Now, those are very nice. I was going to smack talk you about how much money ,and effort, you're putting into this tiger. Then I look at my Oddball Sherman and... I just shut up and walk away.MrChef wrote: ↑Mon Dec 18, 2023 7:35 pmGotcha, heres the Taigen ones that i got from Forgebear-airmancurran1 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 18, 2023 7:22 pm It's that front curve I'm talking about. The PZ covers are flat. Unless that really doesnt' matter, just as long as I put on good covers.

Ok. I finally fixed the Offending Head lights, and put some weld around the turret lift points.

Re: My Tiger1
You mean Lowering it? Not sure if I want to go that far. Right now I'm happy fixing the Glaring issues with this. If anything, I'd swap the wheels for the better mato or taigen set.airmancurran1 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 02, 2024 7:54 pm [quote="Meter rat" post_id=348032 time=<a href="tel:1704214490">1704214490</a> user_id=9562]

Just pulling your leg.
Re: My Tiger1
You can pull my leg all you like. That is where I drew the line.
Funny no one mentions 3D printing this mod instead of hack and slashing your way through it.
I have ZERO desire to do "that" much.

Re: My Tiger1
The repositioning of the HL turret is a done thing but not for the faint hearted, I never did it either.
When the turret is rotated you can see the error but until then it looks ok!

Re: My Tiger1
Chris it's modding the center turning point or axis of how the turret is mounted. There used to be clear instructions how to do this mod here including pics. There are some members who have pics of what they've done. Here is a link to a description of one way it's done. including pics-
