    Default The Cannon Smoke Company

    I was just wondering if anyone has purchased anything from The Cannon Smoke Company. I spoke at length with him over the phone early this week and was impressed with his knowledge.

    I've been looking into his cannon barrels and carriages and was wondering what others have found in dealing with him.

    Thanks,
    Terry

    The metal work on these is too light and not properly shaped. If the hardware is wrong then one must presume that the wood work and perhaps even the tube itself might be suspect.

    Don't buy something on the cheap that will out live you. The legacy you leave behind might leave future generations with an incorrect impression as well as a safety hazard.

    IMHO
