Armortek

Just a small piece of brass rod ground on an angle

Notched, soldered ribs and installed fenders - skirts...

Added track cable mounts...made and installed track cable

A very nice Detailed build, worth the wait, regards simon manning.

Started front mud guards ...flaps today..I chose .035 inch stainless steel because I had it......tough stuff to cut !!! I doubled up on the base of the piano hinges as on the Bovington tiger

Just need to add rivets, piano hinges and slide locks....hard or silver soldered hinge ears....much stronger

I absolutely agree! Wish I had your skills!

Looking very good so far.Your welds have come out fantastic and I like that you have corrected the front mudguard attachments, very few have done this. Only thing I can see that needs to be modified is the drivers armored visor.
Looking forward to more updates.

While working on the rivet detail on mud flaps I wanted to try and form a dome on the through stem of the rivet on the underside rather than just smash in down. I ground a small concave depression on the punch...worked well !

Mud flaps are done...off to the paint booth ( trash can just outside my garage )...seems a shame to paint them..I like the bare metal look.....

Reworked drivers visor armor..closer to scale now..before and after

Modified some old original spare track links...cut relief holes in horns and weathered to look like the links on the Bovington tiger and added spare track bar

OMG those correct holes in the tracks are awesome!

Beautiful work Mark - I agree those tracks are perfect. I was planning on doing similar to my Late tracks, plus adding the ice cleats etc. Great details all around. Your Tiger will be superb when finished.
Best regards,
Bob

Messed around with some weathering and heat colored the stainless shackles
