Hi All
Been a few weeks since I last posted so thought i would let you know WHO we are and WHERE we have got to in our 1/8th Panzer III scratch built project. For updates on our project please go to the Large Scale section a bit later tonight but thought we would give you a laugh and let you see the beginners at work !!!!...Just bought a lathe myself from ebay so need to start another project after this one to get used to my new toy...As a total beginner I am sure I will have plenty of heartache, fun and cussing....And plenty of swarfe to show for my efforts...Anyway firstly my photo looking like lurch on a convict program who is pretending to know what he is doing and my mate Frank trying his best to see over the top of the lathe. He is only 3 foot 11 but does well....he is standing on an orange box :-)))

You really shouldn't have tested it on Frank's legs. :wtf:
