Thanks a lot, sorry to hear you miss like-minded people! I know there are a lot of Americans in the Facebook group "1/6 scale war vehicles only", perhaps that could be a good start? Plus, it turned out that within driving range from the place I live, there were more than a handful people interested in the same hobby, including one who built his own 1:1 tank. I had no idea about this until I started building and started to visit hobby exhibitions. So you never know, there might be guys out there with the same interest closer than you think. 🙂

What state are you in? I think theres a few tank groups still around in the midwest region. Not 1/6 scale+ specific more like 1/16 normal scales etc etc But yes Uk and all the neighboring countries over in the east have huge tank communities and RC gatherings.

Until I see you using a hacksaw blade to make groove for the C clips, I thought you had a small hobby sized lathe. Yes, I did read the note thanking Sten for making the gearbox drive shafts, and they are very well made. I'm a retired machinist. I have a bunch of wood working machines, a Harbor Freight Hobby Lathe, and a couple years ago, I bought a used Bridgeport that needed repairs. It's been running for a while, and it's in good condition. I converted it to single phase using a new motor with the same RPM as the original motor. The only thing I'm not into is 3D Printing. I really enjoy watching you build your RC Vehicles, you are a very talented.

As an Old Centurion Gunner/Driver Mk 10/11 , 1968-70, I'm amazed how good your detailed model is. The UK model didn't have a single slide over drivers hatch. It was a double flip over with adjustable sights. The single hatch only came with the Chieftains. The Centurion was modified for numerous countries and was a superb battle tank in its day, In the winter months when out on exercise, we always slept on the back decks as they where nice and warm with the RR Merlin engine running all day. That certainly brings back many memories. Ho, I still have a distorted finger nail when changing a road wheel dropped on my finger, ouch that hurt.

Absolutely brilliant!! Such dedication. BTW: I have an anorak in Swedish camo. Two shades of green, a dark tan and black.
