Nice details Chris! So cool to print and make your own bits and pieces! Having friends like Vince certainly helps with the CAD!
Nice work,
Bob

Bob -

The main joy of this Forum is the help offered by people, and benefitting from their knowledge. I’ll probably never get to actually meet Vince :( but it’s great to swap emails with him. And this Forum is full of people like him :D :D .

Best wishes,

Chris,

Pretty sure this is a Cent dug-in in Korea. The spare roadwheel hanging off the back is an interesting feature.

It’s certainly got the Type A barrel, so I think you’re right. Most likely Commonwealth Division in 1952/53.

I really must get back to finishing the Cent, but I’ve been distracted by something else 😉
