i cut each body 6"x4" . on the ends i made a 15°angle cut i hope you can see, and the sides i went up about an inch and cut a 15°angle as well.
Tops "gunner"

on this step, i cut the top 3"x4" with the same 15°angle as the bottom all sides. a router table was a great project i made a month ago. anyway
Ataching Top (gunner) to Body

here took some thinking and im sure someone will have a better design than mine but here ya go. i cut a 1/2 hole in the top in the center, about 3/4" in. then same in the body but about 1 3/4" down. then i took a washer that fit the 1/2 dowel x 2 1/2 ". Glued in the top and it pivits in the bottom as you see in the pic
Finish and Wheels

the wheels are just 1 1/2 " bought from local craft store, with the pegs. measuring this was hard to get the same. i took a long (piano hinge) no pic sorry and laid it flat on bottom and the other end up like an L shape if you get the idea. i glued in the peg and wheel turns free. I used boiled linn seed oil, and bulls eye shalack again not spelled right im sure.
Finished

and here are my final pics, have 3 more ready togo. i will be adding a small peice to the top of the gunner for a hatch just for looks not operational. hope someone can use as i am finding things to make everyday. let me know what ya think please and thank you for looking
