Zoom, Zoom!!

We did miss your interesting verbiage Chris.

@Greg Kimsey Your 3D modeling skills are way up there!

@paddy DIET That's DIE with a T. Blueberry? If so I will take one!

Look into the Das Werk figures and do some part switching. That is why I bought multiples. It also makes sense as I have multiple vehicles. Fortunately Some of them come with figures (drivers) at least.

3:00 PM Central Time. Been working on the engine of my 251. Just about have it ready to mount in the chassis and changed some of the assembly order.

I usually get from Drill Bits Unlimited, which is comparable to Drill Bit City. I suspect that they are comparable in price as well. https://drillbitsunlimited.com

Welcome back Daniel. That Russian armor looks good!

I don't have software yet! I bought a desktop CAM machine that will be coming with software that does convert photos like this to a 3D relief STL file in order to MACHINE things like this in 3D relief. It is due sometime this month as I was one of the early buyers of the kickstarter and they...

I had forgotten about this build Tim. It turned out really nice. Today I watched a UTube video from an Australian armor museum that restored one of these such that it can be driven. It had no original engine or drive gear and they had to fabricate 3 of the suspension units. The engine they...

Your build is coming along nicely Tim! As to the figures they are due in Monday according to UPS. As I set them to be delivered to work, that is when we will reopen after the New Years break. I have been doing super detailing on my 251 engine. Have found so many things that are just wrong on...

That title plate would be awesome if there was a way to do a 3D relief of it.

@Sharkmouth Saúl how do you keep track of ALL the T-34 variants details? It seems there are dozens and dozens depending on factory and other things. Have you ever set down and done a count of all the possible variants?

My plans: Finish the SdKfz2251/1 Finish some other shelf projects. Pick out a new kit to build and hopefully finish. I also have a big new tool and tooling due to show up in the next few weeks so I will be learning Blender and learning how to make it do what I want it to do.

Very sorry for your loss June. John will be missed. We are loosing too many of the great people these days. Thank you so much for reaching out to us. We always enjoyed John's posts, stories, and descriptions of how he chose to do things. When he joined in on our Zoom meetings, he was always...

As I have two tanks I ordered two of them as well as two each of two other German figures. Also ordered some Winterketten tracks for my stug. Thought about getting a second stug kit with the Winterketten tracks, but decided against. Hopefully they should be decent figures and the double ups...

Glad you are on the mend. I have another surgery on my left thigh to remove the fatty tumor that insists on coming back. This will be number 3 for the same thing. :bang head

If they were machine screws I would have probably bought taps and pre-threaded the holes. I guess these are like mini sheet metal screws though. It probably could be possible to make some kind of tap for these as well but what a pain in the can.

Mark, I think you built more kits than everyone else combined.
