Wes...
How did you make something like that? Did you follow plans?

I've got a drawing here somewhere. I'll send it along with that other stuff. I cast that mastery piece for you. I just have to clean it up and get everything boxed up.
Wes

oooh. Can't wait ;D
Eric

Are there plans for the cannons?
-
I'll see if I can find the drawing. If not, I'll redraw it and make a PDF so everyone can see it.
Have a great day, Wes

Do you still got the drawings? if so, can you please post it or pm me;)
Greetings Mats:-)

Very nice Powder Keg :thumbup:
Here's a few Cannons that I made at work when the gaffers all went home :dremel:

They are only display pieces but are probably strong enough to fire with a small charge (not going to have a go though :thumbup:
I presume everyone has seen this??, it's fantastic (Gay is my new hero :med: )

You presume wrong.... I am now complete. :)
Amazing boom! Although, I have to wonder how I get from watching anvils being blasted into the sky to some guy flipping a monster truck ... to some weird clip in an unidentifiable language doing things that, well .... you know? Funny, this YouTube thing...

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

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

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 :)
