Hi Chaps,
I had a little time spare today to knock up some new shelves as i think im getting quite serious nowadays with the German Bomb Fuze collecting...
A few new shots for you to enjoy.
I think i will put the one on the lower shelf on their sides as well tomorrow,i quite like the look as you can see the gaines better.

#All inert of course,just like the rest of my collection#

Sheesh Waff... looks like your an addict as well :tinysmile_fatgrin_t

Nice stuff you have there!

 

[Lou]

Beautiful stuff Mr Waffy.Wonder how long it would take to find cutaways for each modle?

 

[Chris 42 RQ]

Nice collection.

Well Waff I am impressed by that superb collection and very nicely displayed too.

Whilst Bomb Fuzes are not really "my thing" I really will keep a look out for that nice Brass Bomb Fuze you have as I could perhaps be tempted :tinysmile_eyebrow_t

Well done matey-way to go !

 

[waffenamt]

Thanks Gents! :tinysmile_shy_t:
It wont be long before some of the larger rounds will be in the space below the shelves as im hoping to have a pair of brackets made to display the complete SC50 on the opposite wall.
Its always good to have a chage around in any collection room to avoid getting bored with it.

Cutaways eh! Hmmm,If i had the skills then i would chop a few of the double ups.

cheers
