Hi All, I heaven't done much VSF scratch building recently, been busy with other projects plus I have so much stuff I'm not sure how much more I really need! Anyway a bullet shaped thermos I bought for part of my brother's Christmas present inspired me to build my own version of a 'Moon Cannon'…
More pictures and some 'VSF historical' blurb here…

Once again, a VSF gamer fills me with awe by scratch-building an inspiring and breathtaking creation for a period I have zero interest in gaming. Bravo, sir! I *love* the gears. Now I'm going to go spend some time looking at the rest of your blog. - Ix |

I love the traction engine. Did you scratch build it? |

Great looking model. This genre really lends itself to imaginative modelling like this. |

The ability to take everyday objects and reimagine them as something else is a true creative gift! |
