Our Assistant Scout Leader Phil Hallett came up with the brilliant idea of creating a gun carriage, that could be used in our very own field gun runs. The ideas started to develop and pallet wood started pilling in. Every scout night we did a bit more, we sanded, cut measured, painted, and sanded again and painted again...It seemed to go on forever. Finally the finished article was unveiled!!! It looked fantastic. It was built so all of the parts would come apart for when we did the run.

The gun consists of a gun and a carriage - carriage at the front and gun connected on the back. The whole thing is made from wood, and has a T-Bar for pulling as well as ropes on each side.
