AIR POWERED TREE ACCESS - just gets higher

[Stihl123]

Just thought you might be interested in this! Pump up to 10 bar (or lower) jam throw bag down, aim and fire. Happily fires throw bag 50m upright! Every time I fire it I run out of throw line!

Got the idea from treestuff and made my own! :001_tt2:

is it any good against cats?

What's it made of ? 10 bar sounds a lot, 150 psi in what looks like some plastic waste pipe

[Stihl123]

yeah, its good for anything, as long as you hit it!!

 

i am an office monkey for a plumbing and heating company which also do sprinklers (but a tree monkey at weekends!:001_tt2:)

 

its made from fire sprinkler pipe which can take about 12 bar MAX!!

but only safe to 10

 

its just mega expensive pipe!

I've just seen the original one in action and found yours.... any chance of letting me know the size of pipe you used for the barrel as you've obviously got it right.
