What is the spoon one for powder????
Yes sir, my friend isn’t able to make powder bags so I made him a ladle that he can use to put his powder in the cannon
That certainly would be easier for him. We’ll see….Best thing to do is make him powder bags thats the way it was done plus it is a whole lot safer.

Well your a good friend. Nice work, take a picture of the cannon mounted if possible.
The tall stand teeters some but doesn’t fall. If you hold on to the tiller and aim her it just bumps you a little.I've always wondered how swivel guns with any kind of mount absorbed recoil. Carronades had slides and regular cannons wheels, but what of swivels?
That’s what I do w/ my golf ball sized swivel gonne - use a large wooden block - but I glued 80-grit sand paper to the bottom & it barely moves.The bench top stand is heavy and smooth on the bottom … she slides back about 3 inches when you fire the cannon
