Hey everyone,

I thought some would be interested in one of my new projects. It is a 1/2 scale Confederate mortar. The tube is machined out of a piece of 4" shaft that is 7" long. The 1 1/4" diameter by 6" long trunion is welded on. This little golfball shooter. I'll get a carriage done soon and post pictures. Here are some pictures of the tube. If there are any questions please feel free to ask.

Later,

I see you have a production line going. Setting up a battery in case of Round II?
 
It's a hobby of mine. I build toys for big kids to enjoy. I might be able to post pictures af a carriage this weekend. Mabey?

Do any of the moderators know when the classifides will be back up?

Thanks, Wes
 
With respects to the Classifieds, I dunno. If I had space, I'd love one. You see, it takes a golf ball and I can think of no finer way to launch one across the grass. Fore!
