        im not a sketchy physics user, but cant you rotate the modle to one side, apply the joint and then rotate it back? i just saw it on a vid, so mght well be wrong.

          I had to explode and re-group the wooden parts. It was messed up somehow.

                Check out this cannon that I made. It's self moving and quite realistic. Different reloading mechanism, hope it's intuitive.

                  nice! it's very powerful, though i found quite hard to understand how it fires...

                    Maybe you can fire some flowers and it will be perfect πŸ˜‰ 😎

                    Very cool engine πŸ‘

                      Showing hidden geometry and turning on transparency will reveal all secrets of the cannon.
