So for any of you working on detailing the RR armoured car or chassis, there are lots of places where a 1/32nd inch round head rivet is useful. Probably other models, too, as this scales up to 3/16th.
I finally found a source for these... which is R.S. Trade Supplies, Stoneleigh, UK. About L 5.00 for 200 of them. wesells@outlook.com
I am not affiliated with them, except as a happy customer.
Some of these really tiny fasteners, etc. are difficult to track down in the U.S. There are more places available in the UK that have model engineering supplies (more model engineers per-capita in UK than probably anywhere, is my bet...) but many of these dealers won't ship to USA. The folks at R.S. do and so they are worth mentioning, especially for us U.S. modelers.
Thanks and cheers,
RPR
2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY
Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.
So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.
We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.
Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.
