Hello All
Does anybody know of anyone who sells either resin or 3D printed rockets for a Sturmtiger?
Many thanks for any advice.
Cheers
Jonh

I used only the had (from that same supplier, excellent stuff) to place in the barrel.

Just the one piece? Can you tell me the diameter of the hole please and what brand ST is it? I'd like to make sure that it will fit. I'm at work at the moment so I'll have to wait till I get home and fired up the printer to have a look before I can give you a price.

Hi Patrick.
Barrel internal diameter is 27mm but I would think the rocket would need to be 26mm to avoid an interference fit.

Okay i had to make new design with an outer diameter of 26mm, roughly 33mm in height and two different heads. Hollow on the inside with a slot for a barbecue stick to be inserted in for positioning in the barrel.

£6 for two excluding postage.
