    We should battle together in the near future......

    While looking back at this thread, I realized I left something relevant out. Earlier I had proposed making Warhammer 40K tanks in 1:16 scale of which there are none, even in 3DP form. I posted this effort elsewhere, but it needs to be included here:

    Interesting similarities, eh? Here it is at a SoCalRCTank battle event:

    Is the tank too big, or the train too small?

    When I run out of tank projects (only temporarily of course!), I dig out some other hobby stuff. A OO9 scale (1:76 scale narrow gauge running on n scale track) British steam locomotive, posed in front of a 1:16...well, you identify it!

    Now, where is that M24 Chaffee?

    We had to replace our pool vacuum. Selecting the one with tank tracks was a no-brainer! (The decal won’t be staying. She said no.)
    Truly is a Tauchpanzer. Excellent

    Saw this at the firework tent near house last year, saw it again this year and had to get a couple.

    As I work as a handyman/dogs body in a care home I’m not allowed to take any pictures myself due to data protection. I would have loved too though. The manager was taking some pictures, so I will see if it is possible to copy them across.

    Because it is Christmas, I got the new ride finished for Santa. Made a bag of magic dust so he could come alive when the nursery children came in to entertain the residents. Each child had to take some dust and sprinkle it over Santa to make him move Trundled around with small presents for the residents. A daft build I know, so what? It is Christmas, and if it bring a bit of pleasure to those suffering from dementia. Then I’m happy.

    Tank You SoCalBobS for starting one of my favorite subjects!

    The funny side in any RC hobby branch.

    Salute to the Tank inspector and the combined warhammer demolition vehicle Idea.
    It may not even need a reverse gear, nothing is going to stop it anyways

    If this is the not too serious section, I had better introduce my Christmas build with one of the residents, who has dementia…
    Take one Tamiya chassis, borrowed from my Tiger. And build a box to fit over it.
