Reply to "Pics of 14" Naval Railroad Gun model build"

A little update as I have been able to find some time to proceed on the 14in rail gun. So much for being complete by end of 2019!! LOL!! But, I have taken to adding more details than originally envisioned. So long as I can put in at least a couple hours each day on it, may be finished by May...…!! More I look, more detail I find, or determine from old photos. I figured as long as I am doing it, just see what is possible with items I have. With my glasses aided eyesight and arthritic fingers, it can be fun. Example, the elevating motor and gear box, on rear of right side upper carriage, is one inch long and made of ten separate parts. Many shaped from brass rod or tube, assembled with files and tweezers and Gorilla super glue. And scrounging around in my parts boxes!! Love it!! Moving forward...…..
