Re: M32B1
As is usually the way, after I made the vice mounting plates, I found some more detailed photos which show recessed screws holding the plates together. So I drilled out some small holes and added some Aber PE soltted screw heads...

Re: M32B1
Slow progress of late as real life getting in the way of modelling
The tool boxes are provided as PE options by Voyager, but I felt I could do a better job with styrene. After a couple of days here is the main box with tools strapped in place and dry fitted to the hull...

Thanks Woody
Very slow progress still, but started work on the two smaller tool boxes which mount either side of the engine deck....

Re: M32B1
Next up are the spare wheel holders....
Easier to fully build these prior to adding the wheel so everything can be soldered. I simply leave the 4 cross pieces flat so the wheel can be slipped in. The ends are then bent up.
Ideal opportunity to leave at least one holder empty too....

Re: M32B1
I really don't like the plastic in amongst all that etch and resin - I think the plastic bits are spoiling it
