have not been such a "great idea"??

my dad loves black powder guns (rifles and pistels) and has a small cannon 45 cal, and like that one when you lite it you better move. he built one that will shoot a baseball out of sight, and a smaller one that shoots a 12ga. shot gun shell. i will see if my brother will get me some pics.

The first thing I thought of when I saw your video, was it looks like the cannon they use at the local high school to "celebrate" a home team score (TD, field goal, or extra point). They use a "bangsite" cannon...here's a link if anyone is interested

yea, i guess youre right - but thinking about it - seems like a lot COULD have gone wrong - but thats the case with most everything i do when i think about it.

Wow. There's something you don't see every day. What makes a fella wake up one morning and say "I think I'll load an anvil full of gunpowder and launch it skyward"
