Hi Riv. Followed your build on the SD222 and found it most helpful when doing mine. The biggest weakness I found was the self-tapping nuts and screws - not good ! The flashing on both metal and resin parts was also quite a pain - I used quite a bit of filler. Happy with the end-result though. Look forward to seeing yours when you get around to it. Cheers. Chris.
P.S. Is Rob still on the tanking circuit ?

Have to agree with the self tapping screws a very bad idea I replaced mine with BA screws and tapped out the hull so I could simply screw the parts together as for the flashing you seem to have got a bad one the hull on the 223 is better than the 222 I built.
Yes Robert is still around will tell him you have been asking, I know he will be attending the annual UKTC BBQ at Mark 1 tanks this coming weekend but unfortunately I will not be able to attend, Couldn't believe how little you got for the Mouse on evilbay it should have gone for more
