You'll love the egg Carl. Bought one last year and use it a lot for meat, fish and pizza and baking bread. Yes it's perfectly suited for pizza with dry heat, best I had home made. Today we will have some solomillo, that's beef fillet along with baked potatoes and home made sour cream and with the dying heat, I smoke some salmon, while adding chips of beech tree for the aroma. Sometimes, I add a little dried fig wood to enhance the taste of beef with it's aromatic smoke. Well, I'm getting hungry, I have to feed my egg, to feed me .

Cheers Rob

Rob, we love the Egg. This is our second one. We got our first as a wedding gift. It was Sue's suggestion at the time. We had a bad wind storm here back in May that knocked a neighbour's tree down. It knocked down the fence which hit both of our BBQs. The gas one was dented and our Egg ended with getting chipped. The insurance company replaced both and we finally got them. 

Let us know what you needed up making.

Yizzz.

I'm seeing spots...

[DocRob]

Finally I found some time and hit the bench with an in between build. The Duchess of Kingston will be continued in late autumn with more time at hand to start the rigging, which I will do fully concentrated. 
An now to something really strange... Sorry for the bad pics.

Cheers Rob

I'm curious what it is. Looks like a straight 8 but can't figure out the chassis.

Upper hull, meet lower hull:

I hope for something like this Carl, if I my plan for the camo works out. It's a WW1 Italian Lancia, used in the Spanish civil war. The kit is from Copper State and it's a little gem.

Nice to see you cutting and gluing styrene again and sure it's a truck or armored vehicle of some kind. How about a hint or two?

Just read your follow up post: a Copper State WW1 Italian Lancia. The subject is quite unique and the cammo scheme looks awesome. Hoping for a build thread.

 

 

[harv]

John. It's Mark's truck, not Rob....lol

Nice choice for your current build - not being well versed or even versed at all in armor, my money is on a modern day battle tank

 

[BlrwestSiR]

Peter, it's the Amusing Hobby E100 heavy tank. It's a bit of a WHIF as they only got as far as a single chassis before the war ended. The Brits ended up using it for target practice. 

I needed something to work on that was easy while assemblies on the CF-104 were drying.

Got ya .. nice fill in project

 

[smitty44]

Unbuildable! Intake transition to the leading edge needs to be filled and smoothed, but should come out just fine.

[Martinnfb]

Pretty sweet for short run kit.  Thank you for sharing Marine

[BlrwestSiR]

Yes, thanks for sharing the pic Smitty.  It doesn't look any worse than a PCM or Fly kit.

Been working on Tamiya's 1/35 Valentine Mk. II/IV  today. Not much to show.

I plan to do a Soviet tank without the side skirts and brownish-green paint.

Did some work on the lower hull. The fit is pretty good. I used a couple dabs of

Mr. Surfacer to fill some tiny gaps here and there. It's a cool model of a strange little

tank. I thought I'd do something British for a change. I was not aware that some models,

including this one, used American engines and transmissions.

It's actually four cylindered. There are eight screwed-in inserts on the en-bloc cylinder head. Each covers an engine valve. And four have places for spark plugs.
