Gunter, awesome work on the BP. The armor effect, tools, latches and printed parts are superb. The winch is a masterpiece. Lovely work - keep it going!
Best regards,
Bob

Hi guys,

just a short update due to my Bergepanther. I have placed the wooden deck. Thanks to Michael, who has aged the Wood.





The tow bars from Fabrice in place, but I have to replace the front fasteners


The wooden beam is also exchanged by a bigger one.

Hi guys,

here is an update of last weeks work.
I built a working pulley based on some pictures and a drawing. The wheels are printed, some parts are milled and others like the chain is bought.








Then I added some missing details to the r/h hull




and to the front




suporting struts for the flatbed side walls




Last but not least I built a working frame linkage for te rain cover










Next will be the rain cover.

Hi guys,

based on some pictures I made last year in Bovington, I reworked the covers for the fuel and the cooling water filling funnels.




Two weeks ago I received the casted parts for the lifting handles at the flat bed panels

Super parts! Well done again.
cheers
Fabrice

A truly spectacular job: my compliments for the level of detail that you've managed to achieve!
Sorry for my bad English.

[Günter Gäbelein]

Thank you for your comments!

Lacopo, your English is better than my Italian

I try to do my best. Next will be the detailing of the engine compartment and some software tuning of the winch.

Hi guys,

here is a short update to my Bergepanther. I have embedded a halve engine to the engine compartment





Small details are still missing to the HL230

Next step was the installation of the winch and of the smoker. It was not easy to find a place for the smoker due to all the inside details






The winch works well with the two stepping motors but it is still not connected to the remote control. Here is a short video captured during testing the winch.

Hi Günter,

very nice cockpit but if I see how the wires coming out of the distribution box, it's not "deutsche Wertarbeit"
