I thought I would show a friends hard work in restoring these 25 pounder projectile "before & after" and a finished 17 Pdr, it takes time and patience but the results are as you can see

Thats some transformation ,your friend has gone to a lot of time and effort in rescuing these...thanks for showing them
 
Wow, he's an absolute professional. Great job. Did he do it by sandpaper grinding or by lathe?
Thanks for posting.
