    Miniature cannon plans???

    Anybody know where I can get plans for Miniature civil war naval cannons, (the ones with the little wheels)?

    Thanks in advance, and,
    Y'all have a gooden...jes

    Remind me to never get on your bad side, Jes. I'd hate to have a miniature civil war cannonball volleyed at me.

    I'd be tempted to go to one of your nearby battlefield parks and take some measurements, but I expect the naval cannons are quite a bit different from the ones on the ships.

    Good luck...

      Dunno what era he patterned this one from, but thought I'd post it ...



      I really should have a quarter sitting beside it so you can see how 'miniature' it really is. The string to raise and lower the barrel is broke, but it did/does actually work. The barrel also has a spring loaded plunger that will shoot bb's across the room

      If it ain't broke.. don't fix it!!!... but you can always 'hop it up'

          Wow! When I was in high school I made one of those in metal shop. It looked so good and I was so proud of myself. I wish I still had it.
