Now i am starting a new project: I think one of the last Sturmtiger out of the box.
The first photos are from the hub caps and the sprockets with the rings. The next are coming.

Re: Martin's Sturmtiger
Thank you guys for the warm welcome,
here are the next photos of the road wheels. On the last photos you can see, that the screw 2 and 4 of every 5 screws are soldered to simulate a screw and not a nut.

Re: Martin's Sturmtiger
Hi David,
hi Robert
thank you so much for your nice words. But i was to early with mounting the Aluminium sprocket rings from Armortek. In the meantime i ordered the beautiful tracks from Liam and his sprocket rings made of steel. The absolut best tracks for a Tiger 1 i ever saw!!!
So i had to dismount the alu rings and mounted again with the steel rings. Also the road wheels and the swing arms are ready and primed.

Re: Martin's Sturmtiger
Agree with you martin 110%
Liam's late Tiger links are absolutely beautiful.
I have them on my Late Tiger also.

Re: Martin's Sturmtiger
Martin the detail work on the road wheels was superb. The smaller m2.5 nuts on the hub look fantastic and the faux bolt heads look perfect, especially with the larger m2.5 rim nuts. Did you use m2.5 nuts from MVD? That was where I was going to source mine for my KT wheels.
