Yes, this is the gun that had a crew of something like 500 troops to operate it. “Dora” was actually the name of the second (and last) example built; the first was Schwerer Gustav (“Heavy Gustav”).

Hi Christopher,
Scotts last activity was 17/06/2019, you could try and start a conversation with him as if he is still a member of the forum it will show in his domestic email.
I hope that helps regards Jim

Click on his name. The select, 'start a conversation' I've never used this feature before, but it might work. Have a go, nothing to lose.

Hi Chris,
I've just tried Colins method and the start a converstion button is not visible but if you click on the email button on the top of the page and manually type Noble his avatar appears so try that way.
regards Jim

 

[boatman]

HI COLIN there is no conversation tag on his avtar an I have just contacted Al a staff member as I have not got one either so no one can talk to me either so i'll see if he can sort it an thanks Jim i'll have a go at your suggestion

Hi Chris,
I can see the start a conversation on your avatar but you won't as talking to yourself is frowned upon :money-face: , If the other way I posted doesn't work I'm sorry but have no other ideas.
regards Jim

Hi Chris,
I can and will start a conversation with you but the reason you can't see the start a conversation on your own avatar is that you can't email yourself.
hope that explains it better.
regards Jim

You also can’t start one with Scott:

He has probably turned off the option that just anyone can start a conversation with him.

Scott has 'Emigrated'

[Andy Belsey]

Great model Scott. Hope you come back.
Have you ever seen Peter Shaw's 1:12 version?!!!! You'll need more than a shed to put his one in.
