The other day (Brent) sgtsauer posted on a new HUMVEE command post platform (CPP). https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/63442&page=1

Well I thought I try doing some armor and I had a 1046 hummer started, then I saw this post and thought it was cool. I went to work that day, using Evergreen plastic, calculator, 1/35 scale card, drawings from Matt and the internet and this is what I came up with. I was going to and the computer and electronics equipment till I thought "who's going to see it" The rear door will hinge open, even still it's pretty dark inside. So whata you think...

Looks great. The box style that you are using is a little diffrent then the HUMVEE style that we have here. not much but there must be 5 diffrent kinds. but it Looks really good. I think i may have to do a TOC vehicle now.

If you can't find it at your local Hobby Store you can purchase it direct from the company. Ask for Nancy. She is a great lady and will help you out. I buy this way as I can get any size of type they make with no fear of being out of stock.

Joe this is great!! Thanks for the link to the site also. I am going to have to build one of these myself. I only hope that it comes out half as nice as yours is.

is the green board you got there a graph for 1/35 scale models? I have no clue on what it is, but if it is for 1/35 scale models, where could I get one???

Thanks Ric

Richard,
It's a cutting mat for quilters. You can at any Hobby Lobby, Micheals, Wal Mart, or any frabric or craft store.
