well on to the turret basket.
first is the ring that fits into bace of the turret and the turret opening on the main deck of the tank.
I had to trim the inside of the turret opening and the opening in the main hull and trimmed the ring a bit to get a good fit so the turret can easily be taken off and on while still being held in place without any side movement on the turret and turn nicely.

.

turret floor and two main side supports.



cross beam



floor attached to ring and other supports added.










ammunition box




fixed in place







50. cal ammo box and fire extinguisher




turret hatch seats.









the gunner gets a better seat.











that's it for now.
