MG 08 cylinder water can?
MG 08 cylinder water can?
Has anyone ever tried to make a copy of the MG 08 cylindrical water can, the early water can for the NGO eight? This would be the first pattern water cannon that was out early in World War I.

I would ask "Rick-Keller" possible who he sold his MG08 to from his collection (?).....the Great-War-Militaria Museum (when it was still active, I believe had one of these steam-condensation-cylinders.
If not.....possibly ask Hays Otopalic at the Museum in Bosie, Idaho if he has one that he could photograph for you and take measurements (?)...a pssible option (?).
