Part 4/8:
Johnny reveals that he is fabricating custom components, such as machining a shaft to mount a unique base in a container, enabling him to house additional artifacts. His aim is to create a sturdy display platform or mounting solution, possibly for even larger weapons or artillery, like an Orlicon cannon—a type of anti-aircraft gun from the WWI or WWII era.
He specifies that he wants thicker, more substantial piping—preferably a quarter-inch thick—to ensure stability and durability. His mechanical ingenuity shines as he plans to jury-rig parts to create a functional mount, demonstrating both his resourcefulness and passion for authentic restoration.
