Great mortar.  Is it plated or painted?

Tropico, I though you would, So did I!!  Thats why I had it made to look your Brooks mortar... The Bore is a 1.75" Golfball mortar... 8)

Yeah, He did a nice Job !! You should give him a shot with your next project... Dominick Carpenter on our venders list... Just let him know what you need... I like the fact he can create what you want... He's actually working on another 19th century signal field cannon from a few picture I sent him,  similar to the one I recently posted here...

later,
