Now correctly fitted. I'm trying to fit all the parts as closely as possible so very little filler will be used. So far, so good. The top of the piece of wood will need to be planed down to match the hull top. |

I assembled the hull and am working on the hull face. The angled piece is upside down to show where I had to carve away wood to match the correct angle. |

I redid the hull sides out of basswood to more correctly match the real tank profile. The sponsons (the hull that sits above the tracks) seemed correct in length and width, but were too squat, so I added some basswood to their bottoms. |

Looks like a great setup you've got going on there. |

The Sterling P-26 took a dive. Long story. So I am building the wood kit of an M-4 Sherman that dates to the mid 1940s. The scale is 1/2" to the foot or 1/24 scale. |

Behind the spray booth is my own personal hobby store. Fortunately it is all paid for. |

The 40mm Bofors under glass and the F9F Panther awaiting some modifications. When my youngest moved back, all this went to storage. Now it is out again ready to be used. |

More of the room. The build area. |

My oldest son bought a new home, and I got his room. If you look closely you will see the Simpsons "Lard Lad" character and a Sterling P-26. More on THAT story later. |
