Pretty cool! I had fun making mine back some 6 years ago... but having a HL hull and VVSS would have made it a lot simpler.

Coming up with all the detailed accessories on the tank was fun too.

Looks good so far Frank. I like your speaker much better than the one I made.

Her owner just wants a simple conversion so I’m not going into too much detail...the .50’s just the standard HL one...
