If my hobby pays for itself then my girlfriend doesn't mind how much I'm spending.

I think that's the best situation any hobbyist can be in.... I knew when I saw what you were doing....it could lead to something great

Good Luck Woz... I think you will do very very well ...A fine way to start the New Year

Which reminds me ....All the best for you and yours

Woz,
This is the start of something great not only for you but for the Hobby. It really is a Golden Age of Tanking. Congratulations again!

He's got the test parts that I do on my printer, though I have to modify some bits for Shapeways. The White Strong and Flexible should be OK for most parts.

Looking good Woz, just realised your from my old stomping ground.
I used to live in Eccleston.

You can't by any chance reproduce the recoil unit mounting bracket can you as I've just ordered this unit for my Sherman and was wondering how to mount it?

Ready for painting
