I have had a few bits from him and have been pleased with what I got. You need to make up a good order, otherwise the shipping charges ruin things for a single item.

Good morning,
This guy looks a lot like DioramaFreak who is also on Ebay. I can vouch for the parts. This work also looks like AnBri-RCs stuff, who was also from Germany ( I miss that guy ) Sometimes a minor bit of cleanup is required but the metal is good enough to make some of the features working. Here is the Tiger 1 barrel lock in use. ( Continuing thanks to Sassgrunt for the chain bit! )
regards,
Painless

With my rivet counter hat on, remember the window for travel locks on the tiger is very narrow, if that's something that matters to you!!
