Phil,

Our dog's love raw Mackerel, not suitable for fish and chips....
I did a little painting today and thanks to Tim for the link. The color is spot on and I am very happy







Please excuse my excitement, but these bump stops are beyond words. Many thanks Steve and Tim!



Cheers!

kindest regards and happy Tiger-ing

Nice close up - I've got to get me some of those

Adrian.

[Rocky Sembritzky]

The wheels are on and what a sense of accomplishment!



Fortunately, Joe sent a helper with a wrench....





A much different suspension from the newer kits.....



I apologize for the bad pics, the lighting was bad.

Tomorrow the sprockets and the tracks go on....

Cheers

> raw Mackerel, not suitable for fish and chips....

It's great oven roasted in foil Not sure about a hound caught one though...

Looks like you've been making good progress with the Tiger.

Getting the tracks on is certainly one of the most satisfying milestones with these kits.

Adrian.

[Rocky Sembritzky]

Thanks Adrian and the tracks are on! It does give a great sense of accomplishment and some sore muscles







The early hub looks really good.



I am really having fun!

Cheers,

Rocky

Looking good Rocky

Do my eyes deceive me or is that evidence of blood that front road wheel

Having been mauled myself - which included losing a fingernail - I know from first hand experience that these things can bite back

Adrian,

Just a small scratch from a castle bolt

My back is a little worse than my fingers! I need to find one of those mini-lifts or motorcycle lifts that some of you use. I need some suggestions.

Hi Rocky, The set up I use with lifting table and scissor lift works really well. Do'nt know how you got so far without one. I use sealey lifts. Makes everything so much easier. Tiger looking great.

[Tim Bowman]

Very nice Rocky!

Careful. Don't get hurt yet. You have a line of tanks that need building.

Adrian, a lost fingernail?! Youch!

kind regards
Tim

> Adrian, a lost fingernail?! Youch!

Correct I can't actually remember how I squashed it now but it was whilst I was dismantling the prototype Sherman.

I guess I should try and remember, if only to stop me doing it again

Adrian.

Rocky,
Harbor Freight have a good selection of lift tables for very good prices. Perhaps you have a store locally? You need a lift table to save your back from heavy lifting.
best regards, Bob

Bob,

I have two lift tables, I am looking for a small scissor lift.

This is the one I use. It is quite wide so makes a stable platform under the Tiger. Handle for adjusting is short though but I just took the bar out and fitted some pipe to extend and refitted the lever.
