Probably be a bit hard to come by a pirate ship nowadays. However,
you could always make several of them, mount 'em on the back of a
flatbed truck, and then give a broadside. Politician would b my first
target of choice.

I am, therefore I think.

I saw a pretty nice looking coffee table that was a pirate's cannon in
a
wooden carriage, under a glass top. It looked like construction lumber
with a dark stain and the cannon itself was laminated and turned 2Xs
about 6" in diameter. The cannon probably would have looked beter
had it been from a solid piece, but all the more reason to do one's
own variation.
