the nice comments
Cheers
Phil

Hi John
If your Turret Roof is ok loose mine should be,I didnt do the shelf like yours,I just
packed the support blocks to get a nice leval and was worryed more about the miliput
welds arround rhe roof.
The most I will be driving over is some nice logs that I saved from a dead tree I had
to chop down
Look forward to seeing your Turret lights,that will make a difference when looking
through the hatches.
Your new Tiger build will be nice to follow,I am looking forward to seeing all your
parts going inside.
I still havent been able to open that Tiger Gun file that you sent me to look at,do
you know what program I need to open it,the file extension is ".rar"
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil,
I'm useless with computers. You need to download a program to open RAR files. My computer expert is away at the moment.

Just to recommend a book. Tiger at war, the at war series. Michael Green & James Brown. Some great clear interior pictures of the Tiger 1 and Tiger 11. I got it as a present from somebody who has no interest in tanks and was pleasantly surprised.

I have had no problems with the turret roof while driving or transporting.

Thanks John,
I will have a look for that book and check out the
opening of that rar file
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil,

A file with rar ext on it is similar to a zip file, I haven't used the one below but it should work, if you haven't sussed it already.

cheers
ray

Hi Ray
Thanks for that.
The Radio's are the Panzerwerk Kits,details are great and you get a set
of decals with them.
I painted most of what I could,but I was defeated by the decals.
I could barely see them under an 8 X magnifier let alone handle them
The only thing I noticed though on their webb site photographs,is how much the
outside edges of the decal stood out,so I didnt mind.
I managed to cut a few lables and glue them on
Cheers

Application might be helped with decal fixer. Tamiya do small bottles.
