A few months ago I replaced the main pivot pins on a hook lift truck & the first thing I thought was , what can I make from 2 9" x 2.75 pins . GB MINI Coherns came to mind so I started " The 4 Pac" . A couple months ago I replaced the floor in a beer trailer , some solid pieces of laminated oak & maple flooring survived . So I present "The 4 Pac . All recycled & the beds aged for 15 yrs in spilled Bud. Armorere77
I made these a little thicker than my original design with a slightly larger powder chamber . Unfortunately I am out of powder until this week end . Sunday is the !st firing . Armorer77

RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won. He died instantly.
The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

You could also do a pair in low angle and the other pair at high angle timed to hit the same target at the same time!

Great job of recycling, Ed! You took some "beasts" and turned them into "beauties"! Very imaginative, and like a lot of us, you see potential barrels or mountings everywhere! BoomLover
