I made a Cannon from Brass, Wood and Stainless Steel

[@misterpatina]

What’s a good name for the cannon? Oh and (most important) it weighs 965 grams (2,1 pounds / 34 ounces) 😅

[@danielprivate7442]

Jumping Billy.

[@dietergranitzki7680]

I would call it Whistol, pistol on wheels. Also a bit crazy to know that you could build your own gun in your basement 😱!!!

[@Hostilenemy]

Big Bertha.

[@moomae1]

Lil' Patina

[@zwilnik]

Obvs the two-pounder.

[@bigpappahemi4263]

I can't stress this enough, thank you for not talking or putting stupid music over your videos!

[@sinformant]

Wad goes in before the ball. Put in powder, then wad, then ball and compact it with a rod. It eliminates air pockets in the propellent and makes it burn more evenly and with more force. The wadding helps seal the barrel behind the ball and provides a better velocity.

[@misterpatina]

Thanks for the tipp :-)

[@joearledge1]

You've got that backwards for a breech loader.

[@briannemec9214]

No he is right. Breech loaded rounds powder is usually in a "bag". The bag acts to keep the powder tight and supplies a seal behind the projectile. For proper ignition a pick is pushed in the wick hole to puncture the bag. This seal helps prevent hot gasses going around the projectile an burning groves in the barrel. You might put some light packing in front of a ball projectile when shooting a negative elevation, keeps the ball from rolling out. Too much packing in front could become an obstruction. The packing could act like a wedge an not allow the projectile to move. This changes a cannon into an IED. Nice job. I hope it easier to clean match powder than black powder. For me a few hours of shooting means a night of cleaning. @@joearledge1

[@larry1875]

I know that cleaning doesn't mean a lot of work! Larry

[@StealthDonut1]

Mr. P, that gigantic file/rasp REQUIRES a video dedicated to just itself! Where on (or off) of Earth did you find that magnificent tool?!?!

[@misterpatina]

Haha, thanks! I found it in Switzerland while I was 'shopping' in barns with my mechanics 😅

[@StealthDonut1]

@@misterpatina If you go barn shopping again please make a video of it!

[@MisterGames]

I know right. I literally "What?" When i saw that.

[@ad5000donnell]

It's called a Farriers Rasp its used to shape horses feet after putting on shoes.

[@MisterGames]

@@ad5000donnell Thank you. Now i have learned something new. 👍

[@bovanshi6564]

The phosphor is in the friction strip and the tip of the match contains a potassium (per/) chlorate and sulfur mix.

[@misterpatina]

Thanks for clarification !

[@Elmosquitodelmundo]

make the mix more potent < make a finer powder and at rate like 70/30 mix that's a better bang ! @@misterpatina

[@bigwilly43729]

That's pretty cool! I wasn't expecting that big of a boom from such a small cannon.

[@misterpatina]

...me neither...:-D

[@larrybud]

Guns, how do they work? He essentially made a .22 caliber firearm.

[@bonlappen3000]

Made a cannon when I was 9or something, made out of a 12mm id stainless pipe sounded louder than a 30.06 but we couldn't find it afterwards

[@Drankoii]

That was sooo cool! Now I just want to see more shots!

[@misterpatina]

Maybe I’ll make a short 🙂

[@royothebuzz]

Brilliant project. Great camera shots and I loved the way the wood grain popped out when you put finish on it.

[@misterpatina]

Thanks my friend!

[@Blade1310]

Couldn't stop thinking of Christopher Lee in The Man With The Golden Gun when you were assembling the brass parts. Well done Mr P.

[@misterpatina]

Thank you so much! 🙂

[@condar419]

Nice design, excellent craftmanship, as usual!

[@misterpatina]

Thanks!

[@BruceDWolcott]

I like the bolt section what a nice addition to a "regular" cannon.

[@jerryjohnson4618]

Outstanding craftsmanship !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@misterpatina]

Thanks Jerry!

[@allymac68]

You could NOT in this lifetime - NOT show us the last fire hitting the Target!! lol..... Please do a redit - It would be a finale - a conclusion, if you will - to what is possibly the BEST thing Ive ever seen on KZbin - on a host of different levels. Kudos MP!

