Haha, I built a couple like that in high school(just the barrel). They used firecrackers for power(mighty mights) and shot nails or whatever fit! The shop teacher caught me making the second one. He just calmly said, Reg please don't make any more of those....

Nice job on the wheels Dad!

That's some really good work Steve. You should be proud of your work, and your daughter should be proud of you :)

Nice work as always Steve:cool:
Speaking of homemade cannons.....the craziest I've seen was one of my coworkers used the track adjuster barrel from a CAT 320 excavator :eek:
He kept telling me to drop by and see him fire it...... I value my life and chose not too.;). Lol

thanks Guys /gals she learned how the drafting works . If I had the machines when she was born shed be running it by now . I made up the wheels but made her use her imagination for the rest .

Mario , It's just a little BP not much but some smoke :D it be hard to blow that track adj. up with BP unless you press the projectile in with a shop press
