You can get the same results with a rubber band and a Y shaped stick.
no you can get even better results
A stick with rubber band or flexible rope between its edge will do too
yes you can, but does were those results achieved with a railgun?
@@rcx2699 Despite that I think the railgun was an important scientific advancement, that served the purpose of cool science fiction portrayals of it.
Or just switch that paintball gun back to full power
Thanks a lot for the plug mate! I was going to take the challenge and make it stronger, but then you said we could go to jail! In any case if you like to serve some time, just add magnets to the mix!

:D No worries! Misspelling my name(s) is a curse I carry to the end! I wish you weren't on the other side. There are some projects that could use your expertise.
I like where this is going... 🤔😀
Well, for it to be considered a firearm, it has to have a "barrel." So an argument might be made that a railgun doesn't have a barrel, it has a parallel set of rails which do not meet the definition of a barrel.
Assuming a "barrel" is a metallic tube typically used on firearms. And a "tube" is a cylinder used for transporting objects. And a cylinder =/= parallel rails.

Hmmm, a mortal kombat thing? Like, kitanas knife fan or scorpios harpoon? Lol i dunno. BTW thanks for the gift ;)
Ughhh, all my education as an Electrical Engineer is screaming at me as I watch this video 😂
4:30 I can't explain it, it just feels like that rail design wouldn't work well. Is that wrong? Like the current could path through the rail in a way that could decrease the tangential force.....
Tell me EE education says about that!
@@tyty8484 would you mind explaining that further?
@@runningchild8052 the way that the rail is a semi-circle, my intuition tells me that the path electricity will take will be "the path of least resistance." So what i imagine is that it is either going to jump across the tiny gap so you're only getting a pinch of that tang force. OR even going from that tiny gap and wrapping around the circle and back thus increasing the distance between the current direction changes.
From what I can tell, the best shape would be the opposite of this. The rails being 2 parallel cyclinders and the projectile being a cut-out in between. Like a rounded I-Beam.
@@tyty8484 yup, you can tell this is correct based off the fact they needed to use a paintball gun to shoot it. i wouldn't be surprised if they just had a paintball gun with a high pressure canister to make it look like they were accelerating it with their setup, b/c they couldn't get it to work. lol
I like how it took the military decades but it took him one video
For those in electrical engineering, it's a fancy name for a linear motor that lets one of its pieces escape.
That would be a coilgun, no?
@@andrefilipe6757 The linear motor is literally 2 straight wires and a bar connecting them, the direction of the current determines where the bar goes, the value of the current determines how fast the bar accelerates. In a rail gun the wires are the 2 copper channels and the bar is the projectile.
A coilgun is something the people in this channel also made, it is a series of coils wrapped around a tube where you have to time the activation and deactivation of the magnetic field generated by the coils in order to accelerate a ferrous projectile. Doesn't require as high a voltage, but the circuitry is more complicated with a lot of fine tuning required.
yeah exactly, capacitor pushes it instantly through a large current. And the moving part escapes
Buy one of the used projectiles from the video! www.ebay.ca/itm/222865692130?ViewItem=&item=222865692130 (2nd listing)
Also if you're wondering why it didn't seem as powerful as it could be -- that's because we had to limit how powerful it was to remain inside legal limitations. A video isn't worth going to jail over.
Add rifling to the gun so it could go faster

One correction for you, the Navy has been working on railguns since at least the 70's. I worked on the Army's version back in the 80's.
And here's a couple of tips for you.
1. Purge the barrel with He just before the shot. The lighter gas offers less resistance and will increase velocity.
2. Try a lighter projectile. Al can be accelerated to a higher speed due to less mass. It's that velocity squared component that does the real damage.
3. Cut a vertical slot into the back end of the projectile. The current through the projectile will force the tabs apart and give better contact with the rails and less rail ablation.
4. Make an inductor from heavy wire to spread the pulse out. You should be able to optimize the pulse width to the time that the projectile will be in the barrel.5
5. Increase the pressure of the injector. But you already know that.
Hello, Hacksmith! I'm a huge fan of you and I've been watching your videos for a long time. I have 3 questions for you. When did you make your first build? How and why did "The Hacksmithing Company" form? How much time (on average) does it take to make a project (not a 1-day build)?
"Perfect for a school project"

These dudes' chances of surviving an zombie apocalypse are probably off the charts.

