First I found an old hand operated drill press

Then I cut it down for my needs

Then I sand blasted and painted it

Then I started the trailer

Then I got a pillow block bearing and mounted the shaft

Then I built the barrels out of schedule 80 and welled a 3/8 end on it

Fire work mortars going off I built this so I could shoot them at all kinds of angles and look cool doing it mortars are lame when the only go up

I knew when I found this at a junk store my elevation prayers were answered and for some elbow grease paint and 15 bucks I can't complain
