and the doors fold down
The next job was to fit the elevation and recoil servos to the gun, which was much messier and more frustrating than I had anticipated. The problem was that I hadn't considered the interaction between the size of the servos and the gun components, which meant that assembling things initially proved not just difficult and frustrating but downright imposssible.
Back to the cad redesign and redesign several components including the gun base and eventually everything fitted together and functioned! 
Phew! Anyway in the middle of all the frustration and cursing, my suspension parts arrived fron Germany - Hurray! So that cheered me up no end. After sorting the servos, I moved on to getting the suspension fitted and finishing the design for the roadwheels. I was a little confused at first as there were more parts than I needed, and then I realised that the extra parts were for fitting to a metal chassis so I didn't need them.
Then the fun started with the printed road wheels, but it only took a couple of redesigns to get the wheels fitting perfectly, the outer road wheel is a press fit onto the inner road wheel, and the inner wheel fits nicely onto the axle with a screw retainer.
and all printed and fitted complete with tracks.
Next I move on to getting the cabin of the tank fitted out

.The limited slew is common amongst SPGs as really the impact of sideways ammunition detonation would do nasty things to the vehicle structure, but basically the Nashorn was intended as a highly mobile sniper gun for attacking other tanks/vehicles. It's obvious downfall was the lack of armour but given the long range of the 88mm it didn't really need to mix it with the opposing armour.
