Howdy all, cannon base is moving along slowly but as I said it is fairly intricate but I'm getting there. I had to bolt it together to see if it lined up. There is still heaps still to do.

I'm dismayed that you're only doing this as a one off.

Would be much easier at this stage to set up a production line and make several, God knows we'd all like one.

Hi Tony, I am making 2 at the same time and any forming dies I have made I will keep but most is cut by hand. One I will keep and the other I will sell after completion. One 2 pounder carrier will have a windsor that I will keep and the other will be stock but they will both have their guns. The other carrier is 6002 from luke drysdale.
Colin.
