On my list though is a push hand drill vs a twist drill like my old ones. I got a chance to use someone else's a few years ago and was surprised how much easier it was. <br /><br />Good to see these old friends. My very first set of guards (and we are talking maybe 5?) were some cheap fellows on oval bases with black hats and pants and that's it but these Crescent Guards followed a year or two later. They fell victim to my new teenage hobby of converting Toy soldiers into Model soldiers but bits of some of them are still floating around.<br />Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798056059089761235.post-47621129594739656112020-04-01T10:18:19.032+01:002020-04-01T10:18:19.032+01:00Ha Ha ! have used the jammed draw method as well !...Ha Ha ! have used the jammed draw method as well !The Good Soldier Svjekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08749564052124659180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798056059089761235.post-60225273677250291552020-04-01T09:09:52.109+01:002020-04-01T09:09:52.109+01:00I have just ordered one, thanks for the link.
