Simon and others persuaded me to get one. It's come in very handy!

[Steve Jones]

Up nice and early Andy. Those saws are a joy to use

Day off so a bit of a lie in Steve.

Coming along nicely Comrade Raceiski, not sure I can help on the metal work, but the steel wheels were generally the middle three with a rubber tyred wheel at each end. I think the vibration from steel wheels all round was so bad it shook the tank to pieces!

Hi Graeme thanks for that on the wheels, I just followed the instructions, but as they are just pushed on ( I think ) I will change them round .

John. Nice surgery there my friend. I really like that saw going have to invest in one of those

Lee a great tool, another thing that Simon recommend that have. Just have to take light cuts and straight other wise the blades snap and bits fly off !
If you buy one get some spare blades with the saw .

In at the deep end now John! Loving it so far.

That Jim I can assure you has nearly happened !

Where's the blood, where's the blood!!! I need drama John...the script says by the 7th day blood will be spilt. Ok...ok...if you're qwezee with cutting yourself we can use fake blood so when the cameras roll and call action you just faint an ouch and in the next scene we will splatter fake blood on the work mat. How does that sound?

Etch and cutting are good John...now, kindly know how you are going to attach something before you go ahead and cut it...calling out for Steve ain't going to cut it. :tears-of-joy: No worries I'm sure help will come soon.

Cheers,
Richard

He was PM'd last night Richard and with Matron by his side with plasters, bandages, morphine syrettes and a bottle of Russians finest he is well underway to producing the greatest fenders of the 21st centuary! :smiling5: :thumb2:

Richard. Don’t entice him I sense he’s a Bleeder specially at his age.

[Lee Drennen]

You guys have convinced me I’m going to have to get one of those saws

[grumpa]

Morning John,
Just having a coffee and catchup and see you’ve been a busy boy!

Your a braver man than me chopping off the track guards. I did the same by chopping off the guards on a T-54 a few years ago but replaced with thin plastic card as I wasn’t brave enough to use pewter.

Coming on nicely though....keep it coming :thumb2:

Comrade Benson-ovich.

[Richard48]

Looking great Comrade John.Im very clumsy with the razor saws.The small one i breat bits constantly and larger ones i usually end up doing surgery on my fingers as per usual.Must get a Tamiya Soviet kit again for a trip down memory lane,
Carry on dear boy.

:smiling2::smiling2::smiling2: Richard there is enough drama here at the bench with out blood letting !
I work on cut it off, about think it, if the new idea works ok,if not stick the old one back on :upside:

True indeed about Matron, what a woman Steve she can inject you with one hand while drinking neat Vodka from the bottle in the other. As the fenders that may be a matter of opinion. :nerd:

Your right Lee , these days my veins on my hands seem to be very close to the surface.

You guys have convinced me I’m going to have to get one of those saws

You really ought to Lee.

Couldn't find a blade with that many small teeth Jim, If I tried a hacksaw blade there would be half a tank left !
