FYI - going to be a break in the build for a bit, not sure how long. I am getting the final sub work done for the pool run tomorrow...

You wouldn't be able to tear yourself away.re: Marv's post...I've seen some of that work. The ingenuity used to put models into dioramas or making them appear 'real' is amazing and really adds to the hobby.Sort of like seeing a turtle in a tub...but not quite.
Well, the turtle was a natural in the pool, swam very well! Got pics and videos, will put them up in the morning probably. Just a few minor tweaks needed, but for first run of a complex mechanism it went quite well, very happy about that. Good thing, since tomorrow noon I go in to get a tooth removed and bridge installed, so will be out of the shop for a while, don't know how long, and the elves are bad at posting about their work. So see you all when that crap is all done!

Enjoy. Dentist. Dentist. Enjoy. Sorry, those words go together as well as you enjoying your time at work!
Really cool Chris. Thanks for the videos as well as the pictures. Now you can go and enjoy the dentist Bill
The turtle is awesome Chris. Interesting perspective in the video with the hand on it's back, for some reason i thought that it was going to be a lot larger from the build photos.C
