Come on now, what good is a bucket with a hole in it?

Its not a bucket, its a parachute! That thing is going to swing around like crazy on your car, not to mention when your parked in the rain!

Already scoped that out. It doesn't really flop around at all back there. Must be something to do with the aerodynamics (sp?) or something else I'll never understand anyway, and if it fills with water I'll never be thirsty. Ask Bogey about bein' thirsty in a tank.

At first I was afraid it would bang around and make all kinds of racket, but it just hangs there and kind of lifts a bit at speed but other than that it rides real nice (I had a buddy of mine follow me down the freeway for a bit. I should get some video of that to show ya. I'll see what I can do. Good excuse to use the Mobius).

The paint is drying as I write this.

OK, I think you guys saw me put the bucket on the Jagdtiger and you know those buckets come two in a pack so I'm sure you're all just dying to know what the hell the old hippie did with the second bucket!



I should've ordered two packs, but I've figured out how I'd like to do the spare tracks on this JP, so I'm gonna call Erik and see if he can get his hands on a set of the spare track hangers that come on the Jagdtiger. They're metal and if I can get them as a set they'll be absolutely perfect for the Jagdpanther.

And I can order more buckets, too.
