And now another one of Gaz Evans' master pieces,it looked super even before it was attached to the base machine but I must say it looks pretty special,once again just the pipe work to finish but I couldn't resist getting a few quick snaps and sharing,I have to find a suitable tool to pin to the big girl

That looks outstanding! Gaz sure did do a great job with that kit. I'm curious, does the kit come with the extra cylinder required?? Rowan.

Apologies Boatboy,I'll try get some comparison shots of the Cat,hitachi and a few others too Rowan,you get all cylinders required but I swapped them out for some 1/35 JCB js330 rams and cat 365 rams,the js3300 rams have the perfect stroke length Mark you're slowly but steadily drifting away from hooks that is until your expected packages arrive,then you're right back in the cookie game

As I very impatiently sat in bumper to bumper traffic,the reason would be a truck carrying corn that overturned on a bridge over the M50 motorway,spilling its load of corn onto all the southbound lanes,I spotted this yeller feller a few cars ahead,luck was on my side as the lane I was in was moving ever so slightly faster and I managed to get some pics on my phone,apologies for picture quality
