Graf Spee Naval Gun Battery

Here is a barrel I made as an attachment for my anti-tank pillbox to make it into a Graf Spee Naval Gun Battery.  It is 1" of 3/8" tubing and 1" of 1/4" tubing glued together and cut at an angle to make the barrel slant upward.  Obviously it needs to be painted.

Barbed Wire 1

I have started working on barbed wire sections for my Sturmkompanie. I will be making extra sections for use in our Normandy Campaign. Here is what I have done so far.

I still need to add texture to the base and paint it, but I am pleased with the results so far.  Each of the two coils of wire is made up of two 42" pieces of 28 gauge wire wrapped around each other using a drill to spin them, then wrapped around a permanent marker and stretched to fit over the crosses, which are each made of two 3/4" long pieces of L shaped plastic.  The base is a 2" by 8" piece of MDF.
