Well that's all folks!

For now anyway.

There will be a short intermission then, courtesy of Bryan again, on with the 17 Pdr while we wait on the metal moulds and production from our casters.

A last minute addition to the kit is some muzzle brake detailing courtesy of Howard from the UKTC and his 3D printer.

Best regards

Dave

Superb Dave,

You have done very well in producing, creating all these wonderful parts for the PaK 43.

Short intermission indeed.

Looking forward to adding all these to my own PaK someday!

Cheers for now
Ian

Hi All,

I've had the first few metal parts through and have cast pretty well everything else in resin for now. Although there are a couple of bits still missing this is pretty well the full assembly. I'll have this, my 25 Pounder and Limber and hopefully the 17 Pdr on show at Tiger day, Bovington at the end of the month before I start hiding everything under paint.

Best regards

Dave

Hi Dave,

Great to see some base coats on the PaK 43 kit.

I've not made any starts on my own Pak 43, yet………..still in the land of "Upgrades" on my 25 PDR gun.

What with your own 25 PDR and Limber kites and hopefully your 17 PDR gun, the line up should be great.

Have a good time at Bovington, Tiger Day, hope the weather improves by then!

Best regards
Ian

Fantastic work Dave, it looks like the real one at Bovington in the sheds. Really good work and a great paint job.
