As many of you know the Trumpeter King Tiger has a full interior and I am in need of a 1/16 KingTiger engine. I dont want to buy the whole kit, I just want the engine parts, and I only need them long enough to make molds of them then I can return them.

I am happy to pay anyone who has this kit a rental fee for the parts!!

Thanks!

I'm making my own from pics and metal and plastrux parts. But if you should make any I'd be willing to pay you for it.

How difficult would the mold be to create,then how many molds should be needed to cast say 20 engines? And the cost of resin? Would members pay 30.00$ for a nice cast engine?

PM me if anyone is serious about me making you one. I will buy one if I must but wanted to avoid it.

For an RC that complete engine would be impractical IMO... just a rough upper half..maybe not even that is good enough
