  1. Jon, Simply amazing. You are talented beyond belief! I have been following you since you were just building the turret, and when you started on this endeavor after the volume of encouragement to do so, I couldn't have been more excited. You are getting so close, and you have to be applauded for your commitment to staying as close to authentic as possible. I can't wait to see the hull mated with the turret, and even better, one day moving along on it's very own set of tracks. Keep it up brother...you're truly an inspiration! -Tom
  2. Brilliant Jon! I love following this build and look forward to every new post! -Tom
  3. Springs are in. All the landing leg extension springs are spoken for, but have a few of the parking brake handle springs if anyone needs one. -Tom
  4. M10 ammunition trailer owners, I am having a run of landing leg extension springs and parking brake handle springs made. I have a post on the G503 here in the US, but wanted to reach out to the other side of the pond for those of you not on the G503... Here are pics of the landing leg extension spring: Additionally, I am requesting a run of the parking brake handle springs. See pics below: If interested in either, please post up, PM or email me so I can get an idea of how many to order...quantity will help drive the prices down a bit. Cost?? High end (less than 3 sets/6 springs): $40 ea. for the landing leg springs, $45 ea. for the parking brake handle springs (higher complexity of bends), plus shipping. Low end (10 sets/20 springs or more): $20 ea. for the landing leg springs, $25 ea. for the parking brake handle springs, plus shipping. So far I have commitments for 7 sets of landing leg springs and 4 sets of parking brake handle springs. I can get them within one week of placing the order, which I'd like to put in by next Friday (08FEB). Thanks, Tom
  5. Great work guys. Those cooling fans are crazy...they look more like propellers than fan blades. Interesting to see old technology like that and how engineering has progressed. -Tom
  6. Thanks Match. Yes, I have that manual...there are no good pics of the left side of the tongue with the chain installed. -Tom
  7. Is the Hop Farm worth the extra charge? Coming up Monday from Italy with my 6 year old for the week...looking for alternative entertainment in the event that the W&P show fizzles out for us. -Tom
  8. Same happened to me. Apparently photobucket is no longer free. 😡 If you want your pics restored where you've posted them, you have to upgrade your account with them. Not sure what it'll cost as I'm on travel and haven't looked into the issue yet.
  9. As stated, looking for a CH-108 spare parts chest for the RC-58 facsimile set, WWII vintage US radio equipment. If you don't have one but know of one (for sale or not), please let me know. Alternative to buying is taking pics/measurements to reproduce one. Thanks all. -Tom
  10. Anyone have the retaining chain for the inter-vehicular connector (jumper cable) installed on their M10 ammo trailer? I need closeup shots in order to buy the correct type of chain as mine is missing. I also need to know how/where it attaches to the tongue, and details for the ring that goes around the cable. The pics in the manual aren't detailed enough. Here is the description: CHAIN, weldless, double loop, type 1, S., 0.105 in., 10 1/2 in. long. Thanks all, Tom
  11. Thanks Tony...I love seeing these old instructional videos! -Tom
  12. Very nice David...that's talent! -Tom
  13. Match, My original email was composed exactly like that. I never ask for contact info, rather ask someone to forward mine on. I'll send a follow-up email though...don't want to pester them but it would be nice to at least get an acknowledgement. ----------- Draganm, Thanks for the directions for the VPN proxy...worked like a charm! And of course as soon as you post it they put it up on YouTube...go figure! I had never heard of the occupation of the Channel Islands...that's pretty fascinating. I'll have to add them to my places to visit. -Tom
