this is looking really good John. I had a look at that walk around in detail and its complicated to say the least eh

[Guest]

Yep it is, the only thing i cant see is where it all connects to the tank, unless it's just next to the headlights !!!.

I dont now what to do about the tank end of things as there are to many discrepancies between the M48 in the walk around and the one i am building.

I can only assume my M48 is an earlier model, so i may have to use a bit of poetic licance (iff thats ok with you lads).

Great work on the bridge John looks so real and i'm sure you'll do as good a job on the M48 carry on with the good work

Thanks Ian for your kind words.

Went to start the pipwork on the main rams & found the lower ram was sticking (dont you just hate when yous rams stick), so me & stanley/Mr drill got together and sorted it.

Mr Stanly and Mr Drill to the rescue again eh? they're nice chaps

Poetic licence would be acceptable here as i know what that walkaround does to your brain

As for your lower ram sticking, sounds painful ... i'd go doctors and get some cream John

Looking good mate, keep the updates coming please.
