Looks like a fun game. I second the question of where you got those tri-pods?

Oh yes, lovely pics. What rule system do you use?

I've been after a handling machine for ages without any luck, cant seen to find one on the Second City website, do you have a link?

Looking forward to more pics.

Thanks for that.

Just had an outrageously fast response form Tony at Second City who has advised that while they dont stock them at the moment they have been trying to get a re-supply from the sculptor without any luck  :(.

Well TC the mancatcher was a far more easy kit to construct. I had to use steel pins & extra knee joints along with 'harsh words' to put the Tripods together!
