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.

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.
