Wow Chris, theres nothing wrong with them, superb work

[boatman]

last shot here an im fairly dissappiont with my efforts as yes the guns will elevate but the brass gun barrells are not heavy enough to get the guns to gome back down so i will just have to use the ole mark one finger to push the guns back down but nr every thing went wrong building this an one of the tiny one mm leds has packed up too very dissappionted but now anyway cant do any more till i get the gunfire sound unit so these guns are on hold

WELL Cheers Mick but im not happy as things just dint go right from the very benning of this as im not use to failure but just had a thought tomorrow i will have to fit on the 3 inch gun its gears an sailwinch servos so that it will train left an right an on both turrets i will fit all the danger decalls later on

Well I think that is pretty damn good Chris, as you say you can always come back to it later if you feel like it.
Just bear in mind that we are our own worst critic.
