After 40 years in the same house I have far too much clutter to even consider moving, so I guess I'm stuck with the drive. It also mean if I want my tanks fixing it's more of an outing than a quick trip.

If you don't have all the paperwork, you might think you were being overcharged!

I'm working on a new piece of scenery. I think I now have all the bits and pieces, so it's just a question of how much I can get put together by the 25th. I hope you will like it.

If it's up to your usual standard we will all just stand around speechless, and wonder how on earth you did it?
I talked Simon at Greens Models into buying a T90 today, he ordered one.

Things not going quite according to plan. Still I have 4 days to go, so hopefully it will all come together.

Just waiting for the last bits of glueing to dry. The final test will be people's reaction on Sunday. It is a bit noisier than I had anticipated, but hopefully, it won't be heard over the general battlefield noise.

Quick request, if anyone has either a pair of short shaft (Tiger) white metal gearboxes that they don't want, or a pair of plastic final drive shafts (short ones for a Tiger), I would be most grateful if you would bring them along on Sunday. A complete pair of plastic gearboxes would be ok.
Now that the basket case Tiger 131 has power I have discovered that the gears are completely junked as well,

Will those plastic boxes you butchered do you?
