Minuture Black powder Cannon from shop bits & bobs.

[WarPig1976]

The carriage is made from leftover Oak stair tread. Roughly modeling a Naval truck carriage. The barrel is a .32 rifle barrel cut down from a kit gun I picked up at a flea market many years ago that was missing parts. I'll blue it next time I'm set up, painted for now. The elevation screw and wheels are fully functional. Haven't put a ball down the pipe but it's very loud with 20 grains and just a wad. I had everything I needed in the shop, even the bamboo skewers holding the wheels on.

One of those fun projects you do when your bored. Now I wanna break stuff with it...
We never grow up do we?
Thanks for looking.
