    At Hendon today, Sorry if I missed anyone, Glad to be home tho, Cosford Next week so I have a few days to finish it off. And as a brilliant bonus Mr Mike Trim (for those who dont know, designer of the Shadomobile and very talented Artist) was there as well :)

    Tommie, It went it came back and was a foot longer to boot lol, I have no idea of how many hours it has taken so far. Still adding.

          Well that makes sense, since the designer of the Shado Mobiles would be older. You do have that "Cat that ate the Canary" look on your face. You never did say whether or not you took First place or not. I mean what else could you have taken?

                    Question is where does the missus sleep.
                    Make it simple, make strong, make it work!

                                If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.
