@@danmayberry6717 He would have more room to work with. He's probably used to being constrained to 12 gauge....now he'll have some crazy scale ups and different components that'll be able to be used in the designs
Comparison shots between different cast metal pellets, maybe? You should be able to use 3D printer wax filament and the lost wax casting method, just be sure to account for cooling shrinkage or you might not get a snug fit down the bore.
Hahaha that’s actually what we use at the moment. The light projectiles are a bit unpredictable but we can nail a plate at 100 yards pretty much everytime. We’ve for a red dot on it now!
I made a nylon insert for my brass cannon that holds one of the 12 gauge laser bore sight tools. It can be safely inserted and removed after loading and at the short ranges I shoot at, 25 ft. its dead on. It protrudes from the bore with an oversize diameter so no fingers have to be directly in line with the bore.
@@taofledermaus Right! You can be the best shot in the world and you won't hit an elephant with some of those weird projectiles! There's a reason people all make projectiles the same basic way. Heavy and roundish haha
Those printed pellets might be cool for packing full of BBs and shooting the pellets backwards. They should make a fine wadding for a bigass shotgun blast from the cannon.
@@TheCannoneer meh ...keep a mix. Use shorts to advertise (teasers with cool explosions) and 8 min and 20 min video mixes for when you drag em home. I don't click on 20 min videos. too long until i discover someone. appeal for rounds every video including shorts.
Me too! I opened the box a few days ago and we're hopefully headed to the range this weekend. Do you have a favorite video of his designs that you did? If you wouldn't mind I can link it at the end and route people to see his other designs?
@@TheCannoneer That's a hard one because he has sent over 45 different designs. I have a whole playlist of his stuff. Usually his diabolo-shaped slugs made from a knob or whatever oddball thing he found do quite well. The last video I posted were his and did really well. The "injectors". We can make almost anything fly OK with rifling but Evan had made some accurate slugs that did great from a smooth bore.
I’ve got a video where I made a prototype that didn’t work up and I’m printing V2 at the moment! Trevor also sent me a set of those to test out of his own design I’ll be putting out later!
A bit too much work perhaps, but it would be interesting to see them in led. Printed in the right size, thin walls and some structural support in the print, and the casted using the "lost wax method".
Hahaha they actually come out and watch sometimes. I was surprised they were super cool with it! All they asked for is a shoutout in the videos! Not to mention we clean up behind ourselves and probably more than we brought hahaha.
Let's google what elements are used for fireworks colors, add them to your powder and do some night shoots? Many opportunities for some long exposure slowmo.
Ex-pyrotech here...in general, colored flames are running much, much cooler than Black-powder. Green and blue flames (copper-salts) need the flames to be very cool and have lots of free chlorine (potassium perchlorate) for good color. Chlorine salts are gonna ruin the bore of your Cannon...rust within minutes on a humid day! Red (strontium nitrate) does better with higher temps, but can appear pink/washed out if too hot. Yellow (sodium nitrate or Plaster of Paris (orange)) just don't care...the hotter you get, the brighter the color... The residue from burning these ruin Iron/steel very quickly. If you are gonna try these, swab the bore with grease before each shot, clean the bore with gallons of hot water to rinse out any salts.
We actually built it but it would be about $3-$4k for the barrel alone if you buy a functional one or more depending on the size. It’s a revolutionary war cannon! You can tell by the different size bands on the barrel. They became pipes by the time of the civil war. Good questions!
The Minié ball is sometimes called the most dangerous bullet ever made. Dimensions of the bullet are very easily found on google. I wonder how a scaled up & printed version would fly ? If I had a printer I'd send a file, but I don't. Luv the stuff God bless.
We actually shot some in the “3D printed cannonballs” episode a while back! They will blow a massive hole in the backstop of wood but they are a bit unpredictable in accuracy. I need to cast some one of these days. Or lathe one out!
"My names Jonathan, this is my canon." But....But...But you can't own a canon. Couldn't buy one when the Second Amendment was written, can't get one now....Biden said so.... 😂
That won't help because he can't see obvious hits. He thought that first one was left when it hit obviously high and right on the hood. He'd just mark the wrong hit.
I think being that its tpu is hurting the accuracy because its being pushed in all different directions in the barrel. Maybe use pla on the top of the pellet and tpu on the bottom. Or just put it inside a sabot.
It would still give you the seal u need on the pellet skirt but u would still have the structure and rigidity in the round. I just think it's causing the round to bounce around in the barrel because it's a soft plastic.
Believe me I've done it. 97° outside and still standing in front of a lit forge. That being said we lost A/C and it's 87° in the house. Nothing but shorts on this channel until it's fixed.
We’ve got one on it. You can see the rail in between shots sometimes. We take it off so it doesn’t get shattered. It’s super super accurate when we’re using the correct ammo but the light and weird stuff is extremely unpredictable. And oh yeah… it’s an unregistered ghost cannon 😂🤣
What was your favorite shot? What do you want to see us shoot next?
Can you use the cannon to shoot a grappling hook or drag line of some sort? Or a big net!
Arrows, single/multiple, historic Warbow style heavy shaft wood arrows or crossbow bolts.
Please start collaborating with @TheRhinestoneHurricane Evan Perry. I can only imagine what crazy things would come of that.
@@maxwellkline7600 yes! Home skillet here is absolutely right! I'm gonna raid Perry until he does this

I'd like to see those cast from lead. That would act like a wad cutter perforation and maybe much better accuracy.
I think we have a mold like that coming but I’m not totally sure!! Someone reached out about that to test too.
Yes
@TheCannoneer the pellet shape worked wonders out of a shotgun at Taofledermaus. Curious to see what it does from a canon!

love the new filming angles. Very enjoyable view

have a shoulder stock made for it and get KentuckyBallistics to shoot it!

