If everything is cleaned up, the axles should slide in and out by hand. Tightening the nut locks the bearings and spacer and seal tracks etc, up, and makes it a rigid assembly.

Sorry David, I was just being smart
 The plates give access to the electrical that is supplied to the turret as per the very informative 97 drawings I have been lucky to aquire.Hi Chris, as these little tanks had specific names given to them (Wombird and Bowerbat ) oops! no I mean "Wombat" and "Bowerbird" I think I need to keep them as original as I can and paint them as you see there which is Khaki Green No3 All information I have to date is they were the dark green when first brought here and painted with the Aust green after. Great photos by the way!

Fair enough, especially if you have evidence of the original scheme. Doesn't mean i can't hope though...

Not a problem, Colin. The fact you are in such good humour tells me the project is going very well for you.
Has much, if anything, of the electricals from either tank survived for you to work with? Be nice if some did, or Vickers maintained some standardization with other Marks with regards to the electrical system. David
