I am trying to make myself 3d-printed QF 13-pdr shrapnel and HE shells to complete my WW1 display.
I have the original fuzes and cartridge casings, so I only need dimensions for the body. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to locate a proper plan, so I had to make do with inaccurate drawings from manuals and pictures, which I then dimensioned from the known calibre, the fuzes and adapters.
I've assumed that both shells have the same overall dimensions and that the driving band is identical to that on the 18-pdr.
Can someone please tell me wherever the plans I came up with are correct? Thank you!