All the laser in the world won't help some rounds. I've seen him hit some very long range targets with this cannon without any problems.
@@taofledermaus your right
@@taofledermaus Right! You can be the best shot in the world and you won't hit an elephant with some of those weird projectiles! There's a reason people all make projectiles the same basic way. Heavy and roundish haha
The shape is notoriously unstable at transonic and supersonic speeds. About 900 fps is the sweet spot.
That would make sense. I bet they were going super slow on these so same concept I’d figure would apply.
Those printed pellets might be cool for packing full of BBs and shooting the pellets backwards. They should make a fine wadding for a bigass shotgun blast from the cannon.
I like it!
@@TheCannoneer me too!
I think it would be interesting to create few of these air gun pellets on a lathe. It looks like it could be quite easy to make.
We actually just got a decent lathe!
Those pellets turned into canister shot. You're lucky your camera gear didn't take a hit!
We’ve taken out two tripods but no cameras yet. 🤞
Fastly becoming one of my favorite channels. I'm making multiple projectiles to ship to you soon.
Thanks and thanks! Haha. I’m excited to see what you come up with!
Excellent episode, , i would never of thought TPU would hold together so good
Thanks! Me neither. I’m printing the new APFSD out of it so hopefully they stand up to the pressures haha
You have such a unique platform to use here. 8 Minutes is not enough, We need at least 25 minutes of Cannon Glory on each episode bud. Keep em coming!

Love to see these into a ballistic torso from dummy labs

Love your show! Please keep them coming!

弾頭をスラグ弾の様に回転するフィンを付けて内部に鉛の重りを入れられる様にすると良いと思います。

Hahaha they actually come out and watch sometimes. I was surprised they were super cool with it! All they asked for is a shoutout in the videos! Not to mention we clean up behind ourselves and probably more than we brought hahaha.
Nice pattern of impacts in the last one!
It was almost a perfect circle inside that previous dent too. Those bb filled ones are fun!

I have some questions
1] where did you get your cannon at
2] How much was it
3] What era of Cannonering is this depicting?
We actually built it but it would be about $3-$4k for the barrel alone if you buy a functional one or more depending on the size. It’s a revolutionary war cannon! You can tell by the different size bands on the barrel. They became pipes by the time of the civil war. Good questions!
@@TheCannoneerwould like to see more about its production. Great stuff!
There’s a video on how we made it in the channel and hopefully we will be able to make a bigger one at some point!
You need to find bigger melons . Ain't nothing wrong with with big melons.
I tried!!! They only have the little ones during the off seasons! The big ones are cheaper too! I love this time of year with the pumpkin targets haha

I’ll see what I can come up with!
Maybe some other creators can collab with some interesting materials, like tungsten, glass, polycarbonate, magnesium etc.
Hopefully!

No dent, huge dent, he never saw it… Maybe some glasses, my dude?
😂🤣 it was the heat on that one…. We filmed all day in the heat and I was gone by this video lol
Can you shoot wood in increasing thickness with a slug?
For sure! I’ll add that one to the list!
What is the bore of your cannon is there a way to shoot a surplus apfds round
38mm. If you could find one small enough I’m game to try!
what size is your bore i can make that out of hardend steel
38mm!
Would the Cannon survive BKS Powder Charge instead of black Powder?
No idea!
I would try it 😁
wait uncle jb the one that lives in that big white house in washington says we cant own cannons
It’s an unregistered ghost cannon!
What kind of music and bands do you listen to?
A bit of everything but I mainly live in 60-90’s land. My favorite band of all time is Steely Dan. How about yourself?
Forks and spoons ( cutlery shot 😂 )
We’ve got one actually!! It’s a few videos back!
I think being that its tpu is hurting the accuracy because its being pushed in all different directions in the barrel. Maybe use pla on the top of the pellet and tpu on the bottom. Or just put it inside a sabot.

Thanks, man! I haven't been in the smithing side of the shop in a long time. Mental health went screwy and right now work is taking priority.
You need a Lazer sight
Hahaha we have one and a red dot on it! It’s super accurate with a real cannonball but the light stuff is extremely unpredictable.
Hmmmmmm. This gives me some ideas.
Nice!!!
what's the bore size?
So sorry for the delay! 38mm
По форме напомнило пробку от шампанского и выстреливает так же )

or candle wax
Yes to both!

It’s not totally to scale as the wheels are a bit big but custom cannon wheels are $$ lol

No problem. The important thing is that you got the cannon and can make some pretty cool boom-booms!
