William Green Plans

Hello DD, those two cannon are really nice looking. I know you spent many hours working those up. I had the pleasure to know Bill Green and he gave me a bunch of cannon plans but I like mortars since they don't have any complicated wheels etc. to make. I like the looks of Bill's Dahlgren guns and they have a pretty simple mount. Maby I will tackle one of those after I build my current project....a bowling ball mortar!
By the way, Bill Green died a few years ago. Thanks again for the plans you sent me!

Thank you George for hosting these plans.  These are a good set of  basic plans for the home shop modeler to build a small replica cannon.  I have upscaled the plans and built 1 inch guns also.

The plans in Reply #2 above are hosted on an http site, not an https site.  Many modern browsers ASSUME that http sites are insecure/dangerous, whether they are or aren't, and will block access.  Usually there are browser options that will turn off the blocking which can be done for the duration of your plan downloading activity and then the blocking can be resumed if you like.
