I have finally finished my silver cannons for a ship I am planning to make in the future. It was not my idea, I was inspired by Tom Reed's creation "Booming Betty": (URL) as soon as I saw his cannon, I wanted to make one too. I searched for months (...)

(...) Hey Daniel, I'm so glad you liked my cannon idea and used it in creating your own! Thanks for mentioning me and linking my website. I like your all silver cannon.

(...) I made the basic base for the cannon now. It's not very realistic at all, but good for playability. There is support for the front of the cannon too. It's very hard to explain how they will be on the ship without pictures, so I guess you'll (...) (20 years ago, 22-Oct-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

(...) (5 URLs) (...) These are really nice cannons, Daniel. The all-silver look is really sharp. They would make nice large(32-pounders, say) cannons for the main deck of a ship, with the smaller Lego cannons the deck above (if you build a ship of (...) (20 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.pirates)
