cannon 1

cannon 2

these things are built so well he made the trailer hydraulics move the barrel they can split into two pieces. on cannon 3 he set up this very smart loading system that ive never seen before with a push button trigger. and those 2 large cannons shoot pumpkins (around 6'' in diameter to the tree line about 3/8ths of a mile away. its really well built works great and looks so cool!
