   After cleaning the cannon from any debris form the last firing, using multiple implements including both wet and dry sponges, the order is:

   load the powder bag(s), ramming it or them in place for a tight fit

   load the actual shot (cannonball) , ramming it in place for a tight fit (surprisingly, the tight fit causes the explosion to do less potential damage to the barrel)

   piercing the powder bag with a wire down the vent hole

   placing the quick match\fuse in the vent hole, making contact with the powder

   touching a lit coal which is at one end of a rod called a linstock to the match, thus igniting the powder, firing the cannon, and sending the shot toward the enemy
