Re: Cromwell Mk IV Build
Thanks c.rainford73. Yes it was a steep learning curve. From initial planning the Black Prince is going to be even more demanding!

Some serious engineering and fabrication on display here Peter, with a truly outstanding result. I can only imagine the number of hours gone into a labour of love like this. I look forward to your next one!

Thanks - Just spent a couple of hours at Bovington measuring the Black Prince. A job for the winter nights drawing some plans!

It just shows how good an information base the internet is. I had no training - just asked questions on Google, plus having the time since redundancy!
