The limber and the gun carriage both have an unusual five wide construction - I wanted the limber to have side by side seating, and six wide just looked too silly (as did building a wider seat *above* the wheels). I built the gun carriage five (...) (22 years ago, 30-Sep-02, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.loc.au)
