Hello Dear Friends,

 

Thank you for the motivating comments.

 

Here is an update of my Report.
It's about the manufacturing of gun carriages for the carronades.

These are made of serviceberry.

Hello,

here I show the continuation of the construction of the carriages of the carronades.

First, this is about the making of the recesses for the metal fittings.

 

 

Next is the production of a metal fitting for pivoting.

It also works outdoors under the sun sail on the terrace.

Because it's much more fun.

The sorting box is filling up slowly but surely with the parts of the carronades.
