Thank you, Jose!

Hello, warship modeller!
I've made exaust duct,ladders and blast bags.
and assembled with barrels.

Very nice Song! Wood is such a beautiful and versatile, traditional ship modelers medium. Very pure in an era when much use is made of commercial PE and 3D printed items.

The construction of such small items as inclined ladders in the 1:200 scale is quite impressive!

Hi,all!
I've constructed main guns continuously. 20mm gun tub and 40mm gun tub on the no2,3 gun house.
I've made some platform under the No2 gun house.

Hi,all!
I've done 16"/45caliber main gun of battleship.
Song,

Magnificent! You have inspired me to attempt to keep making all the items by hand for my current APA project. I work with a greater number of materials, but it's still quite challenging.

Cheers! Tom

Hi,Tom!
Thank you very much your kind wards! I will see your APA project soon and good challenging too.
The next is 5"/38 caliber gun loading practice machines.
Cheers! Song.

Hi, all modeller!
I am making 5"/38 guns.
First I am making gun houses.
Song.

Very nice Song! I am surprised that you made these out of pieces, but I guess you will make the barrels moveable? These are a lot smaller than they look in the photographs. I made a Master and then resin cast for my Missouri and Alaska. I've learned some from you about making a production line for multiples. I had to make 15 36' LCVP's for the APA as well as two 50' LCM's. A dozen winches, still have to do all the 20 mm's.

That you work with unpainted wood requires a very high standard of craftsmanship! Every possible error would be there to be seen, not covered with putty or paint.
