Which for the amount of work you have done Christian seems like a very reasonable price. What an amazing project ! Well done again

hello

that is a good question. i want the manuel ready and 10 kits ready at home bevor i will start selling the kit.
that sounds not so problematikaly but mostly happens something ;-/.
next weekend im short at time because of my girlfrinds removal, than my dad is in the hollidays that means for me i cant produce during the week for 3 weeks. because of my jop, im only home at the weekends.
thats all togther made it hard to me to say exactly when im able to sell this kit.

im sorry for that it takes longer and longer.

i just tried the t34 roadweels,

thay are useable but a lidel bit to big in size, the distance between last roadweel and transmisionsweel are real close.

I did a scratch built cromwell (no where near as nice as yours) I also used T34 road wheels/pz3 tracks but I had Daryl Turner create some smaller drive sprockets.
Link to some pictures of the sprockets

I would very much like to get your kit once it is on the market :)
