Where's the wick,Gary?[]

 

[skiprat]

What's the range on that thing?
Do us Brits need to take cover[]

How much do you reckon it weighs, Gary

 

[Gary Max]

It's not really very to bad---maybe 250Lbs.
I had to get it done because my other work was not getting done so I shot the finish outside. I can pick one side up in the air and hold it while I was shot the underside.
If I can get the time next month I plan on building a bigger one---hehehehehe

Mike I had thought about a wick---even figured out how I was going to make it and what it should look like. Take heavy copper wire and bend it into a pigs tail. Drill a hole and epoxy it in. But the more I thought about it the less I liked the thought of something sticking up. I figure the real trick is going to be keeping kids from climbing on it.[]

Funny---I woke up from my nap-The cannon was gone.
The wife had put it away because of the storm that's coming in.

Barbwire will keep the kids off will it not?[}][][}][]

What does it shoot?

I had one years ago that looked like a 105 howitzer and shot tennis balls.

 

[Gary Max]

Mike this is Kentucky---------Barb wire doesn't even slow down a country boy.
Mudder ---It doesn't shot anything---just yard art[]

Gary nice looking canon. What caliber is it? I didn't see any wooden canon balls or a ram rod in you pics.
