I have bought the barrel from Asiatam. I will post pictures of the barrel tomorrow.

Have worked tonight on the upper hull and drilled holes for the bolts. Pictures will follow on this tomorrow also

Steenv, what did you use to assemble the aluminum lower hull? Epoxy? JB Weld?

Hi Steen,

I looked for metal barrel on Asiatam site...no luck.. maybe I turn down a KT barrel...

Also, where did you find the machined 'armor' bolts??

THANKS!

hi all, just a quick reply before going to work

I use a special aluminium glue that has a 15 minutes working time to give me time enough to work with the parts

the bolts are from http://www.wecohe.de" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
the barrel is names jagdpanther barrel at asiatam, but it actually is a very nice scale fit for the elephant. Will post pictures tonight so that you ca nsee the barrel "premounted"

cheers

Ohh yeahh - I am very very happy with the parts from you - Its a lot of fun building it

Please, I still need the small parts, and by the way - roadwheels monting L metal arms, do other useally make them from scratch or do you have these also

The bolts are just great. I bought 2 bags from wecoe, and they add a great look to the overall Elephant
