Thanks Philipat!
I certainly didn’t work on this beauty for the best part of six years to leave her high and dry...
As for transatlantic shipping, I have ended up sending the Tamiya Tiger to California and the Pak 40 to Canada!
My Panzer IV, Stug conversion and super Taigen Tiger are still unsold though...

Hello my friend,
Can't leave the most popular build on this forum section unfinished. Even I've resumed my build as well. Hope the workshop change over went/is going well.
Now hurry and take your time when you can completing the masterpiece!

Well, when Mr Zuul starts to 'hassle' me then I better listen!
Fear not, I have not forgotten or given up. Luckily the shed transition is almost complete, although my priority has to remain my 1/35 diorama...
So watch this space!
In the meantime, here are some images of the sheds...

on the more recent HL Tigers they have added two securing strips on each side – these were only used on early models
The side strips were not used
at all on this standard turret bin (narrower at the front than the back).
They were used only on the previous model, a wider bin (1.4 meters wide) with
parallel sides running straight fore-aft.
