Hi all
Just some pictures to start my Tiger build. First and last are from building
table, then some from storage and finally the assambly that went very well.
Arrows on parts indikate way of filing ,and how much off senter. Hope this may be to some help. From this stage it goes to dismantling and Kent treatment.

Wow - you are already well underway!

I admire your tidyness - your workshop is like in a swiss watch!

Judging from the drum cupola, you too are going to backdate your Tiger

Thanks for the pictures - great fun!

Cheers,
/Chris

Seeing your Tank in its early stages shows how things have developed, my early Tiger is quite primitive by comparison. I makes me appreciate how things have improved, even though you have to do battle with a few millimeters here and there. I lowered my rear deck using an angle grinder and a Dremel drill which took a lot of angst! If you are producing an early Tiger may I congratulate you and look forward to seeing how it will proceed!
Best wishes
Steve

Good one Ragnar,I'm super impressed with your workbench and workshop.
Looks like it's going to be a protracted campaign in Norway judging by the ammunition you have stockpiled.Very nice storage system as well,you were well prepared for your tigers arrival.
Regards
Andy

Hi all

Thank`s for the kind words, I have to admit that I am a former watchmaker. Tidy workbench are a must. You are right, I am backdating
to an early version. Iam waiting for Mike`s feifel system. Now I am going to do the world famous Kent treatment all over .
