Minecraft Cannon

This is an upload of a fairly basic cannon. I am posting it here because after browsing through the schematics available. I really didnt see any cannons, and they are soooooo much fun.


Fires 21 TNT total, 18 as the primary charge, 3 as projectiles, and is completely automatic.


*EDIT* I kept the TNT count low on purpose. A larger cannon can fire the projectile outside of the games draw distance, meaning the TNT never actually lands. The "timer" on the projectile charge is set to 24 ticks (about 2.4 seconds) which is not quite the maximum, but helps keep the footprint of the device a little smaller.*


I have added a few signs on the cannons structure to help avoid misplacement of TNT while loading. So hopefully its at least mostly user friendly, and should be fun for those less experienced with using a cannon in minecraft. I will upload a couple of pics here to show it loaded (Yes, they were taken at night... Im very very lazy). Again, I hope its pretty user friendly.


Im fairly sure the design is at least mostly original, though Ive watched so many videos while learning to build a decent cannon. If anyone elses design, in whole or in part, is uncredited here. I apologise it's purely unintentional.


So... enjoy
