Endeavour Swivel Gun

Hi Cliff,

I had my birthday yesterday & we took the cannon to the field to celebrate! Some of the village came out to see it being fired. What an amazing result. It was absolutely fantastic! I know it looks a bit mad max at the moment but was ideal for getting it into the field & back out.

Thank you so much for your work.

Thank you Cliff ! Your creation is a beautiful piece of functional art. It is pure joy every time I fire it. I have six other cannons but your creation is the star of the show every time. It functions perfectly and safely every time and despite weighing over 600 pounds it moves so easily across any terrain. A testament to your expert beautiful craftsmanship.

Mr Craig Kidd: 1/2 scale short twelve complete

I was surprised when my wife (who also actually originally asked the question, "why have you bought that?") when it arrived said "that's far too nice to go outside" so it now has a prominent place indoors and is a real talking piece when we have visitors. The craftsmanship is simply second to none. 02/01/15

Hearts of Oak Historical Re-Enactment Group: 34" & Endeavour Swivel gun

"We have picked up the swivel gun today from the proof house, attached are some photo's of the proof marks and its first seating on the boat. Once again I would like to thank you for producing such high quality items."

Both of your guns are a huge hit with a huge bang. We are going to France later this month, both guns are coming with us for a battle in Fouras 14/4/14

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:

Mr Ted Barclay: Swivel Gun and Pair of 42" Broadside guns

Your previous gun, the swivel gun, was a real work of art and engineering. If anything these
two beauties surpass your previous creation. I cannot be more pleased. I think that my wife is getting used to them being under the kitchen table as a temporary measure.

Mr. Arthur Cain : 34" Cast Iron Model

"I’ve just unpacked the cannon it's a absolute cracker the finish is spot on. the quality of your casting is of the highest standard I cannot praise it too highly enough, a first rate job well done. ( I will now have to save up for the bow chaser ) ." My best regards Arthur

Mr. Russell Pritchett : 34" Cast Iron Lined Barrel

Hi Cliff. Went home at weekend ,first time in 2 months. Saw the barrel first class job. Very happy indeed, many thanks. Russell

Mr. Mick Barker: 34" Cast Concrete/Steel Barrel with Carriage

I was amazed at the detail and accuracy of the scaled model which had been made in a most professional manner, almost feel tempted to fire it, but no it will stand guard on my lawn to repel unwanted visitors.

Thank you once again Cliff and I wish you all success with your business.

P S when i get the chance I will purchase the fireable version from you...........Regards Mick
