Hi guys,
My wife and I just bought our first home in April, so I can finally build the Halloween props I've always dreamed of. I wanted to start this year with my first attempt at a Trash Can Trauma, but I'm having a bit of trouble.
I'm using the PVC and sprinkler solenoid method, but I'm just not generating enough force to push open the top of the can. I've got a few images and a little video narrating my troubles. I'm pretty sure the answer I'm going to receive is that I've got too much air leaking from the system as I can't get the can to flip open at 80psi of air. However, if anyone see's anything else that looks glaringly wrong, I'd appreciate a bit of help.
Thanks,
Horseman.
