    The "toilet seat" on top of all those cannons looks a bit odd.<br><br>what makes a gun/cannon is a thin and long barrel...that counterweight on top always destroys the look a bit...but i can´t think of a better way to do it <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_sad.gif" alt="Sad" longdesc="3">

    What is reinforcing the wood? If you reinforced this thing with steel or aluminum parts and stacked some beefy bands on there, it would be a beast!
