Hey Dale, love your work on this.
The added detail and workmanship are inspirational.
It makes me very keen to get started on the Tiger.

Loaders hatch detail done . Did the Hatch pivot all the way back or was there a stop ? Dale

Hi Dale, it is certainly looking good. I think you will find when it is fully open it sits on a block with a sprung latch/hook to hold it in the open position.
Hope that helps.
Regards, Dave.

I went trawling through my collection of YouTube videos for you. Check out S2E5: Driving & Shooting a Sherman Tank!
If you pause it at 5:37 it will hopefully help you.
Regards, Dave.

Thanks for the heads up David . I Haven't seen that video before very good detail . The hold back latch I can copy from the one I made for the travel lock ... How good would it be to own the machine !! Dal
