1:22 Scale Mountain Howitzer Barrel Part 1

I'm making a 1:22 scale Civil War era mountain howitzer. So far I have only made the barrel. I'll start on the carriage at some point. I shoot about 10 grains of FFF black powder, and in the last clip I'm shooting a firecracker that explodes about 20' high.

When I get the carriage done, I'll make another video showing the completed model. But for now, I'm using a paperclip and two bottle caps as a makeshift carriage.

[superegomaniac12]

what did you use to make the barrel?

[Jefenry]

@superegomaniac12 This was made before I had my metal lathe, so I just used a drill press and a file.

@Jefenry Did you use like part of a laser?

[Jefenry]

@DeadliestSoldier No, it was a bit of solid brass round bar left over from some project or another.

@superegomaniac12 looks like brass

[kr0n1c671]

should add weights or bottom hooks to help stabilize it

[TheWildboy199]

the wheels should be more stable and the body
