David,
*EPIC*
Wonderfully monsterous contraption, but at least you will never have to carry a set of ramps to get it out of your car!
So looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.
Well done for thinking really BIG.
Cheers, Fabrice

Can't wait to see this BL in action once you've got all the mechanicals worked out.

I think awesome really is the right word for what you're doing. Can't wait to see the first video. You'll be needing a taller garage or an English summer. Thanks for keeping us posted.
All the best

Re: Centurion Bridgelayer
It has struck me that David is making a self loading tank, it carrys it's own ramps to get into the back of a car or van 
I look forward to seeing it completed and working, as it is truly an amazing piece of work, And I salute the bravery in contemplating the idea and then putting it into action, it is breathtaking in it's scale.
All the best!

Dave,
Another Masterpiece! Just like all your models - Fantastic! I agree with the others a self loading tank that brings its own ramps is a great idea. You might need a bigger car though! Looking forward to seeing more of this beast. Great work!
Best regards,
Bob
