superstructure coming along well mate!

One of the guys here is getting a hull off Tim too he will be building the Haruna.Where are you getting your spining bits from? I just received the shafts/A frames, props and Aluminum rudders for mate Haruna from GT Sitek in UK....The 1/72 Warspite running set is virtually identical to the Kongo setup...just tell George I sent you!

Cheers Bruce

Hi HVYCGN.

Now that is interesting news on Tim and somebody else ordering a Haranua hull.

I have almost given up getting mine..................
My Kirishima hull is fully paid for, but as we know Tim is struggling a bit...........

Yes, the shiny bits are gone now............
