RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Omg. Now I have another tank........ M26 Pershing Snow leopard!
Ok I am going to stop now...... well maybe not if I find more bargains lol
Just keeping my options open

On the list haha

Picked up a few more RC tanks!
So in all I have 6 now. Ok so I gonna stop and fix more of them up.
Although that won't stop me if a good deal pips up haha lol.
My wife is also suggesting a scale village and offroad type track in the garden!
Looks like out planned garden rockery is going to have a trail across it

Your wife sounds like a keeper! Gotta love one that supports our hobbies. I'm keeping mine as well!

Would love to see the scale village when done.

You are some very lucky fellas... If I setup a Scale village in the backyard....my wife would make it look like the RAF and US Army Air Force did day and night raids on it

Haha. My wife loves boys toys aswell so I lucky. So my son and daughter are not going to have a chance to avoid it lol.
She defo a keeper, I just need to remember she does still like to go out for dinner every now and again so can't spend all the money on cars and models.

So we were talking today and my wife was making a fairy garden for the kids......... but this is next to the offroad course and semi scale village. So we have decided since they also like dinosaurs we are going to do a mini Jurassic park with dinosaurs and have little fairy solar lights on lamp posts etc and a valley with scale bridge and water feature etc.
All for a bit of fun

And just maybe Tigers and Panthers eh.
Shaun.

Jurassic Park style gate posts made and now to sort the sign and hinged doors. Made 12" width to allow tanks in if the fairies and dinosaurs start to cause issues.
Also got a load of scrap timber to start shaping the Warren Truss style bridge for our valley crossing.
A ventilated concrete block will be fashioned to look like a bunker gun in placement. Also making up a guard hut and barrier with some lamp posts.
Gonna have a break now as got to go away on business so hopefully get back to it when I return

starting to make progress on my tanks and shopping list and building an RC playground and then my car suspension goes and fails on me!
Lucky i can do all the work myself, but still it means all my time gonna have to go on replacing all shocks and springs and a big hole in my wallet. i will be back to the tank hobby asap with any luck

For those who interested Alfa 156 GTA, soon to be fitted with stainless coilover units to prevent a re-occurence of rust induced suspension failure.
