SOV, how might I be able to contact Derek to get some of those hooks?SovereignZuul wrote:Painless. If anything they are still not over enough.
Doing detail parts today, random batch, no drive just what I felt like.
The hooks from Derek. Wow, if the Tamiya Tiger is as nice as these pieces I can't believe what I started with. Still, as nice as they are, not without flaws I needed to correct...
The hook had way to much sway inside the standard fit mount for it, seen on the right hook. I narrowed if a tiny bit to remove this "play" so the hook is always straight (left).
Stylish...
..and functional! (That's one of my big potential headaches solved nicely! Thanks again Derek!)
The Voyager Brass gun cleaner/tow cable mount had a problem. It was cut in a way that all five "holes" were the same size! This is not the case, as the tow cable is significantly larger in diameter than the cleaning rods. Took some careful work but I fixed this issue so the tow cable fits, before it was not even close. I want to make some new cleaning rods as well, the old ones don't satisfy me anymore. Going to make them our of wood this time, maybe reuse some of the older brass pieces.
Off to play WoT tonight, thanks for stopping in.
