Hello UK Tank Warfare

Hello all,
I live in rainy PNW of USA (Seattle area). I have loved tanks and anything with tracks since I was little. I have some 1/16 scale tanks, but my true love is 1/6 scale. I especially like scratch building. I have several Armortek models which scratch the itch some. I know some on this forum from Armortek and other forums,
I also enjoying making, manual machining, CAD design, CNC machining, and 3D printing etc.
I hope to share some projects with you here. Looks like this a very active group.
Best regards,
Bob
Scratch built 1/6 M5;

Thanks all for the welcome. I actually have two 1/6 Stuart now. This one is all steel, although turret will be Aluminum. The first one is all Alum. I will post build thread for each.
Best regards,
Bob

Welcome Bob from Texas. Decided RC Universe didn't have enough activity?

Love the Stuart.

"I also enjoying making, manual machining, CAD design, CNC machining, and 3D printing etc." And it sure shows, too! It will be a pleasure to see and be envious of your "build."
Have you ever been to the "Endoline Cafe?" Does it still exist?

Thanks Derek - RCU and 6th Army both seem pretty dead. LOL.
Herr Professor: Thanks, do you mean this place?

Welcome from the People’s Republik of Illinois. I’m a Missourian native though. Your modeling is impressive and if I had room I would to pursue a 1/6 Initial Production Tiger 1. I seem to be fixated on that early run of Tigers.

Hi Jimster, Thanks for the welcome. Armortek made an early version of the Tiger1 kit in 1/6. They still come up for sale occasionally but mostly in UK.
