Cannons Steel Brass Aluminum

[jjr2001]

In 2018 I posted a couple of cannon that I made in the shop. Today I am going to catch up on my cannon posting.
Model Cannon and carriage
Here we go:
The first one is a copy of a coastal defense cannon.
Next we have a Whitworth with an aluminum barrel and walnut carriage.
Three ship cannon of which 2 are steel and one is brass. All on walnut carriages.
Last and best ( I like breeches that operate) is a loose copy of a Whitworth with a threaded breech.
The Whitworth has a manual firing mechanism but the cannon is for display only and not for firing, barrel is aluminum!

Rest of the story to follow.
