Missing sherman piece.

Post by Rad_Schuhart »

Hi guys. I've lost one tamiya sherman shaft (the shaft that keeps the road wheels together)

Axels modellbau has the parts out of stock
Seidl no longer ships outside germany (WTF!!!)
And jason's store is closed.

So if any of you has one shaf out there I'll give some cash. I preffer to buy from any of you a shaft instead of buying an entire shaft bag to a shop.

Hi! I have no idea how difficult to make would be. It is like you said, straight with grooves, but inside has a thread for the screw.

Could you use thick wall styrene tube and a couple of self tapping screws? Wouldn't be perfect, but there shouldn't be too much stress on the road wheels?

Lol Hi Jackalope. I still owe you a zimmerit king tiger set (I wont forget) so hope he opens the shop soon so I can order one for you and make him send it straight to you. I keep checking every two weeks or so.
