I also do not think that the tank in that photo is 323. The modelers guide to the Tiger tank page 9 lower photo has nearly the same photo of the same tank. Also note that this tank is using the later type of Feifel canisters. Same page upper photo shows 323 with the canisters removed. Actually I thi...

OK Dave.
In case I need to reduce the number of drawings that I have then I won't feel bad if I delete yours.

Dave I just realised that as you are using Fusion 360 I can now send you the original archive file (.f3d) of that Chieftain search light I made for you. Please advise. Vince p.s. As there will be restrictions introduced to Fusion 360 Personal license users like me, I do not know if I would be able t...

That looks awesome Dave. Welcome to the 3D world.

My impression is that a step drill is used for sheet metal.

Will it work on the rear plate?

I'm going for the hl230 motor so which crank hole position do I use?

Page 40 of the Modeler's guide to the Tiger Tank gives a hint. For the HL230 (as I understand it), the hole closest to the edge of the starter plate is used for the starter shaft.

Vince

Nice.

Great result Florian.

Always nice to see the printed results. They turned out quite well.

Managed to find a cached webpage with the pictures: https://web.archive.org/web/20120108063912/tiger1.info/EN/Batteries.html Hope this...

When is the MOT due?

Hi Scott I had the same problem when building my late Tiger 1 which uses the same kind of wheels as the King Tiger. You will not find commercial M2.5 X 30mm hex head bolts. At that time, these guys: https://www.ekpsupplies.com/ had something similar but it was a 7BA thread and one size smaller head ...

the camo is just a mesh scarf

Thanks Phil for that piece of information. Had to google it also as it was the first time I heard of these scarves. Now I know what to look for.

Vince

That's a lovely pair of Tigers Phil.

From where did you get the camouflage net?
