M3 Grant Turret

Post by Woz »

Not a complete build but I thought I'd share it here.

A couple of days ago someone on RCU asked for a Grant turret so I thought I'd have a go (I wanted one for my Lee anyway)

Anyway a few nights playing on the PC and a days printing this is the result.

Thanks

I originally went for the Lee as the Grant turret looked too complicated. In the end it only took 5 nights from starting the Cad work to having the finished piece. Now I need to go lie down.
