      No pics today. But I have been busy and received some 5mm x 1mm magnets today. See if you can guess what they are for.

            I also found it interesting that the lead guy was giving hand signals to the rear-view camera when they were hooking up the tow bar. To be expected, of course, but if you don’t know there’s a camera there, it may leave you wondering why he’s doing that when it’s obviously out of sight of the driver

              Cool video. I think I would have dropped the spade & winched it out of the ditch then hooked up the tow bar.

                Don't tell anyone.
                It's certainly a different technique than the old days.

                  I wanted to be able to show the crew door and tool locker door open, but also show the vehicle with all the armour in place. So I purchased some 5x1mm magnets. This meant I had to fill the end of the front armour pack, this enabled me to fit the magnets without them being seen and also gave the armour pack some depth. The rear magnet is hidden in the armour pack to the rear of the crew cabin. The corresponding magnets were fitted to the armour pack. I have some work to do to remove the filler from the front but I happy with the way it works.

                              Great idea with the magnets so that you can show the pod removed and what is under it.