[@misterpatina]

Haha, thank you so much! I really appreciate, and iam glad you like my work! Hugs!

[@iridescentgherkin]

[@misterpatina]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ratroddiesels1981]

this was one of the finest videos ive watched , the videography , machining and epoxing a wood knot. so good thank you

[@misterpatina]

Hey, thank you so much!

[@johnnyo3fan]

My uncle was a machinist and worked at Lawrence Livermore labs. He made a cannon that accepted a tennis ball. He fired it off pointed straight up, the ball was never seen again.

[@byronedwards5828]

Nice peice of machining,

[@misterpatina]

Thank you so much!

[@sithyarael6807]

Now I want one. Maybe using #10 Percussion Caps or even 209 shotgun primers if going for .50 cal with 30 or 50 grain Black Powder pellets. And in the US all black powder is 100% legal so no issues there. I would probably do the main parts out of steal instead of brass just cause it could handle it better and last longer. Although adding rifling might be a tad tricky.

[@worldscoolestusernam]

Me last video…you didn’t roll it! Me this video…you fired it! Yes!!!

[@misterpatina]

Hahaha, i always try to improve and make you guys happy 🙂

[@andreacrashe9894]

*Wow... Your skill at making this canon is so amazing... seeing it work in slow mo was like Yikes & WOW together.... but at the end of the day this a toy but yet not a toy... especially in the wrong hands.*

[@misterpatina]

Thank you so much, iam glad you like it! Now its a display piece...i think a loaf of bread is more deadly than the time it takes to make this cannon shootable :-D

[@hannahpinson4361]

Something I really appreciate is your warning at the beginning. I've seen creators punished in the past where someone tries to recreate it only to get hurt. Never understood that as it's not the KZbinr's fault a viewer decided to attempt something that might end badly.

[@jimthesoundman8641]

Elm is such nice wood, it's a shame there isn't any of it left in North America anymore.

[@Thomas287]

This is by far one of the most amazing videos that I have watched on YT

[@misterpatina]

[@Vickie-Bligh]

This was so much fun to watch. You are a talented woodworker as well as machinist. And your filming is spot on. Thanks for sharing this Mr. P.

[@misterpatina]

You’re welcome 🙂❤️

[@kipbreitmeyer8517]

Very clever. Building a cannon pistol.

[@mackiri6996]

That's awesome 💯

[@billbaggins9961]

Very nice machining and the cannon itself turned out great!

[@misterpatina]

Thanks!

[@steadfasttherenowned2460]

You have to make your own breech loaded cartridges for this cannon. That could be so cool. Even if the cartridges were card stock sleeves or something the fuse can ignite easy to set off the match head propellant

[@buntzi]

Cigarette paper?

[@Halinspark]

Cigarette rolling papers would be easiest.

[@hansjansen7047]

Blackpowder is also quite easy to produce.

[@joearledge1]

Nitrated paper cartridges would be best. Lots of how to videos online for that

[@TrueThiago]

SO COOL!!!! Congratulations!!!! Rio de Janeiro -🇧🇷

[@misterpatina]

Thank you so much!

[@PaulMcillen]

I made a ss model cannon in high school metals class. No where as nice as this but it was a .50 cal and I proof tested it with 60 grains of 2f black powder and a patched round ball. The carriage design was problematic though so I didn't fire it much. Yes this was 50 years ago when young men could do fun stuff without problems. I did get an A on the project 😊 Love your work!

[@BB_Chaptsick]

What a great project! Super fun to watch. What a cool thing to make, have and pass down to your son, assuming that is what you’re going to do. Disappointed about the knot it the wood. I know you can fix it. But, still. Only thing missing is your makers mark! Good to see a post sir. Hope you’re doing better. Stay safe.

[@misterpatina]

Thank you so much B! I know what you mean about the knot, thought about doing a new piece, but 1) I didnt have a elm wood piece this size 2) I somehow loved the imperfection, but 3) i agree, its a weak spot - so i agree :-) Yes, like always, i keep the projects i restore/make and...if Mr. P Jr. wants to have it one day...it´s his :-) We´re doing better, but...not a 100%. Thanks for your support my friend!
