Product description
Working Cannon (Print-In-Place) by Makkuro
This is a working print-in-place cannon. It has a hinge and spring to shoot cannon balls. No assembly required.
This is a working cannon. It has a spring to shoot cannon balls. Use the hinge to aim precisely. Print as many cannon balls (included) as you need or shoot paper balls, peas, etc. Print it as a toy for your kids, grandkids, or present it to friends as a gift. Some use it to launch cat treats for the cats...
In the base carriage, there are identations to store 2 cannon balls. (Better print two).
Use it as a permanent display on your desk, ready to fidget or defend yourself whenever needed.
Update October 2023: You find a keychain version with ball holder here.
Update 12th of December: Added a “thick plunger” version as requested by fabrizio-the-frog and yume . It has a way thicker plunger only in case you have issues with the normal diameter plunger.
Update 13th of September: Added the tiny keychain cannon. It holds one ball securely in place and is still fully functional. In case you can print this version, try also the tiny version!
Update 8th of July: Added the autoloading cannon remix. It can load two balls and you dont need to prime the cannon anymore before putting the cannon balls in:
Update 1st of July: I added the “big gun” models (idea from nilson_fx): With those, you can shoot 23mm nerf rival ammunition or the included “big gun” cannon ball.
- You can select a strong or weak spring (weak one for kids, to make it easier to pull and reduce potential injury). New: There is also a third “big gun” version, able to shoot 23mm nerf rival ammunition or the included bigger cannon ball.
- For each version, there are three models:
- The cannon only, you can also print this as initial test for your calibration
- The cannon without wheels
- Then cannon with wheels. The wheels dont turn, but look cool. They also print without support material
- There is also a cannon ball included
In case the hinge is fused (not turning) or the spring doesn't work, try slicing with PrusaSlicer. E.g. Cura seems to have trouble with print-in-place hinges.
Printing settings
- Print it without supports and as oriented in the STL. (The cannon and front of the carriage should point down towards the print bed.)
- The cannon is fully print-in-place: No assembly required, just remove the cannon from the print bed and fire away! (The hinge and piston might need some initial movement to get going.)
- The cannon is designed for easy printing, so bed adhesion should not be an issue.
- The spring (inside the cannon) is 3D printed, and works well also if you print in PLA. There is a hinge included for aiming. It might need some initial movement to get going.
