glad you've got the shipment, Barry :thumbup:
Take your time to study all stuff comparing to the manual you've received before.

Hi Freddy,

I'm very excited and have sent your and Christian a few questions via email. I have been studying manual and parts most of the morning and came up with some questions.

Cheers,
Barry

Lovely tank. Great engineering.

Just a shame you don't put better electrics inside something that desperately needs it :)
