Don't have any pictures of my dio yet, but if any of you are interested in some shop tools for your 1/18 stuff, definitely pick one of these sets up (not my auction):

I got a few on my guys working on one of the 21C jeeps. It looks great.

Great find! Those look cool for a modern dio.
I've been looking for 1/18th tools circa WWII to fill my Jeep up with. I found that the wrench from the 1982 Raiders of the Lost Ark German Mechanic works very well. Please post pics of your diorama as soon as its ready.

I was lucky enough to get a set of these over here in the UK and they are very good quality and the metal gives it that little bit extra feel wise. If i could find some more i would definately get them. The one i got was a variant on this though as it had a different tool box.

I have that set too. I made a garage DIO a few years ago. They make a set with gas pumps, soda machine, and tire rack. Well worth the $10 or $15. There's also a 4-post car lift for 1/18 too.

I agree, and I may have to get a set or two of these. Nice work, and thanks for sharing that link with us.
