Phill's King Tiger build
Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2009 1:40 pm
Just about finished the Sherman (pics soon), so I thought I'd make a start on the kitty cat.
Parts:
Impact:
T/U's
Late tracks and sprockets
brass elevator arm
P/E set
Jamara 480 BB motors (I might go back to the originals)
Schumo
barrel and muzzle brake
tow cables
Antenna mount
Resin exhaust armour
Headlight
Idler mount blocks and drums
Darryl Products
Transmission strengthener
Idler axel upgrade
Eto
Wheel bearings
The lower hull is almost complete. I temporarily installed the original Tamiya idler gear so I could do a test run in the backyard. I'm finding that with the Jamara 480's, the tank is way to fast, so I might revert back to the original Tamiya motors.
I also started building the etched mud flaps and jack block mount.
