        Those water bottles are insane Steve. You need to teach JR how to do that

                    Steve,
                    The stowage adds a whole new dimension.

                      Hi Everyone

                      What do mean Lee? JR taught me!!:smiling5::smiling6:
                      Glad you like 'em Jim
                      Cheers Ian. Hit a brick wall now though:tired:
                      Thanks Si. Look forward to seeing your stowage ideas on the Jag:thumb2:
                      It really is small Mick. I have to pinch myself sometimes:smiling3:
                      I take it that is the official name for stowage Paul?:smiling5::smiling3::smiling5:
                      Thanks Scottie. I see you are at it as well! Must be catching:smiling4:

                        Evening Steve,
                        Sorry to read the build is bugging you, I get like that too, when the direction of the build goes left field:upside:...
                        ..on a plus you’ve made some great modifications and it’s looking very good mate!

                        Get back to it with fresh eyes another time:thumb2:

                          It's not like you Steve ! :flushed:
                          This is where I would do a wreak :smiling2:
                          As you say put in the drawer .

                          Any refunds please, I paid £3.75 for a back row standing only ticket .

                          John .

                            But it’s looking so good Steve, as for the tracks on a base in soft sand/mud you would hardly see the tracks.
                            So stop feeling sorry for yourself and get it painted.:tongue-out3::thumb2:

                              Steve,
                              Sorry to hear your not happy with the build. I would love to see you finish it but it's your call if your not happy.

                                Steve, with two kits worth of tracks do you not have enough to make one good set?
