Hallo,
as an alternative to the Jagdtiger with the many small parts
I bought something to screw.....

Into these sides, bushings for the swing arms must be pressed in:

Image

Image

Many worm screws had to be screwed into the counter-bearings for the torsion bars:

Image

The counter bearings were then screwed to the sides:

Image

The bearings of the track adjuster was next step:

Image

The suspension arms had to be assembled:

Image

Image

Here the parts of the lower super structure:

Image

And then happens what always is happening ..... I forgot to snap pictures ...

The parts screwed together:

Image

Image

Image

Next, the motors with the worm gear were screwed in from the inside:

Image

The Transmission:

Image

Image

Image

Then the track adjuster should be mounted, here the parts:

Image

Image

Image

Sprockets mounted:

Image

Before the road wheels can be mounted.....

Image

A great suspension:

Image

Well, then quickly the chains fitted and voila:

Image

Image

That's it.
Coming soon here again.
Thank you for looking.

Yes, it is!
Precise parts
A pleasure to screw it together
And the real little Torsionbars...
