Here’s mine. Didn’t quite get it build in time. Built the truniun caps and cut the black locust trails yesterday. Could have got it done but the guy cutting the caps on the cnc torch took couple weeks. Can’t complain about free tho. Been working on this on and off for 1.5 years

Here’s the piece of black locust I milled back in sept 2022. Air dried outside for 2 years the. Brought inside for 2 years so hopefully this puppy is dry. Should I stuck my moisture meter in it after cutting it. Probably 12% or less

That's cool! How much powder did you test it with?

No... But cutting both ends out of soda cans and taping them together does
We called those "Polish Cannons" when I was a kid growing up in PA. Zippo lighter fluid for propellent and shot tennis balls. We preferred Iron City beer cans. Had many a battle in the woods with those!

I know.. The first can you punched a hole in the center on one end and the other end got the triangled shape can opener (forget what they are called as the 70's and 80's were really good to me) all the way around
