I hate building the 25mm AA in styrene or PE. To do so in wood is mind boggling to me. You have far, far deeper reserves of patience then I. :worship_1:

Dear Dan K
It is difficult to build all AA guns.To do so in wood is required a lot of patience.
Thank you.

Wood is a very natural and enjoyable medium to work with. Song has been doing this for many years and is a master of the craft!

Kongo and her sisters were amongst the most useful of the large Japanese ships, seeing many battles and a fine carrier escort. Their most equal correspondent in the USN were probably the Alaskas. Enough for a fine carrier escort and not too big or too slow.
