I've got the WSN T-34 but if you have the HL one then it'll be handy to have the measurements to that as well.

Made some thinner light guards out of an old sweet tin and did a spot of Milliput welding-

Tried out the tools on the back. The tool layout on the Hybrid is different to the M4a3 and going off a lot of photos there isn't one definitive way of putting on them on. Still needs vents, fire extinguishers, cleaning rods and straps for the tools.

Starting to look "The business"

Good Afternoon, Woz,
Glad to see your Sherman, It is looking really good. With that 3D Printer, you can make almost any part that you need. Very enviable!
regards,
Painless

Thanks.

The 3D printing is great, spend an hour or so designing something then leave it printing while I go and do something else. Any faulty bits get dissolved and used to glue parts together.
