My talents are very limited as you well know.
Look at the post 2 or so back, the word engineering has been used with reference to my work.
I must be going up in the world.

If your talents are limited then mine are non existent. Some people play great guitar, some paint fantastic pictures, you build superb models and thats all there is to say.

The engineering quote was directed at "Haddock", sorry its a personal joke.

Especially for you Tony, my workspace is back to normal.

Unable to upload picture  - had a message saying that the uploader is full??

Hi Zak,

Yes the attachments file is full I think. I have contacted Mike to look at it a couple of days ago but he has not got back to me so far. I'll see if Andy can do anything when I speak to him today. If not we will just have to wait for Mike to sort it before we can post anymore pictures.

I suppose all this new found activity on the website over the last few months has used up space quicker than we have ever done before.

I hope my next is always better

zak

Thanks Kevin, will wait until I hear from you before attempting any more pictures.

Andy has given me the ok, so here goes.
What shall I model now?
Here is a slightly different artillery tractor, this is a Hornsby chain link tractor, trialled by the army in 1909. it did not take on, it wasn't even looked at in tank development.

Oh Joy,

Its already taken shape while the web site was down, I am just feeding it in bit by bit.

I'm beginning to think that there's more than one Zack at work here.

Bigkev

He is like a great kit and has been 'cloned' many times!

I believe he has been re-issued many times also, though I think later issues have gradually less hair!

Bigkev.
I hope my next is always better

zak

You should be grateful that there is only one.

I believe that there is only one, but he must have eight arms and two heads.

Am I missing something or what, I am somewhat confused. In the Picture Ho 12 (Artillery tractor) the twin track support wheels are mounted under the top track section and then in Ho 13 they are on the bottom? Or I am going nuts?

zak

Ho13 is correct, I did have them mounted upside down but then changed it.
OOPS!- I did say be suspicious if it all goes well, because at some stage, something will go wrong.
This may be a version of sods law.
