Ever tried building your own railgun? Now that's cool!
Me and some friends did it. It took almost three months to build the monster, but when it was finished we could fire 9 inch nails (no, not the group, heh) completely through 18 mm. plywood. This was with the help of a 24V battery. When we plugged it into the electric mains, we could fire the nail completely through three seperate pieces of 18 mm. plywood. The pieces were seperated from eachother by aproximately 5 cm..
We didn't make any photo's because we made the monster on school. When the teachers found out what we had constructed from schoolmaterial, we had to dismantle it immediately.
There are masses of sites on the on the net with good guides how to build such a device.
