I'd need a ton of PE4 to make a small dent in my stash !

Good one Karl. Never seen one built. I'm still two days away from even creating a thread

 

[Crimea_River]

I'm forever away from creating mine. Not gonna make this one and there's no way I'll finish GB 43.

Nice choice Karl. Looking forward to seeing what you create with this.

thank you chaps.

will probably be starting in a couple of weeks when i have 4 days off then things will slow until the new year as its almost silly season here

 

[fubar57]

After tomorrow night I'll have 21 days off. I want to finish all three off mine
