I know this is kind of random but I picked up a scale cannon last week at a pawn shop. There are a lot of cannon sites on the net but I was hoping someone here might know where I could find a mold to cast round balls for my new toy. Bore size is just under an inch and I figured it would be fun to play around with once it warms up a little. Any ideas?

There is a guy in England that makes anysize round ball molds for very reasonable prices. He even makes hollow ball molds. The mold make half a ball and you glue or solder together. Here's his email...E-mail jeff@ballmoulds.co.uk
I priced a .735 for 36.00 plus shipping.He said shipping would only be about 6.00. They don't use a spru plate you have to cut the spru off but are lathe bored to anysize.
Or google Jeff Tanner moulds.
