Tiger ready to mess with the Russians.....
Lord, give me strength to change the things I am able to change.... and patience to endure the things I can not change A bunch of Tiger and Panther variants, Leo II, Famo, 222s, a few 88`s and smaler ones like Hetzer, Stug III, 251, etc.

Hi Peter
Bring on the T-34s!!
Tiger looks great. Always amazes me how big those are compared to the others.
Kind regards
Tim

Re: Tiger ready to mess with the Russians.....
Hi Peter,
Nice KT built!
On the second photo two things are interesting:
(1)Is the spocket hub cap not pushed in yet, or is there a special way to be stayed like that?
(2) What is the black box-shaped object at the right-front-edge of the hull, underneath the lower spare track pad?
Thanks!
Lerh Chang

Hi Tim and Chang,
Thanks for your nice comments and your questions.....
Here are the answers:
1) The hub cap was not fixed at the time I took the photo. After some driving around in the backyard I took the KT back on the workbench and made some final adjustments (including greasing and fixing the hub caps).
2) The "black box" is just a Jerry Can, like the two on the top photo inside the rack at the left rear end of the KT.
Best regards
Peter

Re: Tiger ready to mess with the Russians.....
Here is a pic with the ball bearing for the turret in place. If you look carefully you can see them between turret and hull.... Compare this pic with the one above!!
You can see that the turret in the top pic "hangs" a little towards the rear. In the pic with the bearing it is leveled.
Regards
Peter
