Thankyou. And that must have been an experience and a half! It's probably my 3rd favorite car after the Napier Bently & the Auto Union C
You may notice a certain trend here.... Insanity is what it's called. @StrykrIV
Millitary stuff is not very extensive, as most is at my grandparents house and the medals my family members have won aren't in my possession. But the stuff I do have is probably stuff all you Mercians have seen before (bullets) there is a casing from the Spanish civil war somewhere (I may have misplaced it somewhere) and I also have some WW1 shell pieces that are all in nice condition, but by far my most prised military possession is a piece of original oak from HMS victory due to the trees being about 100-200 years old when cut, the wood is most likely 400 years old, plus has seen the greatest naval battle in history.
If I talked about fossils I'd be here all day, as I'm a keen collector and hunter but I specalise in collecting marine, and plant fossils and only have a few things in the way of land animals. TBH I'm running out of space, my house if full of rocks lol... The curse of a geologist.
I reccomend going to your local telescopic dealer (or Amazon) and buying an eyepiece adapted for a phone,gopro or any old camera, they usualy work quite well, you can get ones for smartphones that are very good too, I'm planning on getting one soon so yeah, expect to see some pics of Jupiter.
part count? oh and btw you can actually make the lamps lights that turn on and off. if you need any help with something just let me know. ive finished my latest project!
@MeetThyDoom
@TheLatentImage Yea going through some family problems ATM should all be over soon, ive been building a few things, just three 'BIG' projects one is almost done and the other two are at draught stage, and one i will definatly finish as ive been promising to make it for almost 2 years!!!
do not mention that dog** game with no care for historical accuracy and no respect to all Britons who fought in the great war or 1914-18. @Wildblueyonder578
It's really not beleive me, in my glory days My record was 18 in the first 10 mins, and that was not a lot, a hypnotoad upload would typically get about 20 in that time. @plane918273645
I can, sort of but getting the wheels correct will be quite hard. I had an idea on the style and though we should go with something like glen curtiss' record breaker with its v8 @RedHawk
If you are one of my followers you should allready have locations in the bowl, I'm just suggesting some things I don't want you to crash it! @AudioDud3
Call yourself a gun nerd, shame on you! Black powder was developed in the late 9th century (800-900AD) in China and the first weapons using black powder came around 1100AD these were primitive rockets developed from fireworks, and shortly after primitive cannons that fired stone balls with straw wadding became reliable enough for them to be fired at an enemy without them killing your cannon crew (a very bad thing) This type of cannon (commonly known as a Bombard) reached European lands shortly afterwards now it had been developed from a bamboo tube that would explode whilst firing the cannonball to a large iron barrel like gun that might explode whilst firing the cannonball. Shortly after the Europeans started using Handgonnes basicly a tiny bombard (they had been around in China since the invention of the gun) that you could carry, they were used in small numbers mainly defending or assaulting castles, to fire you loaded it like a cannon and dimly lit it with a smouldering rope or 'match' this carried on and guns really weren't replacing crossbows and longbows very fast, but the next big development changed that, this was the matchlock, that allowed the gun to be fired with a trigger, these appeared in mid-late Tudor times and were used with great effect in the English civil war in the mid 1600s they basicly used a flintlock mechanism exept the hammer would strike the pan from the opposite direction, and it would hold a match (smouldering rope) these guns made huge amounts of smoke and were difficult to load and had horribly harsh recoil (I saw a guy bowled over trying to fire one without a firing stand) then came the Wheel lock, that generated a spark by spinning a wheel against a flint, this was mainly used in pistols and was developed a bit later than the matchlock but was not used as much. Then comes the flintlock, in the 1700s a good reliable lock, easy to repair and maintain. The best flintlock IMO was the English Brown Bess used in the nepolionic war to great effect! Cannons stayed the same untill this point, a few years before the start of the nepolionic war rifles were invented, basicly a flintlock with a riffled barrel, the baker rifle also served with the green jackets in the nepolionic wars, cannons stayed the same untill after the nepolionic war when rifling was adopted, and then shells and breach loading the history of the gun is vast my friend, and it's been around longer than 300 years! @Testin123
Lol round where I live in bucks (uk) the wreaths go up on the doors the day after Guy Fawkes night. 5th November. And the lights go up a few days before December but turn on on the 1st.
The cockpit is a bit off now that I look at it, but who cares when the engine is detailed right?

Ah one of my favorite American planes. @Liquidfox
Did you see my last build? I need a bit of feedback. @TheLatentImage
wow looks like something I would make lol. @TheLatentImage
WWII was after 1939, but I like the model T, especially the sportster version. @TrainDude
I have a better more PlanesOfOld car in mind. The Beast of Turin. @RailfanEthan
lol @Spikerya
Simply because in 1921 it was hard to make something perfect with wood and canvas. also it may be my error in fine tuner lol. @DestinyAviation
LOL I adore the self destruct feature I am addicted... too addicted to F10...@Tully2001
ah! thankyou friend!
@Avro683Lancaster
@Dynamicneedle and how does one nudge?
It is the same plane but, the B57 was a licenced build of the originally British EE Canberra. @Pilotmario
Use the superwing in my toolbox.
That is uploaded I think. @Spikerya
Hi from new MSI Apache! @MeetThyDoom
That's a secret ;)
@AaltonenIndustries
Nooooooooooooooo pls no spoils it hasn't come out in the uk yet!
I agree. @Testin123

What's with the KDS? @KDS
Indeed sir. That is my secondary and currently inactive account. I used it when I was assaulted by a certain old colonel as an escape. @MechWARRIOR57
Hahah. If you mean V for victory, then scissors are always victorious my friend. @Destroyer5713
I can, sort of but getting the wheels correct will be quite hard. I had an idea on the style and though we should go with something like glen curtiss' record breaker with its v8 @RedHawk
Thanks man if you like this style be sure to check out the stationary engines I uploaded with it! @Othawne
Booooooo! He's german! I cannot believe Hamilton let a German win!

It has tiny drag, take the landing gear off to simulate them being up, and you will find that the areoplane has hardly any drag. @dovahdesigns
