Hello from Washington State USA.

Post by Packy »

Hello All....
You all must be very proud, the site is full of great insight and excellent ideas and information.
I am retired, so this gives me a great opportunity to practice my hobbies that we sometimes put off for a later date.
I have just recently gotten into the world of tanks, It all started when I built a landing craft,Then I found myself needing a tank to put in it. And here I am.
I found a used Heng Long Walker, that is need of some repair, so I planted my own seed.
Looking forward to the Forum.

Welcome to the forum. Retirement is a wonderful thing, it gave me the incentive to start Rc tanking. Incidentally, have you noticed that we have a section for rc boats? You could show us your landing craft there. :D

Tim Hi, I think that most British people of a certain age know only one thing about "Tacoma" and that is a short piece of newsreel showing the recently opened "Tacoma Narrows Bridge" self destructing, :/
I have a great affection for the Pacific Coast of Oregon and Washington, And if you could do something about those exploding Volcanoes I just might visit more often :lolno:
Welcome to the Forum :thumbup: :clap: :wave:
I expect you will have lots of questions, Well we have lots of answers,
A number of Landing Craft builds adorn your Forum although I would not be surprised if the pictures have been removed :crazy: But still worth a visit.
I hope you enjoy it here, Sometimes I do :lolno:
Shaun.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

A warm welcome from a freezing Scottish Highlands, Tim (even though I'm not home just now..). :thumbup:
It's not just the tanks, the techniques, and the talk you may find addictive here. Overall, the Forum is a good fit for those of us in the 'Golden' years. (Or maybe that should read 'Pot metal' and 'ABS years'.... :haha: ). At the same time, it draws hobbyists from all age groups located in every part of the Planet...with the exception, so far, of Antarctica- a great place for tracked vehicles. :D
