Now this is brilliant. Always wanted to try some kind of semi-auto potato cannon... love it!
Bruh its the hacksmith
Well, IIRC, yours isn't an automatic
Of course, you would, you're the Hacksmith
Didn't you already militarise ur cybertruck
@@racecargaming6996 can I eat you?I'm hungry right now
So we got some fire power, it had way more power without the cone on which surprised me. so I'm currently mounting it on the tank and plating up the sides so next video it will be done. Hope you've enjoyed this project as its been a beast.
yasss colin
Love ur vids keep it up man
lol
But they do have tanks with flamethrowers. Lol
I mean how just how do you get these ideas

@@user-lp3cf5yn5b no, Americans don’t eat potatoes as much as the Irish.
My senior design project took 3 months and didn't even work (overheated during the presentation). The rate at which you put out functioning inventions is absurd, this is the best of CZcams!
Well, it does take a long time. But yea, he knows what he is doing.
Completely agree Jason
Colin's skills are pretty amazing indeed. He has great ideas and masters so many tools and techniques.
pharmaceuticals
its not valid until you explain with white board.
i love how he hasn’t changed at all from when he wasn’t famous
When was he not famous? I've only found his channel recently but he was on TV in 2011
he has changed a bit in terms of presentation, and is more exuberant and manic now. I don't think he has changed his clothes though
That’s why I like to support him
I know people who get famous they change so much.
I’ve watched his content for a 4 or 5 years but it never gets old. So good.
What I like about these videos is the solidity of the prototypes. They look heavy and firm. Not like tin cans and cheap plastic. It looks expensive and I can feel the weight and quality. It's very satisfying to see. I can only imagine how Collin feels himself with them.
I love it when Colin laughs like a mad man
Plot twist: He doesn't just laugh LIKE one, he IS one :P

This is why I love this channel - Colin is always teaching himself new things to finish a crazy project, and is putting on show for his audience. Everything is new and fresh on this channel.
I've been watching for years and I've noticed that Colin doesn't remain stagnant at all. He learns new camera tricks, editing skills and teaches himself how to use all sorts of new gizmos to bring us something awesome to watch!
I'd like to underline the "new" part of this, mechanical engineering naturally overlaps with electrical engineering in plenty of ways, I mean at 2:50 he's got beefy power cables flipping electrical solenoids. But a full microcontroller/Arduino driving a staged relay board is a whole other kettle of fish, he's completely crossed disciplines to get it done, he got into NERD CODE
This man is a pure genius
Ur right his channel is da best
Colin, you're a brilliant maker and someone I admire. I subscribe to plenty of channels but you're someone I actually admire.
That being said, I would love if you had a "behind the scenes" channel, or anything that might give those of us who are interested more insight into your design and testing. Your videos are polished gems, just like your inventions. However, every engineer knows that there is an unimaginable amount of work and obstacles behind each of these products in terms of research, design, component selection, etc. I don't know if you even have the time and I know plenty of what you do is confidential because of contracts with your sponsors, but I'd love to see your design process for something like this. I'd love to know more about the software you use, who you collaborate with on designs if anyone, what designs you develop that never come to fruition, etc etc etc. I think you have more to offer to those of us who want to know, and it could even be lucrative.
Thanks for doing what you do. I absolutely love your videos.
That sounds like a Patreon I'd actually sign up for!
I agree ❤
You're teaching engineers all over the world how to love, Colin. Thanks so much for your goddamn mood! It's inspiring!
Attitude is Everything!

"you don't find flamethrowers on Tanks"
*Churchill Crocodile has entered the chat*
will hughes my thought exactly 😂
Yep and a very sucessful one too! SO much so that 9/10 times it didnt even need use the flame thrower. The enemy just fled in terror or straight up surrendered, even the SS.
And yet, the most normal looking of 'The Funnies'.
@@justandy333 the best weapons are those you don't have to use, in that regard the churchill crocodile was very successful :)

If one day a wheeled recon tank is the build. A revolver breach T-shirt cannon should be the gun. From joke shirts to the tshirt version of a Paisley or simply red shirts with bang stenciled on it would be pure fun.
Since it shoots apples, it should rightly be called the "Newton cannon".
lmao
That is actually a good idea
a better use for that name is when he masters gravity and weaponises it

"Most over-engineered potato cannon the internet has ever seen"

Colin: _Builds a cannon for his personal tank._
Me: "Hey, he's got new carpet in his shed."
The old one acquired huge oil stains from the oil leak while making the tank hydraulics. It's in one of the tank build videos.
had to rewind and check lol
@@olmostgudinaf8100 Well there was a lot more that happened to that carpet, but I guess it being completely soaked with oil was the main reason to change it...

joking aside I'm not sure what this is classed as, I know a normal cannon thats over 2" bore and under 24" long is a catagory 5 firearm and impossle to own leagally without very special licences. if its within these dimentions then its classed as a shotgun and can be held on a SGC. Technically he could be arrested and given a mandatory 5 year jail sentence
@@Jack-hg1hq he already got in a lot of trouble and arrested in 2010 for his antics. I think this one, if he didn't actually get a license to make this, is going to be worse...

Colin: "You don't see flamethrowers on tanks."
Panzer III Flammenwerfer: "Am I a joke to you?"
Dont forget the churchill Crocodile. Had a hull mounted flame thrower instead of a machine gun and had a cart that it towed behind it.
And multiple Sherman tanks in the Pacific had a flamethrower installed next to the main gun or had the cannon replaced with a flamethrower altogether.
Haha I came down here to comment this. And the Croc ^^
Laughs in KV 8
You see, a flamethrower throws flame. A flammenwerfer werfs flammen. A subtle but important difference.
This guy has more enthusiasm than Bill Nye and the building knowledge of the Hacksmith
And far less politically motivated.
This is awesome, it looks like a space age sci-fi cannon! I would suggest one minor adaption. Switch the sequence around so it really is semi-automatic. The order would then be: fire, reload. Once the button is pressed again, it once again fires, then reloads.
This makes me think of the "How did you spend lockdown?" meme with the father and kids. Colin would be there saying "I made a Semi-automatic Potato Cannon" and the kids'd be like "f**cking legend"
he also made an amphibious tank to mount it on.
Can't forget that bit.

"You don't find flame throwers in tanks."
Even if that were true, it's not a valid reason to not put one on. In fact, it would seem to be a reason to do it.
As soon as he said it I hurled myself towards the comments to see if someone had already actually-ied him. I knew it! XD And I couldn't agree more!
There’s the Churchill Crocodile. That was a flame throwing tank in WW2
Tanks don't have flamethrowers??????

Nuclear fusion not fission. People already figured out the main reason fusion wasn't working was because they were trying to make the reactors too dang big. There is a company called Helion that already has a working fusion reactor the size of a shipping container that produces 50MWH or something like that.
In case no one has let you know, they actually did put flamethrowers on tanks. This was done by most major powers in WWII, and saw use on both European fronts as well as in the Pacific. They were really good for clearing out areas with thick vegetation or large concentrations of enemy infantry. They were also really good at deterring enemy soldiers from trying to get on the tank to disable it with explosives. Flamethrowers weren't standard issue for tanks, but they were common enough to be well documented.
They were also good for taking out pill boxes
... im speechless to how good you are at making the future into reality
I wonder how clever Colin is? Is this difficult to build or very difficult to build. I know zero about building stuff, his work is extremely neat and pleasing to the eye! The real question is is Colin a genius? Let's vote. I have watched 90 percent of his videos and just about everyone of them are very impressive. 1.4 million views in 24 hours, speak about impressive.
