• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

    Bringing Sixty's Dingo back to life

    Hi All, With the announcement of the new metal model I didn't see the point in continuing with this project and to be honest was hoping to get my hands on one and then do a detail job on it. Two things have made it necessary to rethink my plans. The first is unfortunately it is out of my price...

    75mm Panther Shells

    Hi All, Test shots of the 75mm Panther Shell from the Werkstatt-5 masters with the addition of a primer plug. Once the shell case has been cleaned from its casting plug the idea is you drill a short hole into the base then add the primer. These will be added to the range soon. Best regards...
