I just got back from Andrew Haya's place in Barry and the project is back on schedule. A big thank you to Andrew for getting the Shermie up and running and to his good lady for her hospitality :thumbup:

As I thought, I fried the new board I bought, so another, with the corresponding wiring, sorted the problems. 8) A smoke generator was also purchased and even I can fit that! :{ :D Now that its a runner, the fun bit begins with the detailing :)

You mean you aren't using RX18's to generate smoke?!?

Ha! not this time :D The smoke is now coming from where it supposed to be coming from. :haha: Despite the mishaps, I am learning about the electrics and I already have converted turret for my next project. 8) So far, I'm enjoying the 'work' and the project has moved on a pace since I got it back. transfers for the Queen's Bay's are a bit of a problem, but having modelled static Sherman's since 1973, I am adept at making my own. Pictures a bit later on. ;)
