Cool, I look forward to whatever you find!
Five Star also makes IJN portable fire extinguishers secured to be bulkheads on the weather decks.
Five Star makes some beautiful renditions of these with resin canisters and brass holding racks.
Tiny in 1/350, the real units seem to have been rather large and unwieldy; it must have been a challenge for Imperial Navy sailors to muscle these things around in an emergency!

I'm impressed. I missed that completely.
The only place that I can recall seeing an arrangement like the one made by FiveStar is on one of Tone's forward bulkheads, but too much clutter obscures what is mounted on the deck beneath it.
I'm going to research further; I'm intrigued.
