Hi Scott,

I am always just one week behind Mr.T's 'Official Build' and have just picked up this weeks' issue 28 from the newsagents, so I will be building that this afternoon, hopefully. I am not modifying mine at all, just doing a standard build, so I don't need to wait for anything to arrive other than my weekly issue. Just brought my build Diary up to date yesterday and will add to it every week from now on hopefully!!

Regards ... Kev. BigGrin

Kev....not really too much point of pics as they are the same as the standard build. Would post if they were any diferent. Took pics of the se7en I built as ( full size BigGrin ) it was a total one off.
Got to take my hat off to the fantastic variants on here though.
Don't know why I have so many screws left over from 27/28 though.

Scott....have just completed 28, but as I said this was 4 issues of not a lot !

BTW I have all the built parts in a draw that is getting full and wondering where the next storage space is coming from Unsure

BigGrin Hi Skiddy,

My build is also the same as the standard build, but I have put up a diary as it is nice to put photos up for all to see and comment on, good or bad, plus we can take photos from different angles to the Official Build Diary, which can help some to see things in a different light maybe. Always nice to compare methinks??

All those extra screws from 27/28 will be needed for attaching the rear suspension arms to the gearbox, etc, as it says in the mag to keep them safe for later in the build, so I would make sure you don't lose them mate, you're gonna need them !!

Dangerous keeping all the built parts in a drawer as they could get all scratched up ?? I wrap mine individually in bubble wrap then keep them separately in the plastic resealable tubs that the wife gives me when she has used all of the clothes washing liquid capsules (Persil tubs)!! Very safe inside them and they can be stacked in a cardboard box for extra safety!! ThumpUp

Regards ... Kev. BigGrin
