The fella that Mr Lilly works for..takes care of his old cars and such, and also the fella I shred pastures for, got a new toy the other day. He called.....all excited like a lil kid, wantin Mr Lilly to hurry it up, to come shoot it.

So...what did we do? We hurried. I think Mr Lilly was just as excited as he was about it.

So....here's the video. LOL

No there wasn't a ball in it. 1/2 lb of black powder per shot tho. It's kinda cool to watch how it all goes together.

I expected it to roll back too. But it didn't. They shot it twice.

Sure did make the neighbors house light up tho. LOL When we left and went back thru town...folks was wonderin what the big booms were LOL

Not sure what the of the bore is - but we use beer and soda cans filled with concrete on the neighbours.

They often compete in cannon shoots.

You can also use soaked and rolled newspapers if you are simply shooting for the "noon cannon" effect.

No sound and no video here - too bad

I want one real bad.

The South going to rise again! :lol: Lilly is really for Obama and his programs now. I can see it now when they come to tax Lilly on the number of cows she has. :wink:

Great cannon! :D Had a friend who built one and took it on the mountain. He ran a cow camp all summer and when pals would stop by he'd celebrate by firing bowling balls donw the canyon! :shock: Later that fall during the elk hunt two different guys came trudging out of the canyon with a bowling ball and a perplexed look on their face. Ron never told them about the cannon and they were mystified how a bowling ball ended up 5 miles from the nearest road. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
