Anyone try building a a gyn for artillery to remount barrels? It couldn't be to much and because I am missing a wheel going to have the gun blocked up as if a wheel was destroyed and cfew is waiting for another to be brought up. I already have 1 of these so thought about having the crew set up a gyn to raise the gun for the missing wheel.

That looks good. I love these kind of extras on the wargame table.

Have a pretty good looking timber frame and metal parts but the handles have me stumped. Tried tapered ends of toothpicks on small brass hex nuts but didn't look right.
