The desktop cannon features a rifled bore, countersunk touch-hole, and naval inspired carriage. Designed and created in the squalls of endless meetings that could have been summed up in an email, this piece of workplace artillery will act as the perfect deterrent to 4:58pm meetings and your coworkers'-sister's-kids' classmates'-iguana's birthday party gosip. Own the seven… Cubicles and make your space known! Now, deadmen tell no tales, but luckily at the time of writing this, I'm not dead! So let me tell ya how to print it. You'll need a couple of things for this model that you must plunder ahead of time. This particular design utilizes four M3 heatset inserts, and four M3x12 sockethead screws for a total of 8 pieces of 8! These will hold down your trunnion caps, and ultimately your cannon barrel! The barrel and breech must be supported but the remainder is Captain's choice! CM here printed this model out of PLA (Pirate Legs ARRRRR) or something like that. Went kinda cheap with only 2 walls and 15% infill for all parts but the wheel pins, those be set at 100%! The cannon itself is of two parts, the rifled barrel and the breech. They be made to fit tightly when threaded together, and that be on purpose! So whip out ye cutlass and give them parts a bit of a debur. Now with the same strength you use to hoist the colors, screw the breech into the barrel! It be difficult on the first voyage, but better tight than having 'er pop off when you need it the most! Once you've collected all yer parts, we'll use em 8 pieces of 8 we talked about before. Using your weapon of choice, plunge your heatsets into the carriage. Place your cannon on the trunnion blocks and secure it with the Trunnion Caps and M3x12s. Now, Slide your axles through the carriage, there is a difference and you'll notice if you've mixed them up! Lets just say it's a lesson in orientation so you can better decipher treasure maps. Once your axles are in, put your wheels on and hold them with yer Wheel Pins.
