That style a wheel may be easy to repair, but since I have nothing to start with, and the retainers appear to be cast, I would have preferred the regular old west wagon wheels. Guess I will have to hunt around the salvage yard in the spring and see if he has anything for old RCD wheels.
Derk: I believe he had the limber with an old 9pdr, but he could not say for certain that the limber originally belonged to that gun. Over the years the museum has acquired guns and limbers form a few sources, including the RCMP.
