RE: Tiger Paint
Hey There Derek Hows you bud? I don't think the workers painted the finished colour in the areas you mention! In fact! at the latter end, they were going out in red oxide to painted by the crews in the field! I'm sure some one else will step in here and furnish you with more info! Take care there buddy Stu

RE: Tiger 1 Jack Block
Hey Derek my boy How are you? It was a solid slab of wood with the two steel bands running ACCROSS the grain near the outside edge! the size on you model will be as near scale as makes no difference, Was held in place by four corner pieces of metal bracket on the hull, I think it was a leather strap held it in place. But! I could be wrong! No doubt someone will Korrect me Have a good one Stu

RE: Heng long recoil
Hi I had a look for an answer for you but as you don't identify the tank it's going into it's a bit difficult to say! There are guys out there that put Tammy recoil in HL's! Your best bet would be to do a search of the Forums! sorry not more help. Stu

RE: How much can I get for this stuff?
Hi You would probably be better with E Bay or on a forum site! most of the guys that are into this modify them! You have to remember, a non Smoke and sound can be had for about £35 new! so keep that in mind. Also depends on what you paid! Did you have something in mind? Sorry I can't be of more help!

RE: HL Panzer III
Thank you for that Tap don't worry about making anyone edgy! Lol! Healthy debate is no bad thing! It's all in the interest of the hobby. I probably misread the thread!... As you pointed out, they only start to degrade when not in use over a period of time! My Dad was in North Africa, Royal Army Service Corps, attached to the British Eighth Army,He was a Seargent and his job was the recovery of AVF's and the crews for repatriation regardless of nationality, He once told me the tracks on the Panzer were much better than the Allied armour.

RE: HL Panzer III
Hey there It would appear that my info on the tracks comment about the quality of steel on the P3 is a little inaccurate, for that my apologies! Apparently, on the P3 tracks every third link\pad was of higher quality! information came from Achtung Panzer website! Cannot guarantee the reliability of this information tho. Stu

RE: HL Panzer III
Hi I know you do very very nice work, and I'm new to 1\16th tanks. I appreciate constructive comments too! I would not like to offend anyone, just sharing what I was told! hope you don't mind? Tap asked if the tracks were stainless, but the info I received was that it was a very high quality steel alloy and not prone to rusting! Trying to find the article I read but it was on another forum. Best regards Stu

RE: HL Panzer III
Hi, nice P3. I have to agree with Tap on this one! Re Tracks mate! Apparently, I read that rusty tracks on a Tank like this would have likely got you shot! Lol! But I wasn't there of course! I did the same with a P IV, and received the same comment! so I repainted them, the quality of the German steel alloy was of such a good grade they didn't attract rust when in use. Hope you don't mind the comment? Keep up the good work Triton

RE: AFV Models
Hey There Derek What happened to the Tiger 1? Lol! Sometimes the Hub caps are a tight fit other wise a tiny spot of CA! Cos you might need to take them off! Auto etch primer is fine, I think a lot of the guys use auto primer! a lot less expensive! I personally prime, assemble, then finish coat them if it's German Armour!.. just remember not to paint over threads or contact surfaces that may need CA! Not sure of the bolt ring? is it a washer? if it is! No glue! Hope this helps, I'm sure others will step in with better advice as I'm a Tank virgin! only being doing it since Xmas and on my second build! Cheers from bonnie Scotland Stewart

Hi Derek It's Stewart in the UK! I cannot comment on the Zimmerit product personally, however, Welsh Dragon are an extremely good company to deal with! Steve there is pretty slick and there dispatch is phenomnly fast even to your neck of the world! As for your second Question, I will happily take photo's of my early tiger 1 and try!!! And post them to you! However I am not that good with putting pic's on forum's! If you like if you supply an E mail address, even better? I will send them direct as my Tiger 1 is in the middle of an upgrade! May I thank you for your sevices in those far flung places! God bless you my friend. Stu
