 1861 Parrott implements

We portray (or at least try to honor) Pelham's Battery of Stuart's Horse Artillery. Long story short: we've acquired a 2.9 inch Parrott rifle and to save a little green I'm trying to find good drawings and dimensions for the implements, to include sight types (breech sight IIRC, stadia for the 3.0 in models). I've got a pretty complete woodshop and can make large holes and cuts, plus turn up to a 3 foot shaft. Any assistance, advice, condolences, etc., will be welcome.
