The tennis ball launcher (avoid the "cannon" term..) looks less "weapon-y" Not that shoulder fired one that everyone's been looking at..:-) http://www.antennalaunchers.com/antlaunching.html It looks like an RPG. Wander around aiming that thing at the top of your trees while the gendarmerie rides past and I'll bet you'll be asked to "DO IT NOW". Just for added effect, when I made my tennis ball launcher I spray- painted it yellow and then added black stencils with BIOHAZARD and FALLOUT SHELTER symbology on. And then I stenciled BUTTERCUP on for the opposite impression :-). I'm sure that some people are comfortable with lead weights flying through the air, or with crossbows. Me, I just happen (perhaps through lack of ability with the other two - I tried, but failed with slingshot and crossbow, but the tennis ball cannon worked the first time!) to be pefectly comfortable with the tennis ball cannon. And it worked, man it worked. I am so so so happy with the resulting antenna, 100 feet up between two trees. Tim N3QE |
