    NZ, have a look for Stafford Wheel and Carridge on the net. Jeff makes new ones and restores cannons so should have some on his site. I was lucky enough to get a personal tour of his factory last time I was in the US and he is a top bloke, so he would more than likely help you. Its no good making a cannon without the carridge, so looking forward to some photos of the WIP.
    Rgds,
    Crocy.

    My brother in law had a HJ 1 tonner ute with wooden side boards. I always wanted to make some replica cannons and cut gun ports in the side boards.

    Default Cannon

    Australian Toymaker volume 2 has a project on this by Bob Allison. Not quite full size but just scale it up. It explains how to turn the barrel, make the wheels and carriage, trunions and bearings. A 4 page spread with material list, all you need.
