My father in law had a '48 model. He had taken the battery out to use in something else and finches nested in the battery compartment. I did a painting of it...

Well, I think my question "Can you tell the difference between 12k and 16k?" and the answer is "Yes". This piece is as small as my index fingernail. 14.9mm x 15.2mm x 2.15mm

So, I revised the part, but to accomodate the depth I had to make the part .7ml thicker than before which means the cockpit base will possibly have to be trimmed a little, or not. The pieces are printing now.

Yeah, when I saw that I thought "Brilliant" and "I'm an idiot" both at the same time LOL

:bash: do the letters D-U-H mean anything to you!?

I did see one version with teeth and thought of you Saul @Sharkmouth and also thought it would be a cool version!

Hmm, I didn't think about that. I am not sure of the radius and width of the tire. If you have those specs I can be more accurate and exact. I can make the tire, then enlarge it somewhat and use that to make the indention.

Thank you Saul! My goodness, you have everything. Here is the Blender image of the part I have made. I have my printer set up but my resin is at home and I am at the store at the moment, so tomorrow I will print four of these. These are the walkaround images I found in case anyone is interested:

The "C61" part IS on the sprue but looks nothing like the drawing, and is X'd out on the sprue drawings as "not used". There is a little drawing on the instructions that says to make the part and thin as shown. Really? I have created the part in Blender and will see if I can get one of the...

Thanks guys! Ok, so I dismantled the disaster of the front wheel well. The problem is that there are no register tabs of any kind and everything is butt joined and there is NO way to know if you have it right. I took Paul's advice and dry fitted with tape to see how things should be assembled so...

The fit of the first step pieces are absolute shit! My goodness. No wonder he was scared.

My friend John Montgomery purchased this kit to build, but after reading the reviews and looking through some build threads he decided it was too difficult for him and gave it to me to see if I was brave enough to try it. I am not sure "brave" is the right word, but "naieve" may be more...

I have several colors of EZ line if you need some Bob @moon puppy

FINALLY! I have no doubt there are many many flaws, but I think all of the physical problems I have had while working on this have left a sour taste, and I am tired of working on this one. I DO feel better finally and can sit at the bench longer now. I had several other photos of this model, all...

Great seeing everyone! It is cool to put faces with names. Y'all know so much about the military vehicles that it blows my mind! T-this and P-that and I have no clue what you are talking about. Mostly because I forget everything. I had a guy come in asking me to get a Tornado for him and I said...
