Ordnance is now assembled and painted ,very pleased that it all went together by hand , nice and smooth, no hammers or blocks required !
Shield is at the blasters so I am hoping to get that back in the next couple of days so I will prep and prime but will not top coat until it is ready to be fitted. Rob......................rnixartillery Last edited by rnixartillery; 27-07-19 at 20:58. |

Rob.
I was reviewing this thread and took a closer look at Post 31, as the curved metal plate forward of the tyre caught my eye. Is this part of a braking system, a mud clearing system, or something entirely different? David |

Is that a British thing Rob? The mud cleaner. You see it on No.27 limbers but not the 25 pndr gun.

Nice work Rob, I have a question which you might be able to answer the 2 pdr slipper block I have doesn't have the Middle keyed top to it like yours, I'll post two pics one of yours and one of mine, wouldn't be that mine perhaps came out a armoured vehicle rather than artillery piece?

It was a standard fitting ,there are some guns in Oz with the brackets fitted . I'm sure Scrivo's portee gun has them fitted and also Robs in Cairns to name a few although some brackets were fitted up side down underneath the frame .Lots of preserved Guns also have them missing completely.
