      I'm a bit late to catch up with this, but hopefully there's still one of the penny seats left for me?
      Has Steve bought the biscuits yet?

        Looks like you had some fun w/the gun. It's those little touches like the lanyard that make it yours. Nicely executed. PaulE

          Beautifully executed Howitzer, Greg. The details and slight mode just makes it look more fun to do. Like to see how the treadway turns out.

          Cheers,
          Richard

                Looking forward to this one. We do not see enough models relating to the Korean War.

                          Hard cabs were abandoned early in WWII & were mostly Lend-Lease as they were difficult to ship in volume & used a lot more steel, so none used in Korea. Try to find some lighter cable for the winch. That thread is way too heavy. PaulE

                            thanks Paul i knew about the cabs... for the cable i thought it was good... but you are right... unfortunately i won't be able to change it.... i might cover it with some stuff... or find another option... thanks for the tip

                              Greg ,
                              Can't it be cut across the width, gently with a scalpel. ?
                              Would be a shame to leave it, or cover it up .
