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!
I love your videos! Sorry for calling you Electro-GO-Boom I might be slightly dyslexic, or perhaps a psychic for when you inevitably -go- boom in a video!
The project ended up being a lot harder than we imagined, you're video certainly helped us out!
Poop all at once?or as it passes ? Opto circuit!!! Great Scott!! Luv u guys!!!
: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.

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

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.
Come to ohio and lets mount that to one of my boats... hahaha I want to see that again with 6 more of those capacitor banks!

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

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
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.
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.
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.
Now, I'm not doubting your claim of a 36 farad capacitor bank... all I'm saying is that you had 16x 3300uF capacitors in parallel (=0.528 farads)
P.S. Still love it!

Pretty much.
the Hacksmith love your vids
Most home built EM guns are sort of disappointing. If it were easy to make a lethal EM propelled firearm, they would be in widespread use. TBH, if that paintball gun was dialled up to max, it would be way more lethal with ball-bearings. Hence why paintball guns use calibres that aren't in line with common ball-bearing sizes. It avoids people getting a cheap and potentially lethal weapon with no collection of ID or licences. And keeps the heat off the sport of paintball from groups looking for someone to blame for making weapons available.
Though oddly, in the US at least, airguns with lethal projectile energy are not considered guns, so such considerations aren't needed anyhow. If it's not propelled by gunpowder, it's not a gun by US law. Most other countries define firarms by the projectile energy. IE projectile mass and velocity.
if you see someone pointing a rail gun at you, throw in some water.
Or toss a rock. Probably just as damaging. :P
by the way, the call the "disposable casing" Discarding Sabot
I honestly dont know how it took humanity this long to figure out a railgun. Such a simple thing really.

Thank you for the video.
I believe that this qualifies as a gauss gun more than a railrun. A railgun has a physical carriage that the projectile sits and slides back and forth on when it gets moved by the magnetic field. A gauss gun has no moving parts and less friction but requires more power to operate
This was still a cool project no matter what you call it tho ;)
No, that's a real railgun. A gauss gun would have coils. Railguns have rails. I worked on railgun research for the Army back in the SDI days.
@@snoig1 ah okay thanks for the clarification - its still cool no matter what

Lol
Hey guys-- if you build a controller with optical interruptor and give it half the capacitors when it's fired and the other half once it passes about 25 percent of the barrel length, it'll shoot it faster.
You will have to have a pretty good fast high-current switch, but you can use an SCR. What happens otherwise is that you run out of current before the projectile leaves the barrel.

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!
Everyone asking the reason/advantage just go back to the beginning where he talks about the navy developing them.
What is worse than having a bunch of munitions that could blow up in your boat? Munitions that require explosives to launch.
You can have the same amount of “fire power” with half the explosives in your munitions holds
You don’t need a large brass or steel case to hold the primers/powder to launch your projectile And you don’t have to have the massive breeches to contain the explosions launching the projectiles, reducing overall weight.
Richard Harding The question would be that would it be worth it right now and the years to come during its development. Currently if we were to implement a railgun weapons system to a ship all the advantages given by the railgun would be outweighed by the disadvantages.
The weight of the batteries and the gun's mechanisms itself may even just be more than the weight of a conventional weapons system which really doesn't 'reduce overall weight'
Derp Master it has better range and accuracy plus jas a much much higher bullet velocity meaning its easier to aim plus the loading process is much easier all and all its an improvement however this is likely something that wont be used for At least 10 to 15 years because of the cost of outfitting ships with these guns so untill its improved on more it wont see much use like that suit of power armour darpa is developing the only real disadvantage is the cost
Richard Harding not only that, but after 2 miles, the railgun has more velocity than you everyday battleship heavy guns.
Richard Harding actually 0 explosives they rely exclusively on kenetic energy to do damage
Energy isn't much of an issue either. Best ships use nuclear and, and some new ones are switching over.
Nothing is more horrible than a fire on a ship. Trust. Less munitions the better.

Interesting, I guess that's why the slow mo of the projectiles coming out of the gun weren't firing straight?
Everyone: Wow the railgunner (roblox troop) is so good!
Military: well if we had enough resources or just making it simple we would have it!
Hacksmith: ill make it.
Military: You will?!
I can't not be disapointed about it not being more powerfull than a full pressured paintball gun. But it is really cool that you putted your time and efford into this so that I don't have to.
i think it is a paintball gun...
Hunter Davis If it didnt go through the plastic board game, It is not going through people.
Red Point it could kill them though from the electricity. But it's not going through people ur right
So do Canadian gun laws specify firearm-status by velocity of the bullet, not by the means it shoots? Because here in Finland if I'm not mistaken a firearm is a firearm if it uses combustion as a means of accelerating the projectile, otherwise it's a "toy". And there's no limit to the size of toys >:D
Yes.
i think that over here in canada, you don't need a firearms license for it unless it shoots a projectile at over 500 feet per second or that produce over 12 ftlbs of power.
BlakOrkk There are some minor restrictions. You cannot buy a 6.35mm air rifle without a permit of some sort. But I don't take that as a problem as the smaller calibers pack some nice punch too. On the oyher hand, unlike Germany, we have no limits to airsoft-guns' power/firing modes, which is nice.
Suomi mainittu
NovaPenisVideot Plz xD
The casing around the projectile in the us navy railgun is called a sabot btw.
The casing around any projectile that has a diameter smaller than the calibre of the barrel is called a sabot.
This is why this type of technology is more viable on ships.
4:10 Ian looks like he found the perfect toy in a toy shop
Who needs gunpower when you got magnets!
Goldlink567 i need gunpowder because I can shoot semen at a higher speed
Some rail guns use gunpowder as a booster/ starter for the projectile
14:11 ow
Considering it doesn't even have magnets sure..... It uses electrical flow through rails bro...
Take it to Texas and run it at full power
Take it to drivetanks in Texas and have them set up some cars to shoot at it shoot the tank and rail gun simultaneously
If you want to shoot or blow something up TX an LA are where you want to go.
