Anybody recognize the builder of the GB Dictator on  evil-bay, the "narural rust finish" one? Looks like a fine build.

If you enlarge the second photo, it is clearly marked CARPENTER.

Too bad it was left out in the rain.

I am going to bid on it. I wanted one of those when Dom was making them. Never could get the fuds together. May not be able to now but I have to try.

This is one of the early mortars I made with a 5" diameter barrel and 1/2" thick carriage plates.  The barrel is also removable.  Dom

Dom,
Do you remember what you charged for these when you sold them? I'm just curious to see if it sells for a premium.

Makes me wish that I hadn't already sprained the budget, would look real nice as part of the battery. Didn't look at all the pics.
