Hi John
If your Turret Roof is ok loose mine should be,I didnt do the shelf like yours,I just
packed the support blocks to get a nice leval and was worryed more about the miliput
welds arround rhe roof.
The most I will be driving over is some nice logs that I saved from a dead tree I had
to chop down
Look forward to seeing your Turret lights,that will make a difference when looking
through the hatches.
Your new Tiger build will be nice to follow,I am looking forward to seeing all your
parts going inside.
I still havent been able to open that Tiger Gun file that you sent me to look at,do
you know what program I need to open it,the file extension is ".rar"
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil,
I'm useless with computers. You need to download a program to open RAR files. My computer expert is away at the moment.

Just to recommend a book. Tiger at war, the at war series. Michael Green & James Brown. Some great clear interior pictures of the Tiger 1 and Tiger 11. I got it as a present from somebody who has no interest in tanks and was pleasantly surprised.

I have had no problems with the turret roof while driving or transporting.

Thanks John,
I will have a look for that book and check out the
opening of that rar file
Cheers

Hi Phil,

A file with rar ext on it is similar to a zip file, I haven't used the one below but it should work, if you haven't sussed it already.

[Ray Brown]

very nice work phil. are they scratch built radios or kit?

cheers

Hi Ray
Thanks for that.
The Radio's are the Panzerwerk Kits,details are great and you get a set
of decals with them.
I painted most of what I could,but I was defeated by the decals.
I could barely see them under an 8 X magnifier let alone handle them
The only thing I noticed though on their webb site photographs,is how much the
outside edges of the decal stood out,so I didnt mind.
I managed to cut a few lables and glue them on
Cheers

Application might be helped with decal fixer. Tamiya do small bottles.
