Lindsay's amazing Takao model inspired me to take some
pictures of the Quad 40 mount I recently built, so I posted the while I was at
it to:

Enjoy!

Good work again Dan!!

Very realistic model of the Quad 40 mount. I like the blue sailors and the
way you have created the gun barrels. I guess you have put flexible tubes
inside. Are the barrels movable in elevation? The railing around the back is
also impressive with the innovative use of many small parts. I ask myself
what size will a complete ship have on which these guns can be installed.
