started on the jib boom , the main strut is a piece of my sons knex kit, which still needs shaping and the cross strut is brass tube with rc plane quick links, this is fixed on the main strut by using a piece of bigger tube slid over the top ,and a bit of brass sheet wrapped around it

top notch ice :thumbup:

really cool seeing all these bergpanzers coming about or is it a bad omen for the battling year ahead maybe "clank recovery " could be a viable venture are you guys selling shares yet?
