UNLOVED BUT EFFECTIVE- SYRIAN 'FURY'

If you get a printer you can print things for the whole family. Tell the significant other...you are buying it for her. lol

Oh she couldnt care less if I did, but the dance lessons and costumes for the 2 girls keep me out of that game I can tell ya!!
Plus, Im too dumb to make the thing work even if I got one.

I understand the economic challenge, Herman (although a good 3D printer isn't really all that expensive). In 2022, after a few years of envying all the wonders here on RCTW, I seriously considered a 3D printer--and I could have had it as a gift from my sweetheart. However, as I looked at my mountainous pile of projects (RC AFVs, static AFVs, trains, 1/18 airplanes, egad, what else!), considered all the 3D printed goodies I have bought from others, and considered all that is available online, I decided that I would forego the opportunity. I do, however, disagree: you have demonstrated over and over and over that you are perfectly capable of making a 3D printer work well.

Aye right, you are.

In keeping with the theme of the vehicles in this thread, and current Geo-political events notwithstanding, I decided to whip up a Hell Cannon just because !!
Scrap brass material, a piece of 20mm conduit from the father in laws stash, and a pair of wheels form the "I really have no idea where they came from " department and a bit of time while flicking between the NZ V England Cricket Test and the Aussies V India Test...............

I will go as far as putting welds on this, and perhaps making a BBQ gas bottle ammo round for it, but thats not a certainty.
I want to be able to tow this behind the ' Technical ' Hilux.
No rhyme or reason- just because.
Still to make the tow hitch for the cannon, and a tow bar for the Hilux, so its a bit away from done yet.
I might make a loaders platform too if the mood takes me.
Heres a small scale version, a casual kit if ya dont mind

Here in the States, we could use it for 4th of July fireworks. Egad, there must be quite a risk in dropping a mortar shell in that think. I'd bet the loader runs like h___.

That would make a great diorama and with the exception of some of the rubble pieces not that difficult

The diorama possibilities are endless............

Be it ever so humble, its in primer!
Decided not to do a loaders step attached to the front, just to avoid the extra work!
As a gag accessory for an accessory vehicle to the actual main build, this here Hell Cannon is near enough
Looks a lot more betterer in one colour.
