hot. Oh yea this is my first full web creation (page) i've put a couple of pics up on geocities for the spudgun e-mail group to see, but as Dan Thames said on his web site "I spend my time working on guns not web pages", so I plan to keep this simple, not all flashy with animated pics and all that other stuff.

		I haven't been working on Air Cannons all that much lately, I've been busy with other things, like building a Battlebot that I am going to try and compete with in an upcomming Battlebot event. Even so I am planing on building an air cannon for it. It will run off of co2 and by Battlebot rules the projectile has to be tethered so I'm working on a tether that works kinda like a fishing reel using cable. The barrel will be about 2 feet long and 1.75" i.d. have a custom built aluminum valve and shoot about a  1 lb steel projectile. The chamber I am planing will be about 33 cubic inches and be pressureized to about 300 psi. Just some quick specs on it for anyone interested.
				New 10-2-01 The Battlebot turned into a BIG mistake, had too much money into it and didn't have everything bought. But one thing I did have bought was a 4.5" bore x 6" stroke double acting air cylinder and solenoid actuated pneumatic directional control valve, it'll work good to actuate a custom built steel valve for the 20 gallon compressor tank, I haven't got very far with the PVC valve for it, as a matter of fact I haven't had enough time to do any shooting this summer, I had one of my best friends die in July and getting around to do anything since has been difficult. But I think I'll get around to welding it all up this winter.
