I thought I might as well post this video of a Cromwell/Centaur undergoing trials, as the weather here is too c**p to film my own outdoors, currently. :/
I did post this clip once before, but that was 5 years ago. :D 'but the past is a foreign country', as LP Hartley once wrote. :D

Finally got the barrel flashing. Yes, it could be brighter, but at least it works. The barrel also recoils, and did before I began filming- :/
but the gears are a sloppy fit, and there's slippage there.
