I can understand wanting to keep it about antique cannons.
thats what i like about another forum im on their all about class 3 and thats where i direct my class 3 thoughts.
i just thought since mine had to do with mortars you're input would be more closely relatable.
but i have read a great deal on here about mortar builds copies of antique ones as well as beer can and golf ball mortars and i have recently built one
and i am looking for opinions on it where can i post about that subject is that here or am i lost
please be patient with me as this is my first time posting on this site thank you
( I edited this post of my decision to remove another forums name wasn't sure how that works )
You must be typing on one of those smart phones or something because you message was one big giant run on sentence. I broke it apart so I could read it.
You can post the name of the Class three forum. Others my find it useful.
It's always a good idea when you first visit a forum to look around for the board rules and learn what the board is about. Nothing will make you look bad, than making a first post that is way off topic or violates the premise of the board. Or worse to post a cannon build, of a cannon that so unsafe or ugly as to be offensive..
We look at such posts as a personal affront. Anything that brings discredit on our hobby such as it is, is not looked upon as a good thing. Some guys don't take kindly to that either.
We also do not want to get mixed into the class 3 or DD debate either, particularly given the current political climate.
You may have got the wrong Idea about our board after reading a post last week about Mortars in WWI. That post was marginally on topic here and evolved into a discussion primarily about the use of pre 1899 designs. So the camel stuck his nose under the tent...he just didn't come in.
If you want to build a replica of an antique that shoots golf balls or pop cans full of cement, you have come to the right place. Why some of use here even shoot bowling balls.
