Re: 88 parts
Hi Phil, I always thought the canon on the flak gun was much longer than the one on the tiger. Are they the same?Phil Woollard wrote: ↑Thu Apr 20, 2023 6:45 pmRefurbishment of my newly acquired 88 parts, anyone have a Tiger 1 cannon they don't want?

Re: 88 parts
Internally very similar as you would expect Brian, I would need to do some turing to the outside diameters.

Re: 88 parts
I think I'm ok posting photos of our 88 so long as I don't show my own parts? I do hope the 88 is re-released as it's a great piece.

- Machining the pry bars detail, I'm slowly working through the bogies, I'm keen to reproduce the brakesmans seat and associated controls.

- I've flatened the cable drum discs, well just about flat.
-
- Is this cable the correct diameter? I've been told that it wasn't just coms cable as it linked together the other guns in the battery gun laying devices .

Re: 88 parts
The brakemans chair and 5 mtrs of coms cable is not going to be enough.
You guys are going to love building the new flak kit from Armortek, there's so much going on and so much to go on.

- Interesting photo.

- There are some tricky bends in that chair frame.

- That's 5 mtrs of cable and as the circumference increases with each turn I'm going to need a lot more

- The upper row of holes in the seat pan can now be filled.
