      Thanks chaps.

      It was fairly stiff by this morning :flushed: so just gave it another coat of PVA to smooth the canvas out a bit. I've now started painting it, pictures to follow when it looks a bit better! :smiling5:

        I slapped some paint on the canopy, added some stabilising feet with tent peg holes, and some hooks for the guy lines. Not much progress but it's far too hot to work in the shed for long! :smiling6:

          Andy, if you load any more accessories on there you will need my Scania to pull it off the campsite, brilliant work by the way.

          Andy.

              Thanks Ian, more to come I hope.

              And I think you're right Andy, not sure how the standard engine is going to pull this lot. Maybe I should have gone for the porsche lump after all lol

                Hey, it's your model, if you say there's a Porsche in there, there is. The 4 banger would need to be a 'grenade' to pull this lashup smartly. PaulE

                    Just had a catch up Andy and I've got to say that is a fantastic result on the bus

                    and we now get a gay zebra and the promise of a dio - excellent :thumb2:

                        You're right Paul, I'll just blag it.

                        Thanks Simon. Gay zebra, love it :smiling5:

                        And thanks Tony. I'm starting to run out of plastic profiles so need to re-stock!

                          Liking the Gyzmozebo Andy...and if this Andy syndrom carries on you'll need quite a sizable board for your base. :smiling6:

                          Cheers,

                            Yes, I can't start a base until this house arrest madness ends and I can get some materials, but at this rate I'll end up needing a full 8x4 foot sheet of plywood :smiling5:
