WTB - Resin 105 mm projo
Where can I buy 105 mm resin projectiles?
I need 15 each of them - projectiles only.
I have the cases and am making a display.

Re: WTB - Resin 105 mm projo
I just had an idea earlier today.
I will post information - once I get the "bugs" worked out, if anyone is interested.
Teaser - Did you know that a 2 liter Pepsi bottle is approximately 105 mm in diameter.

Re: WTB - Resin 105 mm projo
This is what I came up with.
A 2 liter Pepsi bottle with the label removed.
About 3 tablespoons of green paint inside the bottle.
Rotate / move the bottle until the paint is evenly distributed on the inside of the bottle.
A stainless steel "whatchamacallit" cup from Walmart hot glued on the top to cover the screw off cap. (I don't know what the cup is for. I just have a bunch of them in my Shop. If I remember correctly, they were about 25 cents each.)

Thank you.
I enjoyed asking folks what they thought the projectiles were made from - especially the look on their faces, when I told them.

May I hijack my own thread?
A real projectile is located between the 90mm and the 105mm on the bottom right of the photo (brass case). I have one (OK, maybe a couple), but not 15.
