Phenomenal!
I cant think of any new superlatives Colin to describe this thread and the work your doing.
I just glanced at the clock and noticed, I have been looking at this thread for over an hour. It is truly mesmerising...  It is fantastic to think of all the history you're preserving.... Just one question....what the heck are your going to do with all these when they're finished?? Maybe invade Victoria and take it in a classic 'Pincer movement' ???

Restoration
I was going to suggest I film a timelapse but it's happening too quickly for the camera to see!
If Colin can do armour in this timeframe then a softskin restoration from a rusty hulk with most parts missing would be a matter of mere minutes.

farm dump
Hey Colin,
We found this box full of goodies on a farm bump but I don't know what the plates with the four holes are for, any clues?

They look like 2lb case mounts. Bren mounts and port covers. Perhaps they came off a 2lb tank attack carrier. Nice little find just the same. We don't have those finds here in Adelaide.
 Colin.

A bit of a slow day today. I just got some more painting done and prepared a diff to come out of a donor carrier. I also caught my little bloke "Andrew" in the shed lifting his pedal tractor with the overhead gantry. His answer was that it need to be restored and he did not need any of my help. I can't wait for him to get older then I can get him help me
 Colin.

This is absolutely amazing.
 At this rate Colin, you could end up setting a new "Year of the Carrier" record by yourself. There would be plenty of volunteers for drivers. Peter
