I can't really think of a reason why the piston returns to the original position!! any ideas?? I made a transparent QEV coaxial cannon out of the preform of a bottle. This was inspired by a Nighthawkinlight's project, although I added a transparent barrel and had to make everything work with a wooden piston and o-ring seal. The breech seal is just a piece of rubber from the inner tube of a bike tire. Thanks for watching!

In Bocas del Toro, every encounter feels serendipitous, and meeting the charismatic and kind-hearted Italian, Maddalena, was no exception. As we chatted, she shared that the signature dish of her hometown in Lombardy is none other than the iconic Risotto alla Milanese with Ossobuco. While traditionally considered a winter dish in Italy, enjoying it in the Caribbean’s "winter" warmth of 24°C was a special treat. Imagine creamy, silky rice infused with rich homemade broth, the unmistakable aroma of saffron, refreshing white wine, and a generous sprinkle of authentic Parmigiano Reggiano (of course—what self-respecting Italian wouldn’t have Parmesan onboard, even in the Caribbean?). Paired with tender ossobuco, slow-cooked to perfection, this dish became an unforgettable memory. Maddalena also teased me with stories of other risotto variations, but those will have to wait for another day. If you’re a fan of Italian cuisine and global culinary adventures, save this post, and let’s bring a taste of Lombardy to your table!

Starling Burgess got it so right with his 1928 design for the 59ft staysail schooner NIÑA. When her present owners decided to build a replica in 2004, the only change was to the construction method - strip plank rather than traditional plank of frame. Burgess's hull and rig design were sensibly faithfully reproduced resulting in one of the most perfect blue water cruisers for her size imaginable.
