I did ponder a little before I posted it but I thought- what the heck!

Even though he has a strange name, he's totally a hero in my book  :med:

Sparky- there's a vid on youtube of an anvil firing gone wrong, it almost gets the numbnuts that's doing it  :loco:




John  :D

Divided he ad:
Couldn't resist that line John... like a rag to a bull!  :lol:


How mad must people be to discover that this is a fun pastime!?


There's always some numbnuts doing something very stupid on youtube!

I'm not on there myself yet.... But there's still time!  :ddb:

 :offtopic: warning!

You ask about madness and anvil launching, I had a great Uncle who's idea of fun for 4th of July was putting a couple gallons of petrol in an empty 55gal drum in the middle of a field, screwing a spark plug in the bung (of the drum  :palm: ), and hooking the plug up to a car battery.

I can tell you it leaves quite the impression on an 8yr old (not to mention the need for clean shorts  :bugeye: )!

Cheers

Jeff

Hi guys, sorry for late replay.. Im still lookin for some plans for small mortars and cannons.
I've made a 8mm cannon with my own drawings but its not optimal.

Thanks for any reply :)
