    Paul, the idea of an ammo trailer is a good one, thinking the appetite of that drilling would lay
    waste to anything carried aboard rather quickly.:thumb2:. Rick H.

                What is the thing behind the boxer's left front fender? I can't zoom it in and don't have the soft vehicles book. Is it an air cleaner?

                  Thanks for looking Paul. It's the jack & the driver's rifle mounted to the cowl. The jack block is on the right spare tire fender & a fire extinguisher on the left. PaulE

                    Nice job on the trailer Paul. I assume it gets the camo treatment as well. Rick H.

                      Hi Paul,

                      Once again you've pulled a winner out of the magical hat. I still love the hovering effect and I would say it is a sheet of glass on your bench. Quick question though...Are you going to add the ammo canisters for the drilling? Drive on Sir and get cracking on cleaning out the garage and freeing the Vette up!!!

                      Prost

                        Thanks RickH. Haven't decided yet. Allen, it is a 3/8" sheet of Mikasa crystal. I have the proper ammo cans, but they are closed (solid plastic) & I'm toying w/the idea of open ones w/belted ammo to the guns. This may be a bridge too far as the mini gun cans were tough & caused much sturm-und-drang. SWMBO has already made clear she is not going to scrape snow/ice off her car next winter even if she has to call '2 Men & a Truck' to haul the garage contents away. PaulE

                          Damn Paul,

                          You poor fella!!! It looks like you have a bit of work ahead of you in the garage....Re the cans, you just need to have a little slit on the top of each one for the feed belts to go to the guns. I don't think at your scale you would make the side slit windows to see the amount of rounds inside. Everything is looking tops so far my friend…….

                              Had to rethink Protz position w/trailer. Added employee bikes, & warning sign (crane runs close to door), Protz drilling gun tools, extra barrels, unditching boards, & trailer tongue prop, tail light & camo.

                                Added more details-additional tongue prop & tool clamp details and crew. Gun boss was unavailable due to imminent departure.
