Re: Operation Tamy T1 face lift
Just read the whole thread. This is a remarkable rebuild and totally puts my complete Tamiya T1 teardown and rebuild in a month project to shame. I went the lazy route and just kept everything basically stock as I wanted it up and running for the start of the battling season but I kind of want to now start with a fresh Tamiya T1 and just spend the time trying to do a lot of the stuff I have learned from reading about your build

Burger_Patrol1, I am still here, even though you are w-a-a-y beyond using the "ferrule."
Like Panzermechaniker, I am amazed.

Re: Operation Tamy T1 face lift
Cheers to those who are just following Mr. Burgers work now. I remember when I searched and found this thread a while back, such inspirational work for me. I borrowed many ideas and tried new things like weld beads/seams.
Keep at it Mr. Burger
Keep at it Mr. Burger

Thanks MrChef, I am so glad some of the technics that i have learned from other peeps and passed on have helped other tankers with ideas for various builds.
