UNION 15-inch RODMAN CANNON

by George Grasse

 

 COTTAGE INDUSTRIES CIG005 1:32 RESIN KIT OF THE UNION ARMY 15-inch RODMAN CANNON

 

NOTE: Somehow during the prep stage, I lost track of the carriage wheels.  A fellow modeler came to the rescue with U. S. Sherman tank bogey wheels!  All are shown above except the two for the "turntable" carriage (not shown).  The gun cradle wheels were slightly larger than the barbette carriage wheels.  All of the latter had to be ground down a bit to fit between the extended wheel supports.

 

 


 

NOTE: This photo and the following show the completed model.
