Thanks
I'll start doing parts when I'm getting the best out of the printer I'm completely happy with the results.
Just noticed I've missed the fire extinguishers off the firefly - (job for tonight).

What you are putting out now looks great Woz...plastic always needs some attention... so for modellers not to much of a burden ...so maybe after that fire extinguisher... how about trying a three piece transmission cover for a Sherman / Lee
ALPHA
pS ... I could use a few of those should you succeed

Got a bit more done-
Did more welding and added the fire extiguisher
also started on the left side
One thing that's been bugging me was the fuel cap covers
So I cut them off and printed some new ones-
job done-

@ PainlessWolf - lol, guess the people who design these things aren't tankers.
@ ALPHA - Oh I don't know it looks a bit different to the M4 ones, may have to change a line or two of coding. And that list of yours is getting pretty long.

....You think???

I thought they looked pretty close... seems the difference is in the lock down system ...but they might be a little smaller....
ALPHA
PS. ....Painless and I aren't rivet counters Woz... so close enough is always good enough

...what else you making.... so far my list has two items maybe three.... but I don't think the gule is shippable
