Another real gem there Barry! Was the gun entirely from scratch or did some of it come from the Leopold?

More a conversion than a scratch build then. Never the less, it is very well done.

Good work.

Thanks for all comments guys, i have three more gunbarrels turned they are for "kurze bruno" (a different type of rail bogie so will be all scratch built), "lange bruno" , and the siegfried mounted on two sixteen wheel bogies so will need two leopold kits for the wheels and it will be a long build.
