Last week one of my friend asked me to repair (replace missing canon) Bofors Naval Gun souvenir .I’ve know idea what scale and where he got it from. I look at it….so kiuttt.very nice.So,I’ve a plan to scratch built mine….I can just make a mold from it and recast……BTW I don’t want to betray other craftsman creations….

Here a few photo of the progress…….

Mat Lobang,

Aku dah tak tau nak kata apa! Errr... kalau aku bagi meriam buluh, hang boleh cast? Great job bro. By the way, that is a rapid 57mm Bofors. If I'm not mistaken, 120 shots per minute. Please correct me anyone?

Bilko.
