Strange - another Italian 3D printing company, also doing a SIDAM, has announced the Oto-Melara 76mm SPAAG. I wonder if its a collaboration. The test prints are done so it will be coming out soon I imagine. Photos are on social media.

My last web page I wrote out in html. This was the heady days of MS Paint and dial up!

I'm hoping that "simple machines" (?) can be adapted to whatever style forum? I just really happen to like the GUI of BTS.
