At least they won't melt in the Falklands climate.

Keep at it Bob.

Don't take any notice of our attempts at humour.

It will be another masterpiece from 'Bob'

Once again I've done a bit more, I made a mistake putting the upper and lower hull together so could not fit the Friulmodel tracks over the drive sprocket, I used the kit one's which are not so bad, that must be an excuse to make another early version.

The worm keeps falling off, I don’t really want to glue it on because it was removed soon after they landed.

I wondered if it was an air intake?

It was a transmission breather that was removed shorty after landing. I’ve warmed it up to try to bend it to fit better but it’s broken three times already. I don’t want to glue it but it might come to that. (It’s resin).

Yes, resin is a bit brittle.
