Looking good, I too have been following your build. I'm envious of gentlemen, such as yourself, with the skill, talent and patience to take on this type of task.

Thank you peeps for the nice comments. It really makes the project worthwhile when someone else appreciates the work you are doing. As a total beginner to metalwork when I started this project, Iwas daunted with what Imight encounter but Ihave learned to think "out of the box" and what seems like an insurmountable problem at the time soon becomes just a slight hiccup. Unfortunately 1 or 2 of our little hiccups have cost quite a bit in replacement metal and parts. Planning and research is the key to success and the metalwork is the easy bit.
If it wasnt for the internet and forums like this one with helpful peeps, I dont think we would have managed, but now with all that we have learned we are just thinking about the next project. Its got to be bigger and better so if you have any ideas what is unusual or rare in the large tank section, let me know and perhaps that is what we will do next. I am thinking of 1/6 scale next time
