do you have nothing nice or helpful to say to anyone? I mean, it's ok if you have positive criticism, but there was nothing constructive in that post whatsoever... so why on earth do you bother to reply at all? Is it just to practice your BB fonts, colours and itallics?
Let's see your humvee turret... oh yeah, forgot, you haven't made one
Yes, Tucker was quite an innovator in my opinion.
No, my redneck caricature of a real turret, made solely to advertise his business, does not live up to his standards.
The real challenge here was to make a functional and aesthetically similar turret, with a larger diameter than the real one (better for "play time"), with no plans to guide me, in a short time frame.
Every one-off part had to fit the first time to make deadline. Using a mix of welding and machining with no do-overs.
Most fabricators can appreciate what kind of effort that takes.
