Here's my latest addition - a Canadian 18 Pdr shell casing, dated 7 Feb 1917 production with C Broad-Arrow stamp (among others). This one caught my eye as a piece of PPCLI Regimental Trench Art, having been modified into a vase with the addition of Brass Handles and a PPCLI "Marguerite" Cap Badge silver-soldered onto the basic casing. I find it quite fugly (depending on your perspective), so have relegated it to the floor where it holds my collection of Regimental Swagger Sticks.

It's not as bad as some I've seen. I get trench art but I don't like it. I like stuff the way it was made. I've saved a lot of nice pieces from being lamps. This 18pdr was a fugly lamp.

So I've got someone who is willing to 3D print a Tiger Tank KWK 36 shell but needs the measurements. Does anyone have the measurements for one of these tank rounds?

There is a few FB groups that cater to us ordnance folks. One is WWII Ordnance and other stuff.

The lads on there know their stuff and I'm sure could help you out.
