sherman turret correction

[bubbajoexx]

here is how to fix the turret you need to cut the buttom turret ring at the seam then reinsert it into the turret bottom and glue it solid if cut correctly it will slip right in once you cut the front lip of the ring then shorten the attaching posts in the top of the turret the same amount the ring has been rased

Excellent work bubbajoexx. I would love to see how you sorted the suspension. How does it run now?

go for it

the tank has some problems but they are almost all fixable if you spend some time on it and for the good news you can replace the plastic hull with the tamiya lower hull in the process of doing one
