Andy this is probably the same item that Alwyn is talking about although it is not marked as "ABER",
It is 8.90 Euros
Again a PE Brass Star but from---
http://www.tank-modellbau.de
Find it on Tiger 1 accessories.

Andy I think the PE star I highlighted does press into shape to mount in the position your picture shows BUT I have been wrong before, :haha: :haha:
That's the trouble with 2D pictures on a dealers site.
It is titled as an "FUG 8" it is 6 pointed and comes with accessories.

Andy I have just downloaded the ABER PDF,
All I can say is your welcome to it,
I can live a long and happy life and still retain both my sanity and my eyesight by avoiding this kind of accuracy :haha: :haha:

Yep I think you will need a microscope and miniature handling waldos with that one! My eyesight, patience quota, and finger dexterity would definitely rule that out for me. On the other hand when it's finished it will look stunning.
