This picture (which I think is my favorite of the set) and the rest posted here are the results of The Smashening V01. Jeff,Wes, Mika, Ryan, Kyle and I spent Friday evening documenting our quest to break things in the coolest ways possible. I’ve posted what I felt were the best of the shots that I captured. I still have to go through the shots from everyone else to see how they came out. Overall I think everyone had a blast.
To prepare for The Smashening V02 I’m going to try to find some pellets that fit my pellet gun (since I bought the wrong size for last night, so we were limited to the sling shot for projectile breakage). Also I think I’m going to need to pickup some more wine glasses and my own set of liquid food coloring, since the colored water breaks are my favorites.

That was a super sweet evening! I’m looking forward to round 2!
I did end up fixing my BB gun this morning. The pressure relief valve was bleeding off the pressure too early. A big glob of epoxy later and it’s not bleeding anything
We need to spend some time before V2 and mount our delay circuits, etc into some sort of protective boxes so we don’t keep bumping things loose.

I’ve had a whole slew of new ideas for V2. Here’s some ideas:
-We get one of those water balloon slingshots, and shoot stuff at a painted sheet of plywood. Think bottles, fruit and ceramics (plates, cups and planted pots)
-Macro + HiSpeed Coloured water drops onto a surface. Or drops into water.
-Projectiles at incredibly high speeds VS A big block of ice
-Projectiles at incredibly high speeds VS A big block of jello
-Lots and Lots more wine glasses and coloured water
