Are there any vids of Lizzies Artisan working?

In all the scenes I've watched I don't think I've ever seen it rotating. Or haven't I looked hard enough?

There have been a few from what I remember, but please don't ask me to point you to where they are! Sorry.

Well after following the design and build of this class from an early stage I've just found out that my eldest Son who is completing his Phase2 training in the RN may be part of the crew for HMS POW.

Ace stuff, must be doing well if they're highlighting him for a ship like that.

Delivery of a piano from bedhampton pianoshop to the Portsmouth naval base,then on board the ship to the ward room..
interesting challenge through the bulk heads

I wonder if that's a CIWS Piano? Glad to see we have our priorities sorted. At least lack of PoW news is being made up by this exciting news!
