I found that my first tank took a long time to build (18 months I think). My second asset (the M113) was progressing quite nicely until life got in the way. I know I started building that one last summer and it's still not finished all the way (although it's mobile). My third assest (KV-2) was ro

As the builder of the third operational tank (T005) I guess I'm one of those "elitist old boys". The wall of shame was a joke. Maybe not as finely crafted as juggling little doggy heads was but a joke none-the- less. In hindsight I guess "Field of Unfulfilled Dreams" would have been better. Not

I know there are personal issues and tragedies that get in the way of building an asset. After all, this hobby is about building and battling giant toy tanks and there are a lot of things in life that need to come first. That said, I can empathize with Neil. Even the "elitist old boys" are
