CL-52 update

Hi All;

Great day with the tremors, actually got enough control to thread a needle. If you aren't afflicted with the condition, you have no idea what that takes. The forward 1.1" mounts had to be redrawn and are now in place. The guns are partially drawn. The remaining 20mm tubs are cut and will be assembled shortly. Still have to get around to placing the last two five inch turrets, but that should be fairly straight forward. The drawings are now backdated to the early mounts. There are significant differences from the later ships in the class. For example no shell ejection chutes on the back of the turret and no protected hood on the top rear of the mount. Then on to the stacks, which are going to be beasts.

Regards, rjccjr
