Default RE: Searchlights and Wireless Cameras

Thanks for the info Chickster. Harq, nothing new. The detailing is coming out nicely. I was thinking of making working shutters (this fabricating stuff is really fun when you have the right tools) but decided against it for now, lots of projects to do on the tank still and time is running short.

I tried 5 times to make the gun site that sits on top of the turret. Either I cut the brass crooked, make that 7 times, or I couldn't get the holes all lined up. I didn't want to buy a drill press just yet! Doing a search I found that Dremel has a new workstation/press for about $45! Just stick my dremel in there and pull the lever! Going to get that puppy tomorrow!

I decided to do more detail work then originally planned. Going to make all the tie downs and fender supports, and 360 turret ring now too.
