I would like to introduce myself as a new member to Amortek. I have just ordered a Panzer III kit for delivery in September. I live in Poole in Dorset and am a recently retired computer engineer. I have been building models of all sorts for about 35 years, starting with radio control boats and for 25 years was involved with 1/8 scale IC radio control model car racing. I have recently started building a 1" steam traction engine. I have also built two fullsize kit cars. I am really looking forward to building the Panzer and am finding the Panzer III forum really helpful.

Dennis Jones.

Hi Dennis

Welcome :D Congratulation on the Panzer III. It sounds like, with your modeling experience, your Panzer III will be a snap. I look forward to seeing it.

kind regards
Tim

I'm also in Poole. I think that there are several Armortek owners in the Poole/Bournemouth area. Barry (Tiger I, Panther and King Tiger on order) and I regularly get together. Send me a PM if you would be interested in meeting up. I have the Sherman, US M3 half-track, SdKfz7 half-track and 88mm.
