[MassHistPres] cannon restoration

[Steve at Jellcor.com]

I asked a friend who is knowledgeable about this and she said:

 

"Steen Cannons in Ashland, KY specialize in restoration of this type of
cannon, both barrel and carriages.  Everything would be done according to
the original specifications.  They are the best, doing most of the stuff in
Gettysburg.

 

Also Paulson Brothers, but mainly carriages and equipment. 

 

Trail Rock Ordnance in TN, but they mainly sell new carriages.  

 

The best thing would be to query the editor of Artilleyman Magazine, Larry
Babits or Jack Melton.

Brimfield is looking into having some conservation work done on 4 Parrott
Gun cannons which are part of our 170 year old Civil War monument. Does
anyone know of any preservation consultants we could contact who could
address this?

 

Thanks,

Mike DeFalco
