Hi all......does anyone know from these photos what is used to hold the Jerry can on the left ? I've made the shelf for the Jerry cans, but haven't a clue what's used to restrain them. Is it rope / chain or something else and how would it attach to the tank.....? Any help or advice would be great
Thanks

It looks like it is the same bracket that is use to hold the tool box.

Ahh...ok so that would be flat metal strip I think ?

The jerrycan is standing on the standard "frame" for the toolbox. This frame doesn't have a bottom panel;



Higher up, the jerrycan is held in place by a simple metal strip which the crew have welded to the hull wall.

This Tiger, "123", is a very early model and has many features that are not reproduced on commercially available 1/16 Tigers.

That's great info David and the photos are fantastic...thank you guys.....my tiger is a late version....I didn't realise....oops as the tray is now in place. I know there's many variants with tigers.....do you think a late version would ever had one in place ? If not it's a lesson learnt for me.
Cheers

Late Tigers didn't have the "tray", but the crews did sometimes make up holders for jerrycans, like these ones;

Thanks David......I will try to remove the tray and replace with the made up holders. Your info and pics have helped immensely with what I want to do to this Tiger.
Cheers
