• 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.

    I just sold a AH 250 to one of the members at SAG. He wanted my Demag real bad, but I decided to keep it, so I sold him a 250 at a great deal because he wanted one. Just found out he is selling it on Ebay for 3 times for what I sold it to him for. Beware of selling to so called fellow 1/6ers...

    Joelanta Goodies, Part 1

    Here are some of the images of what I intended on taking to Joelanta. I ran out of screws so I didn't get to take them. They are being completed now. You get an idea of what they will look like. They represent late war with leather hinges, belts and buckles and rope handles.
