Awesome!!! Had me worried. It would be a shame to not see this one to the end with all the work you put into that sick tank. Keep rolling!

I have the gear myself but the problem is I live in a small space so very little room and I don't think she wants me doing that in the living room. plus my welds look good on a lawnmower no so great on something that needs to look nice.

I love the wood and need to do this on a future build.

Regarding the frame issue, it the seat mast weld to the BB? That frame looks similar to many CWC frames where the seat mast is welded on the inside of the BB. Sometimes the paint just cracks along the tube. I can’t see the issue.

Ok I use new vegtan leather it will work with other leathers to.

It will never come off the friction between the wax leather and polishing pad burn the leather giving it an aged look I go longer it will get darker.wish the stencil would have been better. It's a tea light candle I'm using

How do you plan to test torpedoes with that jewel removed?
That's the abort button we took the tests kits apart at work I'd love to get more stuff from work we take everything apart from battleships,tanks to power transformers if it has PCBs we destroy it
