Hi Clive
Email sent
Ian's scratch built Centurian pictures below, ready for the new electrics going in.
As you can see Ian's work is amazing. Can't wait to see the finished tank once its painted.
I've had a hedgerow cutter made for my Sherman. its still in its early stages, needs welds and painting. Pictures below.

Hi Ant
I'll second that, what a great day. Great pictures and videos.
Richie
P.S. I feel really bad as the hedgecutter claimed a frog.
