Gunnery pit progress. Lewis gun mount nears completion.

Looking more realistic all the time, John!

Looking at this attempt we are not pleased. I shall tear this apart tomorrow and try again. We have never attempted a gunnery pit before, as such, we are in midst of a learning process.

John - what do you intend to do, to improve on your design ? ...

First make a cardboard silhouette of the Lewis gun in a scale to match the plane. Then build the mounting mechanism to match the size of the gun. I have been working bass ackwards.

John, please tell Gumby to wire it for A/C current. All the gun turrets on the B17 were A/C motors.

The Scarff ring was muscle powered. Your leg muscles traversed it left of right. Like dancing with a Lewis gun?
