Throwline launcher

Take some orders Tim and make a little bit of money for yourself [emoji2]. I'd be interested

Here’s a video of me firing it into a Scott’s pine at home. Crotch we got the string line through was around 20m up. Got it on the third go with about 90psi behind the bag. The way I have it set up it would take a 10-12oz throw bag.

Excellent,that's going to take all the fun out of throw lining ,fun being endless tangles and snagged lines !

How long does it take to re charge so to speak? 

[Alex O]

Foot pump normally so you can gauge the psi

This is a great post. First class Tim. I might have a dabble at this. I’m thinking small divers cylinder for charging though like the air gunners use with quick release fittings maybe ? 
Well done for the great detail in listing the items needed [emoji1303][emoji847]
Any supporting construction advice would be greatly received

If using a bike pump ( i do) you need a proper decent one rated for alot of psi like the sks rennkompressor 230psi. The cheap ones just break

It’s very simple to assemble. 
1. Order all the pipe fittings on the list

2. Order the threaded valves and 2 rolls of ptfe tape

3. Drill an 8mm hole in the end cap and bolt the tyre valve in

4. Wrap all the threaded parts of the pipe work with 12(ish) wraps of ptfe tape

5. Screw all the fitting together and tighten, charge with air and check for leaks. 
 

The fittings can only go in one place as the bits are different sizing. Any problems PM me and I’ll help out. 
Im sure other people will have ways to make this better. Please feel free to add any better points to the list

Also got a fairly decent bike pump from amazon for £22 which is rated to 220psi

anything over 12psi makes it a firearm.... just saying
