I built this a while ago at the begining of the summer, so I figured I would finally post it. It is actually the first cannon I made, but I hope to build a new one after I finish my bbmg. But anyways it is just over 7 feet long it has a 3" chamber thats a little over 3 feet and a 2" barrel thats 4 feet long. It also has two 1.5 inch handles. It has a bbq igniter thats mounted in the rear handle. For fuel I mostly use Right Gaurd.

That's pretty cool looking. I might use this idea for my friends's cannon.

Honestly if anything blows up your screwed whether its at your waist or your head.

Nice cannon :)

Amazing how many people still use right guard even though its apparently non-flammable.

I went out and bought some the other day. Black can, very flammable.

Thanks guys. Hotwired they changed the formula but most stores still sell the old stuff and it costs just as much as an axe can only like 3 times the size so for me it works the best until I make a new gun with propane.
