Ripaman Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 What happened to your pictures Richard? I am not sure, I did move them to another file in Photobucket, they were not deleted, this has not happened before??? I will repost them tomorrow.

Cat_baloo Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 That's the unfortunate fact with photos. When you move them the links stop working. You have to repost them under the new links. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I am not sure, I did move them to another file in Photobucket, they were not deleted, this has not happened before??? I will repost them tomorrow. Regards Richard Yeah, if you move them within Photobucket, it breaks their links, and you have to re-link them. When you paste in the links, notice that they contain the name of the PB album you've used. If you move the photos to a different album, they won't be found in the original album any more.

Ripaman Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 Thanks Cat-baloo, Kev and Jerry, When I uploaded to Photobucket they went to another file, then I moved them to my Hurricane file, did not think they would delete of the forum.

Ripaman Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) Good evening all, Started to machine one of the legs from a drawing I have, took a little while to think which way to machine but I think I got it, now have to machine the other one. Got it as close to scale as poss, as you will see on the next picture the aftermarket one I bought is close but they got the dia wrong, same as the kit part, but then again I think it is a copy of the kit part. Then took one of the leg brackets and filed to shape, still need to machine the middle out but came out not to bad, Just to give you an idea of size I thought I would put it on my hand, Still quite a few pieces to make, having lots of fun with this, here are a couple more pictures, Thats it for now Regards Richard Edited May 28, 2013 by LSP_Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
