Wow.This is a very low price.
This Hetzer is inaccurate and simply (sorry), but its still very cheap for the 3D printed kit, no?
It must be printed in 45 hours if you want to make 3€/hour, for example.

The only way they can print it for that money is if they have lots of printers so that one full set can be printed within a day....
Got to say that yours is far superior

Yes.Thank you.Both.
I dont want to compete with somebody or disparage somebodys work.
I think i need another one printer for the start.And a little bit better like my actual printer, because it need too much postprocessing.

For now, i have ordered the non-printed parts for the next two Hetzers.
I have figured out the biggest question - bad access to the driving axle.I have resolved this question with some magnets.Now, completed axle can be removed by releasing two screws and this two pairs of magnets.Thanks to this, driving axle can be assembled outside the vehicle.
Tomorrow i receive some fillaments, so i can make some new test prints of the upper hull with workable hatches, where i want to put mount for the IR mushroom and the main switch.
And i have ordered 176RPM gearboxes instead of the 281RPM.I think it can have a little bit torque.281RPM is even too fast i think.

Edit: I have started to do some BoM, so here is bearings list with approx. prices :

8x 623zz - 3€
8x mf62zz - 10€
25x mr72zz - 13€
2x F625zz - 0,6€
2x 605zz - 0,4€

This is 27€ only for the bearings.This not going to be cheapest build on the market.
If i do Kit, i do Kit with all parts, including all that bearings, screws and completed propulsion system.
