Looks great & seems to work well, but my Czech needs some work to confirm this !!
Careful...those holes are tricky.... taking off the plastic molded on parts as well ;)

Some of us have been sitting here waiting for you to turn up, where the h*ll have you been, I suppose it will be that old beat up Tiger that you keep wasting our time on, right, now you have decided to put in a days work, might I suggest you start by sweeping up the workshop. :haha: shaun

Yes, thats right, defy years of Q.A. & testing and MODIFY IT !!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone clarify what the ABC indexed penetration is in the lower hull ??
Does not seem to have any immediate use in respect to the standard model's requirements, so why is it there ?
its going to be closed over regardless, but curiosity being what it is.............why ?

This build is supposed to be like getting a sly moment with your best mates Mrs..............get in- get done- get out, but it seems I am going to be caught with me strides down.........I can just tell. :O
