I am working on the supporting structure right now, once this is finish i'll tilt the barrel maximum up and down to see if it "touches" anywhere else.

 

Tehen there are still the eyebolts to go, which I don't know how small I can produce them in reality :D I'd need about 3.5mm of outer diameter :S

Re: last image above. Is that piece (white) in front correctly positioned?

Posted

you mean the one overlapping the block for the axle? yes it is tilted and one edge is sitting on that block, plus supported on the top by a bar (not yet integrated)

To be honest, I don't know why that part is even there, as the tilting point of the barrel sits just above this. :)

Something seems amiss but I can't put my finger on it just yet. I'll have to think on it.

 

Are you sure the size (height) is correct?

Posted

The measurements should be correct, heres a better view of the plan, what do you think?

I think you are on the right track after all. Could that piece be there to keep the front (muzzle?) of the cannon from falling down and making contact with the deck of the ship? It would also make a good "resting" point and prevent moisture from collecting in the barrel when not in use.

This might be, it could be a movable part, otherwise it would probably be difficult to rest on something that is almost straight below the tilting point of the barrel. or it has something to do with the cannon moving during a shot. don't know :)

 

Will see when I have time to finish the carronade, it's holiday time 8)

Moveable how? Does it rotate? What would be the fixed point of rotation?

That Cannon Seems Pretty Unstable Wheres The Attachment To Lock It In Place?

You can fire that Thing Just Dont Stand Behind IT.

Write Some Formulas

The Wheel Axle Diameter-Radius = The Tire's Inner Axle Hole

 

Weight+Force OF Gravity= Great Resistance To Motion IN The Four Wheels