Mateo rawr very true
With this railgun, not so much
@dangerous Than this railgun, yes. Than their entire arsenal, hell no
So, what I got from this video was "zap zap make bullet fast." I like your funny words magic man.
You can increase your firing output and projectile velocity by using an oscillating power supply(modified sine inverter will do the trick) and incorporating a micro generator for faster recharge.
I'm designing a fully automatic man portable railgun and those two design modifications will make a serious difference.

The rail gun almost reached the speed of the alien from assassanation classroom
The Hacksmith always looks like the happiest person alive when he gets to test his projects
true... lol
With the capacity of that bank, you'd get better performance if you'd have made a multi stage coil gun rather than a rail gun.
Hexx Bombastus kinda like fallout 4s gauss rifle?
@@rustyy270 yeah. I've seen some coil guns that can reach bullet speeds, which is scary because the projectiles have to be ferrous metals which typically aren't as squishy as lead is, so you get ricocheting and shattering at lethal speeds...
But with steel core ammo and a cheap rifle from a pawn shop you can achieve even better results and it can be carried easily
@@grahamlopez6202 that defeats the purpose of building a solid state weapon.
that is impossible, the faster the bullet, the faster you need to discharge capacitors, which speed of discarhe is very limited because of high coil inductance. You will need at least 4-8 meters long coil gun(with perfect components) to archieve near pistols bullet speed.
Please do a redesign of this one into a UNSC halo railgun!!! It would be really fun to redesign some of your older project which dont fit any superhero/game weapon into one!
12:52 that has to be the most painful clean up ever!!
Sponsor=100x better build quality
Oh the wonders of funding
16 35F capacitors... you guys are insane.
By the way, for anyone who would possibly think doing this at home could possibly be a good idea, normal capacitors (~10uF, about a million times less powerful than this) can explode like firecrackers if misused. You can imagine what one of these would do.
Michael Cullen depends on the type of capacitor your talking about foil capacitors don't explode they just pop and catch fire and plate capacitors don't either they are just a piece of plastic with copper sheets on either side. They don't explode that's why they use them in high voltage projects like Tesla coils.
Michael Cullen
Not to take away from the impressive size of this cap bank, but those definitely aren’t 35F caps. Probably 3500uF, which for 16 in parallel is still a whopping 56mF which is about 1000 times most electrolytics you would find in everyday electronics.
If you open a printer adapter they have one of these capacitors inside with a tiny little electric board I don't have to worry about my printer exploding do I.
19:08 goose will remember that
We need a collab between the Hacksmith and Styropyro.

When I think about railgun, my mind suddenly show Misaka Mikoto
That's cool how the charging up before firing is a thing. I always thought games and movies didn't make sense when something had to charge up because it's not like it's going to recharge the battery without being plugged in. But now that I get what is going on that's cool.
I have been leaving the idea of a rail gun in your comments for years. I’m so excited that you are now doing one, a coil gun may be even more interesting.
Suggestion: Build parts for powerful railgun, rent boat on ocean, go 24mi (39Km) to get to international waters, fly pirate flag and "go fishing" with rail gun. ;)
Yo

you do know that would not work right?

Caleb Champion why?
Good luck on your way to developing the Rorsch Mk 1!
It would have been cool to see the speed of the projectile, and at different voltages.
Doesn't voltage not affect the speed of the railgun?

I honestly dont know how it took humanity this long to figure out a railgun. Such a simple thing really.
It takes incredibly strong electro magnets?????? Not that simple?
I'm waiting to see the robbers faces when they break open the front door and see him holding this...
Did you guys build that thing to look like the railgun from fallout 4 on purpose? Because this is more than 80% similarity! (i like it!)
Dexter Nexus Gauss Rifle*
lxeonx 05 the gauss rifle is a railgun
@@caylindelacruz2641 I hope you're pronouncing it 'gouse'
Caylin Dela Cruz nope, a railgun uses the magnetic field generated by the current passing through the rails and the projectile to accelerate the projectile, and the gauss rifle uses a number of coils to accelerate the projectile
Caylin Dela Cruz and also, the gauss rifle is much more efficient than the railgun
