Post by Saxondog »

Much more to come guys,just a taste. The real story has to be told of a Jagdpanther,two guys and a new evolution in design. Notice one key point here,the date these video's were produced.

Hi Cliff, Little has been done other than running in the tracks, working out the tension adjustment and some minor work,between school and winter I must admit little progress,I stand ashamed.

Finally completed the drive today after school, will test this out tomorrow if the weather holds. Then I also decided to weld the upper gun house seams with a solid bead full length. The kit was designed to rivet, but many people have access to welder or here in the states a small flux core wire feed unit can be purchased for under 200 us dollars.

So welding it is. Pictures soon guys, I just want to complete the Jagdpanther then post a series of photos, This has all been to promote this design type as a 1/6th scale kit under 2000.00 anyone can build.

cheers Blake

Well guys in the beginning there was an idea, laser cut 18ga steel. The Jagdpanther began as this.
Jagdpanther 1/6 scale gun house side panal
Jagdpanther 1/6 scale gun house side panal
Rear Panel in the flat.
Rear Panel in the flat.
The laser cutter is amazing, same company FOA used from the start. But this design is my own, created to work with my original suspension design. Panzer Suspension System

I just think this level of quality would be popular and affordable for so many more Hobbyist. Well more to come.

cheers Blake

Good Morning, Saxondog,
This looks really good. + nothing like drifting a 35 ton Tank Destroyer. ;o) Affordable 1/6 scale is definitely in my sights for the future.
regards,
Painless
