Let me know if I need to change anything.

You need to re-orient the piece so that the "business end" (muzzle ;-)
is facing along the "Z"-axis, and not the "X"-axis.

Some of the pirate cannons i have in my collection have a small "seal"
or "coat of arms" on them in the form of two crossed cannons
inside a circle.  I only have two cannons in my collection that bear
this symbol, and i believe it is found on the top side of the part,
right above the "fuse hole". Any way, i thought that the part
might look better in povray when it was rendered if it had this detail
on it. Other then that, IT LOOKS O.K. TO ME. :-)

Some of the (non-firing) cannon did not have this emblem/seal/design
on them.  However, these were the impromptu, "de-weaponized" kind
that they produced before they finalized the (current) non-firing kind,
which does have this emblem you're talking about.

Now that I think about it, I'm quite certain that I posted a message
in the past few weeks (past few months?) enumerating the various parts
for the cannons, both firing and non-firing.  (Can't find them
right now, search feature temporarily disabled, sorry...)

Paul, is this supposed to be a _non-firing_ cannon?
(i.e., either the "Cannon Non-Firing One Piece", the current kind,
w/ the decoration, or "Cannon Non-Firing Multi-Part [shortcut/assembled]",
the other kind that I mentioned above...)

Thanks,
Franklin
