Starting to come together Leon. Wish the Missus a speedy recovery and start building a boat in case you can't get the leak sorted

Sick Mrs. usually means no bench time so I DO wish her a speedy recovering... for both your sakes. Looking good.

Still, a boat might come in handy - and it could double-up as an activity centre for groundhogs and racoons

Won't see anymore Ground hog and raccoon activity this year! All their favorite plants are now in the compost pile.

Well guys,another day shot in the arse! To many interruptions again and only managed to get some small PE brackets glued on.Naturally Trumpy isn't to clear on which way the brackets face. After i looked a few steps ahead i noticed they hold the gas cans in place.Going to see if i can pop them loose and re glue them on the right way. 001 by Leon Dorak, on Flickr 002 by Leon Dorak, on Flickr Thanks for looking.

You know I'm not into modern armor but...it looks good so far Leon, so keep them updates coming. It's always a pain in the b*tt when the construction manual shows vague drawings ! So Trumpy if you read this...get that done in a proper way the next time !
