Cheers but please don't mention food so soon after Christmas.  Right, aforementioned little lot all popped together with no trauma, the weights do rattle slightly so you may wish to throw a blob of Cyano at them to stop this.  More I hope soon. |

A weighty situation to be sure.  Very neatly done, Mence.  |

That's Tammy engineering for yer Prof - thought that first assembly looked a bit ungainly but as you say, everything seems to have pulled very nicely into shape! Progress is progress Jeffers - yer on the move and yer might as well get the party snax outta the way |

Some real progress. ;)First up, the Boom thingy. Typical Dragon instructions. Not very clear, to say the least. 8 pieces. Had to straighten this post out in order to attach the rest of the parts.  And after much wobbling about, a Cannon appeared.   Next up was the Turret. The lower Hull and the Turret had huge posts molded into them. All I can think of is that they were for alignment. Well in order for the Gun to fit in the Turret, both posts needed to be removed.   And gone.  Turret, before.  Turret after.  Lower Hull next, I think. AAACW. |

Great progress Jeffers but that is a crazy setup having to remove those posts! At least you get a breech assembly with yours, something rather lacking with mine.  |

As always, thanks, Laddies. Mence, yeah. I don't see the posts purpose. If you use them to align things, nothing lines up.  And the Breech thing? It would have made more sense for your kit to have it and not mine. |

Little done today as we have had guests. However... Suspension is in as are the drive cases. Bit disappointed the suspension units have no detail on the front but in fact it doesn't matter as the wheels obscure them anyway.  |

Niiiiice.  Funny you mention that, friend. I've been trying to figure out the suspension on mine. A question, if I may. Are the swingarms symmetrical side to side? |
