My 7th grade science project was centered on electromagnetics. So, I did what all young boys do and built a coil gun. It would shoot small tacking nails across my parents pool table. It was so much fun to show people you could create a projectile weapon with no sort of gas propellent. Nowadays though I would probably be arrested under a zero tolerance law and the reports would say I had an ak47.

gotta agree with davidr, can the music and lets hear an audio track of what they did and how, and more firing tests.

Music was horribly annoying and there was little in the way of explanation (or shooting!)
iPhone control was cool though…
