Re: team combat penguin build diarys

any pics?

[jonny]

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

overall condition is good, most of the frame is rusty but the armour panels are actually quite rust free. most of the bolts need replacing aswell. for some reason the flipper is welded shut at 1 point (about an inch of weld) so will need to grind it off. hinge could do with replacing aswell. most of the armour is covered with a layer of 4mm polycarb which is nice. it currently weighs approximately 65kg. all in all it's a nicely designed machine in need of some tlc and a large amount of time with a wire brush

pictures will happen soon

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

funny, i got told my shell is 25kg

mine will probably be in much the smae way

[jonny]

Re: team combat penguin build diarys

when are you collecting yours matt? i assume 25kg is a typo/miscalculation, i don't see how a heavy shell of that size armoured in 3mm mild steel could weigh just 25kg! forgot to mention before, my one has bosch 750 mounts aswell really love how it looks, it's alot more compact than metanoia aswell, we managed to get it in the boot without folding down the seats!
