I was forgetting the standard HL switch is double pole. It makes sense now. Thanks for that.

The idea of a Kellys Heroes Tiger is completely unique, and it is interesting how many people think that those are genuine Tigers in the movie.

I have managed to scew the two halfs together and have added the front plate with zim and  spare track I have also filled in the gaps between the two halfs the next step will be to prime the whole tank.

You weren't forgetting that the KH Tiger turret was a different shape, along with the storage bin were you? We can't have an inaccurate model of an inaccurate imitation of the real thing on this forum you know!  ;D
