Here is the heater that i received.

Hello all,

It was fun to build this unusual item, and finally it will be a bit warmer in the observation bunker in the winter.

The figure is a 1/72 Preiser figure for comparrison, and won't come with the heater. Have fun.

Hi Remco, Or i should enlarge the hole on the roof, so people can watch inside. :mrgreen:
But seriously, there should be a bunkbed expected in a couple of weeks, which i hope to get too.

Hi all, i just received a small package from Helmuth's strongholds, with the content of a tobruk 58c, pigments to paint the bunker, and finally, the writing desk and chair. The whole lot was packed tidely and well secured.
