Martin !

Nice work and thanks for sharing :D

A quick question. What as the size and diameter of the roll pins you used for the swing arms. My T1 is boxed still but I want to have the roll pins ready.

Regards,

Chris.

Here comes some small update. I made some parts of the back side of the Sturmtiger.
The starter plate with the starter, the armoured covers of the exhausts and all their casting numbers and the casting surfaces are done.

Here are the next photos of the self made simulated L-angle at the under side of the hull, riveted to the plate above.
The next photos are showing the progress of the hull. Slowly it looks like a tank :D :D
