Default SNFF 02-17

A little early but hey, I've been on vacation all week! Everyday has been a Sunday!

Other then voyage repairs, no heavy work done on the tanks this weekend so far.

Took the Walker BullDog to the beach on vacation and posted some photos on it's build site:

Bump to top

So Sorry, this spooled to the second page before I saw it. The forum must be heating up!!!!!!!!!

This is the official SNFF post this week.

Did you know you can wire a Super bright LED to two pins on the Heng Long ESC and get a cannon flash when you push the K button. That is what I did on my Pershing this week.

Thanks to Dougs Tiger parts website and contributor Joseph Canestrari
Simple little project

SHERMAN TEARDOWN IN PROGRESS!!!! I took my favorite Sherman and tore it apart for an overhaul. Adding recoil, Pershing electronics, and a new turret. Old one will become donor for my JUMBO.

MAN, Cabana Boy looks beat to hell! Looks like you ran the poor little thing till it puked it's guts out!

Was looking a little more battle worthy during you last visit to California

Be sure to document the recoil upgrade to the Sherman.

Yes, that BYA turret is a little too big, but perfect for the Jumbo with a little extra work too. That's funny, I had the same thought too with mine AND I have the 76mm barrel as well! Can't wait to see it finished!

I painted another back drop for photos, and added some netting to my Pershing.

Great backdrop pal...Very nice pershing too. Where's the setting ?. I'm thinking you painted Silver Birch or Mountain Ash (Rowan) or maybe a genus familiar to North America that I'm not aware of in the U.K.
