3D printable Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer

[50koruny]

Preparations for the production are almost done, but there is much more things to do like i have expected (like everytime ).

In the past months i have done some automatic wire straightener and cutter.I need this thing to make about 200 pieces of the pins for the tracks for every kit.
Even right now i am printing parts for the Hetzer.
I have decided to use copper wire handles for kits, because printed handles are not perfect.I have prepared some handy jig to make that handles fast.
Something like stamper.

This things have to be useful even for the next releases, so i can make next tank faster.
I dont have to spend 2 weeks with cutting wires for the prototype tracks next time, for example.

Few images for the people without facebook:

Thank you very much, both.

Few another pictures of the battlefield.You can see armoured train and lot of other war machines behind our place.
We need to make that battlefield best as we can to be adequate to that amazing location.

8/29/19 we have biggest event of the year, demanded to the national uprising day.Lots of the real historic vehicles, military history clubs, army, some stunts and attractions and around 100 RC tanks in 1/16 scale like everytime.

And the battlefield is right next to all of that incredible full sized military hardware... even an armored train.... wow!

Thank You.Yes.This is an incredible place for the RC tank battleground .

I have some updates for the Hetzer project .

Assembly and printing guides are ready for the translation.
It was a huge task.Its obvious on the first picture.
Guide is really huge, containing more than 650 pictures.
I hope it can be translated fast, because i want to deliver first few kits and unknown quantity of STLs before christmass.
My 3D printer farm is estabilished and working on the Hetzer every day.Stash of the parts is growing fast.
There are at least 4 (in)complete kits in my room.Every day more and more parts, faster and better.

This looks great, may I ask what the cost of the completed kit is going to be

Cheers, Lee.

Thank you both.Nice from you.

Price.Yes.I have thinked a lot about that as i wanted to make that price acceptable for everybody.
Its going to be 350-360€.I need to count total price for the hardware to make final decision for that price.
There are 47 bearings, complete drivetrain, 4 servos, 10 magnets, 93 screws, 130 nuts and other hardware included in that price.
You get everything what you need, excepting control unit, battery, transmitter and receiver.
Model was updated so there are openable hatches (all), IR battle capability and you can place SMD LED inside Notek front light.
