I had received three 105mm shell casings from a friend of mine and finely found a Projectile to complete this project. The casings were in bad shape as they were in his garage for many years. Thanks to my forum friends and a simple formula ( Molasses bath) I got one of the casings cleaned up and put together. The rest will follow for clean up.
The casing on the left has not been touched since acquiring them and the one on the right is cleaned and sealed.
And the finished project. The projectile is a practice round and has a delay fuse. It stands almost 30 inches tall. This is a fine addition to my ordnance section of my war room. Hope you like my new project.
Thanks for looking,
John
