Good Morning, Eddy,
That is an excellent idea, Sir. I will pick up a roll of the removable thick double sided this week. I think that having the small stowage items made in to 3 or 4 larger subsections will help with the stability of the lash down quite a bit. Also, the amount of 'rope', needed. *chuckles*

Good Morning, Scalawag,
Thank you very much, Sir. Your help has also been really handy and spot on with the electrical and detail issues. I'm thinking dust and light sand on the running gear for 'light' weathering. I'll need to visit a hobby shop for a can of that and some brush on textures. The antenna should be mounted this afternoon once I get my carbide drill set out. The micro drill set I employ with the yankee drill is too frangible for use with the excellent metal Schumo mount.

Painless

Good Morning, CH,
Thank's Doc. Coming from someone as familiar and well versed in Shermans as you, I am 'well chuffed' with your praise and how good the tank has turned out. ;o)

Still one of my favorite threads, just finished going through it a fourth time. Amazing work.

Eric,
Thank you, Sir. I've learned a few more tricks since 'Maxene' and incorporate more of the Tamiya sprues of parts into my builds now than Schumo. Especially the clear lens pieces and headlight and taillight housings. I'm following your Sherman build and it is going to be a doozy, I think. ;o)
