This thing is my favorite operable MOC in memory. I think it has inspired a

Thanks!

Now only if generation 2 can be made to hit the town figs and not the space

Hrm, yes, well...
Range is a serious issue. With about 6-8 feet max, you arent going to shoot it
across the room at distant layouts. I was fortunate to be able to hit the Train
layout at all.
The Technic cannon is a very simple device, and it fires pretty safe rounds.
But Im not going to improve its range much unless I remove the rubber nose
bits. I could go for something scratch-built and more complex, but frankly the
firing mechanism is the best-engineered part of the whole thing.
