Caisson


So I want to use Trevor as an artillery towing tractor but what artillery to use?  I am starting with the 12 pound Napoleon from Eagle Games.  It's from their ACW sets and I think several others.


Take off the wheels and set them aside for now.


Cut off the gun and put it in the spares box.  Put the wheels back on.


Now you have a caisson for the gun.


The caisson is to take the weight of the gun carriage off the tongue of the towing vehicle.


I anticipate that I will build a small ammo box at a later time for the caisson, but not today.
