I have one, it's made with 4" sch 160 cs pipe, welded on the back 1" plate. I bought it from craigs (sp)list. The carriage was 4 X 4 lumber with a piece of pipe for the axle. Since then, I added the wooden spoke wheels from, I think SD, and go with their axle, it's tapered on each end with one right handed & one left handed ends with nuts. I took a 6" X 4" cs reducer, cut the small end off, slid it over the 4" pipe and a small donut type flat plate to cover the gap between the 6" & 4" pipe. Looks good with the end flared out. I've also drilled and tapped a 1/2" hole where the 1/8" hole was for the fuse. You can get a knocker type thing from Dixie gun works that you use blanks to fire the thing, don't have to use a fuse. You can get black powder & fuse on line, of coarse uncle sam get a fee for this. You can get up to 50 pounds with out a special permit the last time I got some. Might have changed with anti-gun people in DC.
I can shoot a 15.5 oz can of what ever on sale, beans, greens or what ever and 1 oz of black powder and shoot it 359 yards, so watch where you aim. The best things I've done, a friends daughter was going to have her second baby and wanted a way to announce the gender. My friend come by and told me what she wanted. I went on line and found a powder at a India Temple in Utah that made different colored powder, Got that (both colors) and waited. I shot 4 oz blue powder out of that thing and all had a good time and for sure, something new. By the way, the colored powder is corn starch & food coloring. A fun thing to play with, just have to watch everybody so no one gets hurt.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
