Plan collection:
SAMCC barrel:
SAMCC Gun (this barrel is muzzle heavy with the trunnions in the position shown in the drawing; they probably should be moved toward the muzzle a little; test the balance after turning and drilling and before locating them.)
SAMCC barrel w/32 pounder muzzle:

SAMCC Truck BraceIt has been brought to my attention that there are no dimensions given for the trunnions on the barrel drawings so I went back to the .dwg files and measured and here they are:
Trunnion diameter = .625"
Distance between ends of trunnions = 3.235"
Another discrepancy has been found in that the groove in the cheeks for the trunnion is shown too small. I will leave that to the builder to correct now that it has been pointed out.
EDIT: The drawings show the axles notched to fit cheek pieces. This leaves a very thin piece of wood on the end of the axle that will chip out. It is suggested that the cheek piece be notched for axles instead, for greater strength. D
I still have all the .dwg files for these drawings so if you would prefer to have the "real" drawings instead of the gifs I have posted for the forum, send me a PM with your email address and I will forward them.
