Thanks for that Gary. The trouble with P/e (for me anyway) is that spanners, pliers etc, just look so darn 'flat'.

Just ordered this set:

Thanks Buck.

Well now, I wonder what illicit gains Dodgy Dennis has stored in these then?

The barrels are AM parts but the bands and bungs were scratched.

Dennis has been installing some more equipment:

The gas welding kit didn't come with hoses or torch, so I had to make both as I did on the compressor and the oil drum. The gas cylinder retainging chain was also scratched.

More great scratch building, and the compressor looks amazing. The rust spots are 'Spot' on.
