Thank you!
Yes padding is expected! whatis the next step!
I look forward to the last tests in water.
Once testing is complete, I can definitely fix the chamber.
I have to do the piece of barrel 50cm too.

I will do everything but once done, once it is painted, very soon because the construction is moving fast.

Nice, something to look forward to :)

For the ball and arrowhead if the main target is the beam make sure there's pleny of wood behind it to record the effects of any spalling.
