Ground anchor for my Troll

These came today all ten of them, been looking for them for a long time, these are just how I remember them, now got to source a bit of heavy tube about 4 inch in diameter weld a loop on each end and drill ten holes, hope to test it Sunday at new P & P site near Slindon, supposed to be opening for first time, called Slindon Valley, Rick

If they can get a challenger tank out of the s**t I'm sure they will get you free.
Only thing they don't supply is the muscle to knock them in and pull them back out again.

Knocking em in will be easy, I usually have muscle available, and getting em out will be a winch job once I get close to em

That's the Swedish Army stamp Rick.

To find 10 of them is quite something!
