simple cannon "shed"
« on: October 04, 2007, 03:40:33 PM »
I was trying to figure out how to protect my latest creation from the elements. I could not find a plastic storage box big enough to cover it with.

I wandered the isles of Walmart a while, and came up with a plastic folding table.

It was white... an eyesore in the yard, so I spraypainted it camo with Krylon Fusion paint.

A nice thing about a table rather than a box it that it lets the sun in so it won't kill the grass around the gun.



didn't have a powder can handy... I assume you all know how big a 12 ounce beer mug is :-)

I wonder how well it will work if a wind comes up.

I'll work on a hangout name  ;)

GG, I was already thinking about bungie cords between the table and the rings on the side of the gun.
