Model of a Carriage for a 36-Pounder Carronade, Model of a sliding gate for a 30-pound carronade. The body tapering to the front consists of two cheeks with fittings and rings, with two very heavy wooden blocks in between. The cheeks have a curved top and an elliptical cut-out below. The ears with tapas are mounted on top of the front intermediate block, on the rear fitting with the track for the elving screw. The spout rests on friction blocks under the cheeks, to limit the recule. Two small rollers on a hinge against the rear can raise the rear of the spout with the help of the baking iron, the front then also rests on two rollers, which are arranged in front of the front crossbar, and can thus easily be rolled on board.
