Well its been a while since I have posted but thought that an update on the Wooden Garrison Carriages reconstruction for the city of Cornwall Ontario is progressing.
The first unit is approaching completion-- approx 1 month of work in my shop
The frame is 6" white oak sections held together with long 3\4" cold rolled steel rods.
I will try and post some pics eventually
The casted barrels weigh close to 2 tons that are supported by these wood bases.
