Model of An 8-pounder Gun and Two Carriews. Model of a canon of £ 8 on rolling horse, incomplete. The 35 cm long loop has a 17 mm caliber, a pierce ring, the grape is flat from behind. Inscriptions are engraved on the course, along with two crossed anchors and palm branches. The cheeks of the roller horse, with four stages and an elliptical cut-up at the bottom, are further apart from each other before and are connected by the calf, the axis and a crossbar between, and moreover through two bolts that go through the cheeks through two bolts. The breast piece, the stelwig and the elevation plateau, which must support one of the bolts and back on the sole plate, are missing. The rear response is wide and immediately serves as a sole plate. The front wheels are slightly larger than the rear wheels. The second rolling horse consists of two parts. The upper part consists of the cheeks and the calf, identical to the first rolling horse, but put on a wide base plate. The bottom unit consists of the axis of a wide base plate. The upper part is connected to the bottom piece with a spindle bolt in front and can therefore be placed on the bottom piece, for which both parts are provided with a brass circle segment with holes, so that it can be made with a pen in pre-placed positions. A small roller in the middle of the base plate of the part facilitates the turning of the upper. The small wooden wheels are all of the same diameter. Scale 1: 6 (Scale on model).
