• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

    My 1/6th Collection on Display

    Wife and I got tired of the San Antonio summers, and bought a condo in my hometown of North Canton Ohio. It has a basement where I built shelves and moved most of my collection. Pics coming when I figure out how to post them. For now, they are here...

    Personal Update

    Thanks for all your prayers. They must be working as the last pet scan showed nothing unexpected. Start chemo tomorrow. Bought a snowbird condo in North Canton, Ohio which has a 25'x12' basement rec room to finally dispay all my toys. They are currently in a 5x10 storage locker stacked to...

    Many thanks for all the encouraging words and your prayers. I am progressing better than anybody expected. My surgeon said I am a poster boy for brain surgery. That's not an honor I really wanted. I have 10-15 days of radiation therapy followed by who knows how much chemo coming up, but my...

    Nashorn Sd.Kfz.164 Build

    Looks great. I swore I would never attempt a metal tank, but I might have to rethink that.

    Panzerjuan Flat Plastic SdKfz 222 questions

    I made a wooden dummy spare wheel, covered with canvas as most were in the pics I saw. Used a 1/4" bolt through the hull to fasten it. the cover hides it.

    Armor Hobbies 250 hull question

    I bought four or so, with no problems like that. I wonder if that batch got close to heat? I know heat and sunlight make styrene brittle. Don;t know about ABS.

    Marder II Conversion Kit is on

    I'll go for the second test cut this weekend, and get pics up. A lot of trial and error is involved to get things right, and my laser cutter is 15 miles away. I'm glad to see panzerwerk is offering the driver's visor among his II F parts. That will save me a lot of time.

    Czech 38 vehicle question

    Great idea. There was a lot of interest in my Gepard when I first made it. Panzerwerk sells the wheels and tracks, so you could concentrate on the hull.

    Marder II questions

    I am progressing nicely on the conversion kit, but I am hung up on a couple points. 1. What is the difference between the early and late version? I have drawings of both from the Armor Photogallery book, but cannot see any difference. 2. The 21st Pak 40 has a curved arm with teeth...

    Detailing The Panzer II Part 4. Converting to Ausf F

    Mike, will you consider selling just the F-style driver's visor? This part will be needed for the Marder II conversions.

    Marder ll (late version)

    A couple questions.... 1. What is the difference between the early and late version? I have drawings of both from the Armor Photogallery book, but cannot see any difference. 2. The 21st Pak 40 has a curved arm with teeth extending downward from the bottom. I assume this is the elevating...

    Quality of TAOWAN Vehicles.

    I bought the 222, but have not bought any other Tao Wan vehicles, and will not. No problem with stinky tires, but I do have a problem with bad spot welds, and broken off parts revealing extensive rust underneath. I would keep children far away from it. Risk of Tetanus infection should not be...
