Hi Peter
Great progress, looking good. The Winter War and the Finnish role in WW2 is a fascinating piece of history.
Jim

Cheers Jim, you're not wrong about the history Jim twice against the Russians and then the Germans plus Sub-Zero temperatures.

Well I hope you did you're not getting the prize Mr Stug's, not with a extra long starting handle with about 10 universal joints in it :tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:. I shall rectified it, cheers for the link I was looking at their tank museum looks very good.
Probably post some pictures of the stuff they got there.

I'm glad you're building this now Pete, as you know I'm doing this one for Bob's GB so will watch your build for tips.

How did you get on with the magic tracks? Better/worse than Friul?

Hi Bob, I had a few magic tracks over from a previous build and used them to replace the spare track strip for more detail.
If you like I'll do a list of what I have found at the end but I think you'll make a far better job than I'll ever make and won't pick up many tips from me.

Thank you Peter, yes it a mess at the minute but will clean up later on.

Cheers very kind, but I think there oop:, since the stroke just lost the ability to do any kind of scratch building of any kind.
