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!

Thumbs up Re: a lil quickie

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