Armortek

a bit more to share

sanded and polished the casing for the drivesprocket and also made a bit of a casting look on the sprockets themselves. Hard to see, but it will be nice when painted

lower part of the cuppola was also just fittet

A question to the suspension

How much shall the end of the suspension arm be in the corresponding opposite hole where the screw goes in from the outside. If the steel rod is pushed all the way in in both ends, it will not be able to reach the hole.

any suggestions/recommentation?

Hello Steen,

About the suspension bars, i measure that the suspension rods are on each side just past the two grub screws.
I tested this with a dry fit.

best regards Yves

Hi Steen,

I would put both end parts in without the torsionbar first, so both ends (CL0205 and CL0222) can reach the optimum position. Then measure the between inner ends dimension and middle out the torsion bar position.

Thanks all for the advice

Not much jas happened, beside tons of work and a house sale that just went through

Bump stops and sprocket installed

Some dry fitting work done today

Nice work Steen, its starting to look more and more like a StuG

Yes it is

Will be a very beautiful Stug next to your Tiger my friend.

Look forward to the day we can meet again Robert

A bit done on the roadwheels

Soon my friend soon.
First a vaccination against covid, then load the Tiger in the car and take a trip to your course.

Roadwheels waiting for arrival of milliput for welds

You can look forward to visit the panzer drive field. We have now digged trenches also and even built a driving commander platform where we can overlook the entire battle area and drive the tanks from the platform. No more walking behind the tanks for navigation through the battle area

Next is buildings, roads and tree vegetation

A bit more work on the stug

Some more pics

Ready for welding
