DD-793 update

Hi All;

Well, here's this weeks adventure. Way back when I was a mere youth of forty-five or so, this stuff was a matter of a couple of hours work. Now, not so much. there are two spars on the after stack cap, which carry the ECM and IFF gear. The forward spar has two very light gray domes. The cover was on and off the starboard unit while they worked on the rotator gears. So, it seemed neat to try to include the unit with the cover off. After several sad attempts to do the spars in card, it was necessary to resort to bamboo slivers. Just got the forward spar mounted. That's the larger one. The smaller on is still drying. Here are a couple of shots of the forward spar in place. The first shot shows the stack cap befor the spars. The other two show the spar in place.

Regards rjccjr
