That is SO coool!

Making decent periscopes/episcopes is a science per se and what you are pulling off might just be the best solution to date! Some need just two - others more, like, seven.
The late Mike Stannard had an option of optical glass prisms for his periscope sets. I always thought that to be the absolute, ultimate. There has also been a resin option, pretty blurred, or even milky. The way you do this is very down to business, especially if there is no need for internal detail.
Very exciting, indeed!

Started to make the jack holders on my Tiger. A bit fiddly, drillbit is 0.8mm. And a working wingnut.

That jack holder is looking good Robert. What size is that wing nut?

Always good to follow a Tiger build, Keep going, regards simon manning.

Made some improvement on my Tiger.
The new filling caps are in place.

Did also countersunk all screws on engine deck. Looks more realistic I think.
And did a bit work on the the square screws which I thought were a bit on the larged side.

Starting to paint red primer and reassemble the engine deck.

Robert is full of ideas. Here you get a glimpse of his DIY, foldable spray paint booth. Nifty idea!

Lovely work Robert. Keep it up.

Brilliant work Robert

Started to reassemble the engine deck.
