Nery nicely done start to finish and that includes the finishing stain and paint. If you can access a metal lathe, perhaps at a close by machine shop, with some enticements, you can turn a metal barrel bored for firing. Just decide upon a caliber that you can get round shot for from a local black powder shop. Firing my own at the local gun range is a blast as I also measure the shot point from where I was aiming. No personal responsibility taken for any activities associated with such cannon firing. Rich (PT-2)Part 3
