Hi Simon,

What Jeff said!

Love the mesh covers on the intake and exhaust fan guards! Great job on the guards themselves as well. Keep the pictures coming please.

Kind regards
Tim

Hi Simon

Wow! That is some high quality builds you have there.
Love your attention to details - keep up the good work.

Simon,
Brilliant work on the mesh gaurds for the fans and grilles. They look awesome. The cast numbers look great. Nice work all around.

Still don't know how you can work on several models at the same time!

i have been building the turret this week,big and heavy!,i consructed the rear deck with non standard brackets fixed underneath to allow easy access to the batteries and electrics,steve winstone supplied the rear hatch,[superb it is] these king tigers are impressive when they start to come together,all for now,

These are the aluminium U-shaped lenghts i bought from B&Q to make the rear deck one complete piece so you cas lift it out as one. To gain access to the electricts, very simple to fit and cheap! £1.25p for a length, (which was enough to do both sides) the fit is perfect and strong!

Excellent Simon

Love the rear deck photos!

Hi Simon . Your KT is looking amazing!!! . Are you going to fill the bolts holes and do the welds soon ?? otherwise it will be hard to do it when all the detail in on ....Dale

Hi Simon....great pics! Can you tell me what wire gauge and mesh size you have used for the grille covers?
Thanks
Martin

hi martin, they are the standard ones supplied with the king tiger kit,mark at armortek will know, time consuming to fit,but the end result looks o.k.

hope this helps,simon manning.

Hi Simon,
The aluminum U-shape frame for rear deck is a brilliant idea!
Only concerned is the deck supports LH(CK0115) & RH(CK0115_M). Are they still being used?

Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks Simon, I'm only opening the packs as I get to that stage and had missed the reference to mesh in the manual as it is in the "details" pack rather than the grilles. Your way to achieve a single deck structure looks very good indeed....thank you for sharing it!

hello chang, i left the deck supports out,using the u-channel as i did the fit is just right,i will use the existing holes behind the turret to secure the deck when being run,hope this helps.

hi simon!!!

just want to say fantastic work on your KT!!!

regards peter,peppe.
