Testing out one side of my dual winch setup.

I still wondering if I going to do a balance system for them both So I can run one or the other whilst winching.

It has adequate power and I found some real nice 1.0 stainless steel braided cable rated to 20kg, so in theory both could lift 40kg, but I bot sure the motors have so much power and the winch itself wouldn't pull itself apart haha.
Also tested 4s drive setup on the truck. Videos later

Made these a while back, but didn't get round to printing. Now almost fully complete with the various options

Wehrmacht Infantry carts, come with different handles for hand or vehicle and also have optional extra on MG42 AA mount or Panzerschreck mount.

Have done early and late versions and hence why there are different wheel designs also. All drawn by eye from photographs found online.

Managed to get a little more life back into the old laptop, although i don't think it is going to last, i desperately want to try and print some Pak40 parts during the week if possible

Short term fix obviously was very short term.
Sorry guys, but my CAD has halted due to death of computer which i just can't afford to fix or build a replacement. So all i have now are a few older models which i hadn't yet got through to the printer. So i can focus on those now, but that buggers up my Christmas Holiday plans doh!

May go and try and update my old desktop which has been sitting for past 8 years and see if i can bring that online.

It be fubar. It was really slow recently. I wiped it out and started back and it was ok, although performance not as it once was. But now seems total death as light comes on and does nothing. I be ripping it apart to check, but it's an old laptop and 4years old. I needed excuse for new desktop machine, but was hoping to wait into new year doh!
I am sourcing parts as we speak for custom build. Seems these days no one does this anymore and all local shops say no we can build but why would we want to sell parts to others to build, that defeats the point they say. Then they say 1700 and I start laughing and say that's why I build my own workstations because you get totally ripped off if someone builds a custom. Hopefully have a case tomorrow and then can buy in motherboard, cpu and gpu etc. I have to go buy online rather than 'support' my local business.
