Hi, great build! Which metal track holders did you use on the Turret sides?

Thanks, just what I need for my Tamiya KT! Except I can't seem to find any available anywhere....

You can 'find' them here, but- and perhaps you've already seen this- they're currently out of stock. I think Axels is the exclusive dealer for Schumo parts, and so getting them elsewhere is unlikely unless a member here has a set to sell. You might try putting a speculative order in, however with Axels. Some members do, and eventually, get the bits they need.whitewolf wrote:Thanks, just what I need for my Tamiya KT!

If you happen to be in the UK, the postal charges, which were always something of a niggle, are now astronomical (and there may be other charges lurking...VAT, Customs etc..depending on value)
For example, a 3.50 (£2.94) Euro MG will attract postal charges of around 24 Euros (roughly £20 )
That's all very sobering.

Hello
exists here, but in plastic, I personally used it without worries, just drilled and put a small brass nail before gluing to strengthen fixing, on the part in contact with the turret

Schumo stuff seems really difficult to obtain these days! I hand wondered if it was still being manufactured? The postal charges for Germany do seem ridiculous these days.43rdRecceReg wrote:You can 'find' them here, but- and perhaps you've already seen this- they're currently out of stock.

Re: Tamiya Tiger II (H) Sla. 16
Complimenti per gli optional che hai scelto per il KT Tamiya.
Uno nota stonata è aver scelto un modello da un gioco e non da una foto reale.
Ho fatto una ricerca veloce nei miei libri sul KT e non ho trovato ne la colorazione ne un KT con tutte quelle maglie dei cingoli di scorta.
Buon lavoro e buon hobby a tutti

Re: Tamiya Tiger II (H) Sla. 16
I agree with you about the excess of spare tank tracks adorning the Turret but the colour as a base was certainly in use although it was exactly that a base upon which a proper camo design was affixed,Capitan America wrote:Complimenti per gli optional che hai scelto per il KT Tamiya.

Re: Tamiya Tiger II (H) Sla. 16
Hi, which glue did you use to secure the plastic wheel inserts into the metal sections?
