Hi All,

With the shows pretty well over now and the decks clear of orders for a few days I have managed to make a start on the PAK 40

Best regards

Dave

Hi All,

I have removed the main part of the breech handle and this will be replaced with a more scale dummy section, I am using the same key and slot in the breech handle shaft as I did on the PAK 43 to allow the breech to be fully spun open. I have also added the wheel hooks.

Best regards

Dave

Hi Dave

Are you able to provide an update on when you are likely to be able to ship these sets?

Please count me as a definite order.

Many thanks.

Hi All,

Resin moulds are all done and ready and my metal casters expect to have the first test shots to me in the next couple of weeks. We will then be able to advise cost and lead time but not far off :-)

Best regards

Dave

Hi All,

Happy New Year.

Courtesy of Rivet (Werkstatt-5) or Mark as some know him :-) we have PAK 40 round masters inbound to go with the release of the PAK 40 update set this month. As soon as they arrive I'll get moulds made and details out. If I get time this week I'll also add the new metal parts to the PAK 40 so its ready for primer and paint.

Best regards

Dave

Hi All,

The PAK 40 is finished and ready for painting. I've replaced most of the resin development parts with the new metal pieces but the odd one's I haven't from the new set are shown in the last pic of the sets.

Best regards

Dave

I just put in my order for the Armorpax detail set for the Pak40! Looking forward to it! I've been putting Dave's stuff on my limber and it's first rate. Turns a great kit into something really special!

Cheers,
