Got a pak 35/36 & pak 40L46
1/35 kits.
So if it one o those it's ok, I already have them
But once I done, I be looking at flak 88 to do

[Will01Capri]

New Finished Work
Too many projects haha

Some have seen the HL 230 Tiger engine i copied off a part that was kindly gifted to me


However for people wanting an early version HL 210 engine with the triple filters, this is now mostly done also



Yes i can also do versions with mad exhausts & superchargers etc if required. We can also play with exhaust manifolds if we want to make a 8 cylinder engine which looks similar haha

Are these files somewhere so we can try printing our own engines?

I'd be happy to print one off if you would like one, just pm me.

I started on an 88, based off of the Merit 1/18 scale version - so I think we have that one covered as soon as I get my finger out and finish it We don't have a German 105mm howitzer tho?

Talking dirty there. German 105 Howitzer, who got a model we can use to measure off?

Question, the 88, will it have removable axles and steering axles?
I want to go mad on that one, no pressure haha.
I just bought in 10 different mini size ballraces soni can use to bearing up axles and wheels for these trailer unta etc

Looking at the Dragon 1/35 kit, the carridge seems to be common with the PAK40? I have a 105mm SP Hotchkiss conversion that looks like it would pass muster with a different muzzle brake, so all we need to do is connect the dots and come up with a gun shield (and find enough hours in the week to crack on with it )

Well i have some spare hours...............................
On flight to Japan (10hrs) and the screen on my seat is broken! Doh!
THey have given me some free internet access to access whilst i have some marginal battery life. So currnelty volume and brightness turned low as possible to extend as long as possible.

But since i have some hours to kill, why don't you guys get a Jet up here to pass on some models for me to measure up and turn into CAD?

Oh hang on a second, i just remembered a problem with this...... they don't let you on the flight with a set of vernier calipers as they look like a dangerous weapon! Great.
In that case maybe i revert to plan B.


Air Hostess, yes i will have the rest of your beer please, now would be good
