Woz,
I particularly like those hinges...*blink**blink* ;o) Another cool one of a kind tank coming to light.

Just curious, what size nozzle are you using, the heat shroud on the exhaust is something that I would never achieve on my 0.4?

WOW

[Woz]

Thanks

Well I woke up this morning to find I'd deleted the entire openscad file for this build . I still have the STL files but I can't do any changes to them.

@WW - I have 0.4mm nozzles. The heat shroud is just a 0.6mm high rectangle with r=0.6 holes through it. Printed at 0.15mm.

Aha, all is now clear, printed flat and then wrapped. I thought you had printed it as a cylinder with holes in. I was beginning to get all excited.

You are not alone in deleting Openscad files in error, I have done that a few times, and as you say, it is a one way street.

blimp gave me some Pz38t R/C parts and the gearboxes slotted straight in-





Turret rotation sorted-




and came up with a way to make the suspension work -




Now I need to make some fake leaf springs.

That is some impressive design work going on there, love the way that everything fits together so neatly. Will you print your own tracks or use existing ones?

[Bogeyman]

Top work Woz, loving this unusual build, I can't recall ever seeing one in1/16, keep it coming.

Thanks

@WW I've printed the tracks-

I was going to use Pz3 tracks but when I got down the doing the running gear I realised that the PzI has single road wheels with two rows of guide horns and the Pz3 has double road wheels with a single row of guide horns. A lot of work to do but on the plus side I'll have tracks ready for my PzII

Wow Woz this looks fantastic! How have I missed it till now?

You guys all have such mad skills I don't know why I bother, scratch building a tank from printed parts. I suck.
