New to this forum, but not completely new to RC tanks.
I am 43 years old and live in Denmark.
Here is a picture of my two Shermans, more info will come when I get to know the forum better

Hello there! Way overseas in Wisconsin, USA, here, I saw your photo. One of those Shermans is what we call a "calliope" and that Cushman scooter is familiar to me as a nifty 3D printed model I have, too, except on yours there seems to be a low covering between the handlebars and the seat. Interesting! I am eager to see more, and I hope you will soon feel comfortable asking questions and helping us, too.

Welcome from the West Coast of Scotland. Settle in, pull up a beer, relax, and ask lots of questions.

Welcome from Ontario, Canada!
My wife and I watched the series Badehotellet this past summer, and the scenery around Skagerrak looks beautiful. I'm thinking Denmark needs to become part of our travel itinerary.
Nice Calliope, too!

Mike.

I will do what I can thanks and will probably post some more pictures so you can see more.

I skip the beer and grab a whiskey and a chair instead.

It is a really nice area of ​​Denmark, yes, definitely something worth traveling for.
It is one of the biggest Danish series and I was actually lucky enough to be part of the filming for one day, as one of my good friends owns one of those cars Mr. Weyse drive in.

Welcome to the forum RKRC, from New York, but not the city I live an hour North in the woodsy country. It's a big state. People always think it's just the city.

Lucky! Was it the roadster he arrives in at the start? Always looked forward to seeing what cars they'd be driving, and well, of course...seeing Rosalind Mynster!
