I see that prior to serving on the Eastern Front with Herman Bix's Tiger 1, Gefrieghter Griffin was in Tunisia where presumably he learnt about stealing "JACKS", seriously Tom, truly a credit to your Tank building skills. shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Gidday Mr Hugill
Could you do me a favour please and measure your turret position from the outer drivers glasis plate to the mantlet(where the ring of dome bolts are) and then from the centre of the stowage bin outer to the centre of the air filter cover on the engine hatch.
Im am designating the Tamiya Tiger a a datum dimensioned gauge & want to verify or otherwise the position of the turret on my H/L Tiger.
Thanks

A truely international jack stealing ring. :haha:
Started the illegal trade in Africa with the help of Bedouins and needed to expand the market supply to Europe where the mark up was better and the business appeared more 'legitimate' !!!
Laundered money through various nightclubs in the big cities by overcharging for drinks on the register then topping up with dirty cash- being hired by the club owner under duress as "cleaning services" and recieving the cash back as payment, how can ya loose ?!!!
Um, was that out loud :O 8)

Bloody jack thieves! In this case however it's my fault as I took the jack off for repaint inch and haven't put it back on yet!

Hey the chain you send went on the sturm tigers pistol port! I've bought some fine 1mm stuff for the M51 which I might add. The tamiya pipes come braided like that! I'm still playing warthunder, it seems like no ones flying any more :/ so I've gone with the crowd playing tanks
