Some of my recent work, part 1
« on: February 03, 2008, 06:28:28 AM »
Here's a Cannon with interchangeable barrels and swivel mount combo.  It has 16" diameter wheels and the small black barrel is .75 caliber and the howitzer barrel is 1.75"

Dom,

 A little more about the Howitzer. Is it Bronze or painted? Did you make that one too? Fine work as always......

 
If you make it idiot proof, then, someone will make a better idiot.

The Howitzer barrel is one I made of steel, painted with antique bronze enamel [Rustoleum].  I cut it with an OD taper to the muzzle, 1-1/2" trunion diameter and it has a 13/16" diameter x 1-1/2" deep powder chamber.  Thanks For the compliment.  Dom
