#1 flipped and facing
#2 band OD #3 Relieved for cascabel #4 Taper of breech end. I had to bust out some long forgotten trig to get the angle #5 Cascabel. My ball turner would not fit this lathe so I did it freehand

they ought to be glad you're making the cannon. Seems like it would do a good job in controlling avalanche conditions

Nice work, you want to make noise get a Harley.
Just for curiosity, mic the od. in three places before you fire it. write that down for the future. As it's used you maybe-may be able to detect expansion in the barrel over time.

Did you make an accurate rendition of a "1835 mountain Howitzer" with a reduced powder chamber?
Are you going to make a period 1835 carriage? There's a black powder cannon forum over on "Graybeard.com". They have a lot of info on Mountain howitzers. I got information from there and made a "Golf ball Mortar".

Yes, the print showed everything in its entirety. Every thing was reduced to scale (37%) I am not a big fan of the horse drawn carriage style. Good for display not too good for flopping over on the lawn  . I am thinking more of a wheel-less naval carriage that I can stake into the ground solid. Cheap and sleezy.
