Clean starter cannon, functional and fun
Maybe as time goes on, we may see some competition between you too?

Where are you going to go from this creative first build?
Perhaps a sprinkler valve cannon?
I hear nail polish bottles fit some barrels

Orange Blossom is a bit misleading don't ya think?
Person:
Oh my it's so cute, can I touch?
KRN:
Yeah sure go ahead, it wont bite, it's called Orange Blossom
Person:
Oh must be perfectly safe and friendly then, lemme just have a look in the barrel while I fire it...
