Good afternoon Dave,

Hi All,

Fuel pump added to the growing pile of masters.

Dave

Dave,

Your masters are something else, do you use a 3D printer or a Dremel and knife etc ?

Dennsi.

Hi Dennis,

Thank you. I do occasionally commission 3d prints such as the seat on the 17 Pdr but 99% of what I do is the old way of Dremel, scalpel, dental probes etc for sculpting and needle files. All the master parts on this build are hand made except the Pyrene extinguisher.

Best regards

Dave

Hi All,

Front window stay done.

Hi All,

Last offering for today, The Wiper Motor.

Hi Dave,

Considering how small these parts must be, its amazing. Will all the parts detailed thus far be included in a proposed kit? Once I had put the rolling chassis together, there is little detail associated with the braking area, do you propose to provide details for this area like with the 25 pounder and limber kits?

Best regards

Dave B

Hi Dave,

Everything I have shown will be included. There are no plans to add chassis detail as it probably wouldn't survive very long. As the wheel backs on the 25 pdr are very visible it was more necessary.

Best regards

Dave

Hi All,

Well that's the last of the metal part masters done for the Morris C8. I just have the bulkhead light to make which will be resin cast and something to fit the rear tray to represent the chocks. Dashboard etc has been cast and fitted along with wiper motors, wiring and fuel lines bent and cut from 1mm brass wire.

Best regards

Dave

Brilliant stuff David,

Looking forward to buying a complete set for my Morris 8, still waiting in their boxes.

Best Regards

Hello Dave, I am enjoying your modelling skills. Even in my retirement it's a challenge finding time to build these excellent kits and all the upgrades.... I have side-lined the Quad and cleared the decks in readiness for the Panther ..............Mick.
