Model of a Carriage for a 4-Pounder Gun, Model of a gun for a 4-pound gun for use on land and on a ship, the loop itself is missing, as well as some attributes. The central body consists of two cheeks connected by a long soleplate and a calf. The adjusting wedge runs in a groove in the soleplate, where it cannot be lifted, a rack is mounted below the wedge so that the wedge is moved forward and backward with a crank with an endless screw. In the fieldaffaff composition, the cheeks are extended to the rear with a tail, which is attached with brackets, with a spindle hole. An ash body is slid through the front cheeks, onto which two large wheels are placed. To transform it into ship's foot, tail, ashes and wheels are removed and the body is placed on a small bottom. This lower gaff consists of two low cheeks connected by a vertical calf and the ashes, which are attached to the cheeks with removable brackets. The wooden wheels are double and the rear wheels are smaller than the front wheels. Scale 1: 6 (Obreen)., Jochem Pietersz.
